Try for our first & hubby doesn't want me to test yet!!

PCOS has made this journey so difficult. We have been officially trying to conceive since 2011 with one chemical pregnancy. After taking 1 year off and losing over 40 pounds, hubby and I decided to start trying again. This cycle started on 9/17. Femera 5mg cd 3-7, Ultrasound on 9/28 cd 12 (follicles 24 on right & 17 on left, uterine lining 6). I took a trigger shot @9pm cd 12. Went in on cd 14 for IUI. Hubby had a superstar sperm count at 21 million and the procedure went smoothly. Bd that same night just because. 2ww isn't that bad b/c I've been staying very busy. Around cd 17 I started noticing a funny feeling in my uterus (felt sore, but not like cramps) when we would bd and if I pressed down on the area. Hubby said it was probably b/c of IUI, but usually I have pain the same day if at all. I figured it may have something to do with the progesterone I started using that morning. He had to take it easy when we bd and still does. Fast forward to cd 24 and I noticed slight sensitivity to my breasts, but nothing major. Cd25 (11dpo) around 12:30pm I felt a sharp pain in my uterus,hoping that was the implantation of our little blastocyst. Around 2:40pm my breasts became extra sensitive. I should also mention that I have no appetite, difficulty sleeping, slight back pain, stuffy/runny nose, frequentl urination, and I'm extra thirsty. Hubby and I bd last night and I had the worse cramping after. It hurt so bad I could hardly go to the bathroom. I promised him I wouldn't test until next Monday (cd 33) when we come back from our anniversary cruise, but I don't think I'll be able to wait. I believe in my heart that we are finally pregnant. I'm taking the test with us on the cruise in case he changes his mind. I also plan on taking a urine and blood test at the VA on Wednesday morning, but I'm not going to call for the results.
