As far as the home pregnancy test...I know I will check mine early! I can't help it! I think day 10 or 11. It doesn't actually always register though. My friend took a bunch of tests and all negitive. She thought there was something wrong with her like a cyst or something because she was having symptoms and she was 4 months pregnant!! Wow. Some women just have low levels in the beginning. The progestorone does make you so sleepy!! All I did was sleep on it. Are you taking shots or gel? I did shots last time and am supose to do gel this time. Tomorrow I will find out if my cycle is canceled or if I progressed and will keep going. It is so aweful not knowing! I will let you know what I find out tomorrow. Pray for me!

Hi! I'm taking the suppositories-talk about nasty! They've got me taking them twice a day and a pad/panty liner is needed. Apparently, the side-effects aren't supposed to be as intense with the suppositories. I told my husband the day I was talking them and he laughed when I told him it smells like peanuts, LOL. He replied, "Hon, I think you'd put butter up there if it were thought to make you pregnant". I thought that was cute.

Regarding taking a test early, I was told it's not encouraged because the LH from the trigger could still be in my system and it would show a false-positive. I too thought you could test day 10 or 11 but I guess that's for women who aren't drugged up like us.

One note: My cervix is very tender and slippery. I'm assuming it's just from the IUI
catheter/suppositories.

I've never been pregnant before and I'm going nuts analyzing everything.

I hope your workup shows progress today, I'll be thinking of you. Please post when you can.
