Need a distraction...6 DPO

sbags08 · October 2009

I seem to be getting impatient earlier and earlier in my cycles as this whole TTC thing rolls onward. I had another IUI six days ago and I'm having the usual crampy and fluttery sensations (and of course convincing myself that its implantation).

So to distract myself I'll ask a few questions...

I'm still doing the clomiphene, ovidrel, prometrium cycle. Does the prometrium make anyone else feel bloated, crampy, and irritable? For the first couple IUI cycles I took it for signs of pregnancy (yup, I obsess) but now its just getting annoying. Have any of you had better luck on something different? I'm going to go over the options with my doc, I'm just curious.

Whats the soonest I should take a pregnancy test (for my sanity). Of course my doc suggests I wait for the blood test but then he sort of smiles and says, "whenever you feel its right." Uh...today is only 6 DPO and it feels right! Ha-ha So I need better advice than that. Suggestions?

Thanks in advance for the distraction!! : )
