  I always wait until 12dpo and continue testing until I get AF.

  Thanks so much. I am a rookie here.  Does 12 dpo mean, 12 days after? I appreciate your patience with my rookieness.

  Just until your late or your beta.

   

  Bwahahahaha....yeah, right! 

  I triggered on Friday too and plan on peeing on hpt cheapie every other day until I get a negative again. Then I'll probably test again here and there until AF or my beta.

  dpo means days past ovulation. If you test too soon after a trigger you can get a false positive, so its best to wait until at least 12 days after your shot, and if you are doing a trigger you should have O'ed 36 hours after the shot.

  Thanks for the clarification.  The whole trying to conceive world is completely foreign to me and my doctor's office is always slammed so I feel weird asking questions.  We had good results with 50mg clomid with 4 large over 20 follicles.  My only problem that they saw was that my lining was thin at the time.  Since it was my first cycle they decided to give me the trigger shot and just see what happens. 

  My main problem is that I don't get my period.  On Clomid is it easier to get your period?  Happy Sunday all and thanks for your advice again.

  Read "Taking Charge of Your Fertility", it is the bible when it comes to all things fertility. Also check out the Getting Pregnant board, which has lots of basic trying to conceive info. 

  As for Clomid, time will tell how you respond to it. Good luck.

  i was told not to test until 14 days after my trigger...she said i could test the morning of the 14th day... so if you triggered on Fri, test 2 Fridays later.

  or, you can test the trigger out.... POAS every day, you should get a BFP from the trigger....eventually you'll get a BFN once the trigger is out of your system.....then the next BFP would be real
