IUI tomorrow...2 que

Had my u/s yesterday and today - dr had seen one "really nice" 21 mm follie that he was super excited about (not me, I wanted several) and what could be other follies or cyst activity and he said my endo was "super lush" and he liked everything he was seeing.  So, I triggered Tuesday morning and will have IUI Wednesday night.  Now the 2ww starts over the holidays which means NO drinking!  It's going to be a LONG Christmas...

I do have two questions - first, after my last IUI in July, my periods are three days (usu 5 - 6) light, heavy, light...done!  Dr says no biggie, things change.  Anyone experience a change in their cycle like this?  Second, I am sure there are cysts in the RO and I am def tender there but does anyone else have more tenderness with injectables?

I am going to POAS tomorrow morning to see if I can get a + with the trigger (couldn't before so my urine probably doesn't metabolize HCG).  I really hope I can so I can POAS instead of depending on a BETA.

Thank you, ladies!!

    I did a single dose of Menopur 150 IU this cycle to mature a few more follicles before trigger. The 2 days after trigger, my ovaries hurt so badly I had to take Tylenol. They felt bruised! In speaking with friends who've used injects, it seems normal. Good luck!

    No IUI experience but my period length has changed over the past few years. I used to have 5-6 day cycles and now I'm down to 3. My dr. Say that was fine. I guess we should believe the doctors.
    Good luck today. I so hope this one works for you.

    I also don't have any experience but wanted you to know have my FX for you that this is it! 
    I am not sure how to say this without getting a "solicitation" warning so I guess I just say that I am not longer active on THIS site.

    I've had several IUI's and although the # of days of my cycle have not changed I've had other changes.  I have less PMS (cramping and moodiness) and a lighter flow.  I haven't experienced any noticable tenderness.  I was thinking it had more to do with the progesterone I've been on because the one month I didn't take it, AF was same as pre-IUI

    I will be having my IUI on Christmas eve day so no drinking for me during Christmas or New Year's. Boo!  It will be worth it though if it's a BFP:-)

    Sorry I have no IUI experience (yet) but I'm sending you good vibes and wishing you the best. 
    Also my cycles have gotten shorter over the past year. I just chalked it up to age... I don't know if that's why but now I feel like I should ask on my next visit.
