test out your trigger? I have heard woman doing  this and never understand what it was? How do you know if it is truly a BFP or your trigger? I am just curious. TIA.

    I do. You basically have to test everyday. It is positive to begin with because of the HCG trigger, it will then become negative after so many days (6-11ish), & if pregnant, it will become positive again.

    I do - quite possibly because I am incapable of waiting for anything. I don't test everyday though. 

    It started back when I was doing IUIs. I tested the morning after the Ovidrel trigger to make sure it was in my system and then tested every other day until it was gone. I usually got a faint line on day 5 and nothing on day 7. 

    With this IVF, I will test out my trigger out of curiosity since I did a half dose of Novarel. I triggered Tuesday night. The surgery center tested this morning before ER so I won't test again until Saturday, and then again Monday before transfer. How dark the line is will decide if I test again. 

    I don't waste money on FRERs for this though. I use cheapie Wondfos I ordered in bulk from Amazon.com.
