I knew I shouldn't do it. Instead of reaching out to my TTC buddies to talk me out of it... I reached out to my wife, who did no such thing.

I knowwwwww that 7dpo is still super early. And especially since I didn't even use FMU. But since I've been having such strong symptoms and I was so impatient and I keep DREAMING about testing... (...okay, I had one dream where I was going to test, but didn't have a test on me...) ...I thought maybe, MAYBE I'd get a super faint line that would make everything better. At least for a little while, until the panic of "oh my God, this is actually real now" set in.

But now I've got one super negative test, no backup tests (payday is Friday), and I'm sort of bummed. Gonna go take a nap and cry about it.
