I took the trigger shot on feb 18 (16 days ago). My tests have been all over the place. I've had cramps every day since my IUI but the last couple of days they have gotten a little more intense. Sorta feels like AF cramps but then occasionally they don't.

I'm frustrated. Confused. Annoyed.

When is your Beta test?

amk0327, what kind of test did you use today? Digitals have much higher threshholds.

I used a FRER this morning. Yesterday I used a digital. All the other times I've used a FRER. I don't go in for a blood test until I get a positive hpt. If it's negative on Saturday then I stop taking progesterone and a couple of days later I'll start AF. Then this whole process will have to start all over again. :(

Hello everyone still reading up on everyone and keeping up to make well wishes for everyone. Im hearing of some great follicle sizes. Finger crossed. So please can I update you on my crazy ride... im CD 9.. my breast are still full and tender, im incredibly sleepy.. nauseated at times and headache comes and goes.. now remind u I had my AF on 14dpiui well I spotted didn't get a flow til 15dpiui and af over in 2days. I had a lighter flow than usual. So im waiting to O right now and I dont plan to opk and im out of hpt's. I really dont want to keep thinking about it but the possibility is still there.. im scared to test.. I just want to keep going on as if im about to O but I keep thinking what if.. easiest thing to eliminate all doubt is to just test.. but im so scared plus I dont have any more test... excuses I know.. please ladies tell me what u think or what should I do..

amommysluv, I say test and remove the doubt so you can move forward. I know how tempting it is to prolong the maybes. Best wishes!

Yes test mommysluv you never know :)

I agree TEST ammomysluv!! Good Luck!!

Amk- so sorry..but it's not over until AF shows... test again tomorrow with FMU and see what you get! I hope it's a BFP!!

Tcmc- if you did the trigger, it's almost guaranteed that you ovulated cause that's what its supposed to do. However, if you have doubts and just to keep sane... you can always request a blood test to confirm ovulation... I did that last time (they were already taking my blood to check my thyroid so I asked them if they could run progesterone too). I know how you feel.. try to hang in there!!!
We're in this TWW together! I hope we both get a BFP!!

Hey miracle you have a thyroid problem too ? When they did my blood work they had me see a specialist which in turn he told me if was overactive and i had graves disease. I am on medicine now so hopefull all is good i see him on the 17th

Miracle- thank you for encouraging words! I'm letting it go!
