THE HPT

This time after the IUI I felt some different symptoms. For starters, I had sharp pains and cramping much more than last time. My boobs don't just hurt, they are killing me. Like it hurts to put on a bra. A few days this week I was so incredibly tired I went to be at like 7:30 and 8:30 and slept through the night. I also have increased hunger, smell sensitivity (slight), major dizziness (almost passed out a few times) and very slightly nauseous.

Last time I took HPT way too early. This time I waited a little longer. The first test I took in the bathroom at work. I used a first response test. This was 8 days past IUI #2. I figured by this time the trigger shot should be out of my system because last time, I took the HPT I tested out the trigger and by day 7 after the IUI the shot was already gone.

HPT FS # 1 11/18/15 8 days after IUI #2- Came up negative, but there was a tiny piece of pink on the second line. It didn't go all the way down. I counted this a negative, but I had hope since it was so early. Plus it was in the middle of the afternoon, which is not the most concentrated urine.

HPT FS #2- 11/19/2015 9 days after IUI#2-  I took it first thing in the morning and it showed up with a very faint pink line. It was positive.

HPT # 3- 11/20/2015 10 days  cheap Rite Aid brand- I took this at work again in the middle of the afternoon and it came up negative.

HPT #4- 11/21/15 11 days after IUI #2- Cheap rite aide brand- I got a very faint blue plus sign first thing in the morning. 



I will keep testing in the mornings because it seems like that is the best time. My beta is scheduled for 11/30, so I am a ways away. I expect that the tests should continue to get darker in the next few days. I guess we will find out.
