Has anyone POAS yet? My first one will be tomorrow morning.
I got my BFN this morning. Trying to figure out how I'm going to get through this work day without being a total B.

SA: Count/Motility = Good/Decent; Morphology = 6%
HSG: All clear
November 2015: 100mg of Clomid for 5 days, 1 -75mg injection of Follistim
4 mature follicles! - RE cancelled cycle (bummed)
Course of action is medication and TI May 2016: 100mg Clomid for 5 days, Estrace for 5 days, Mucinex for DH and I during ovulation week, 100mg progesterone & a baby aspirin until I get BFN (so of course I'm hoping to have to continue taking them). DH is now also taking a multi-vitamin with Zinc. Course of action is still medication and TI
@jamaicanqt lots of deep breaths and there is always next month. Was this your first iui?
This was our first medicated cycle but we did TI. DH is on the fence regarding iui and against ivf.

Sometimes it takes two or three times. Don't get discouraged. It rarely works on the first try. Stay strong!! I'm on my third medicated cycle now and have had two iuis already. This month was ti because I ovulated sooner than expected. My husband has super Sperm as my re says lol and there is nothing wrong with me. So this stuff just takes time.
Yeah it is still pretty early but we just BD this cycle since I had ovulated before my scheduled iui naturally. So I'm not really counting on this month.
Really feeling like AF is coming now. I think I'll be jumping into the next cycle earlier than expected. If I don't get AF by tomorrow morning I'm testing.
Has anyone done a HPT yet even though we have been told not to?? Did one this morning and got a BFP!! But so scared that it might be a false positive. My beta is Wednesday. I've been feeling more tired lately and nauseous on and off though so FX it's not false!
I've done a couple hpt's even though I said I would not. Faint positives 9 and 10 dpiui. Negative today. I'm cautiously optimistic. I purposely got the cheapest tests I could find, so I was not expecting much. I'm not sure if the faint positives were from the trigger or not, but I tested 11 and 13 days post trigger when I got the faint positive. Still waiting on beta which is also on Wed.

I did a HPT this morning and it can back positive! I'm trying not to get too excited, I go for my beta tomorrow morning. My trigger shot was 2 weeks ago Friday so I don't think it could still be in my system.
@kated0724 Unfortunately, it's hard to tell. It could be a great sign or a sign of impending AF. If only they could invent a home blood test (kinda like an insulin test).... dear science, get on it!
Fingers crossed for you! Only 2 more sleeps!!
Married to DH 10/6/12
TTC since 5/14
Unexplained with (controlled) hypothyroidism and suspected ovulatory dysfunction (but, I do ovulate on my own)
Clomid 50 mg 3/15 (unmonitored) - BFN
Clomid 50 mg + metformin 4/15 (unmonitored) - BFN
First RE appt. 5/15; Natural cycle 5/15 monitored with 2 mature follicles and Pregnyl Trigger (full dose) + prometrium - BFN
6/15 HSG - clear tubes & normal uterus; great PCT test results
TI - 100 mg Clomid + prometrium (AM & PM) + vaginal estrace (AM & PM) 6-7/15 (monitored) --> no additional response and thinned lining - BFN
TI - Injectables (follistim + Gonal-F, Ganirelix, & 1/2 dose Pregnyl) + prometrium (AM & PM) 9/15 --> 3-7 mature follicles (3 definites and 4+ that could have matured due to trigger) @ O -->BFN + 5 large cysts
Ahhhh this thread is starting to look more and more exciting! Today I'm 11dpiui and I haven't tested at all. Waiting for 14dpiui on Wednesday. DH and I are on vacation and I purposely only packed 2 hpts (and one is a backup in case I mess up somehow or want to test again the next day). Will be testing with FMU on Wednesday morning and I'm ready to move forward with my life either way. FX for all you BFPs!

Hi ladies... Hope you don't mind if I join in! Fingers crossed for everyone. I had my 2nd iui on Nov 22 after ttc for 2+ years so I took my first hpt the evening of 13dpiui and got a faint BFP. Line got darker with FMU 14dpiui but digi was negative late that day. Haven't done another digi (I've been too scared but think I will do it first thing tmrw) but have done several more frer line tests and one clear blue and the BFP are so faint!!! Now tonight I'm starting to have a few cramps. I had a chemical a year ago so I'm hoping this doesn't go the same way
@Drove2u So sorry about your results. I was really hoping you would have your BFP. Hopefully you will have a pleasant surprise with your beta or AF will come quickly so you can try again next cycle. Thinking about you!

@Drove2u I have not been very active on here lately, don't want to spread my pessimism. But I keep checking is with all my fingers crossed that you turned a test. Good luck tomorrow, thinking positive thoughts for you (really for that you actually are BFP, otherwise for AF to come quickly.)

Is anyone else completely over-rationalizing positive and negative results from their hpt's? For example, if it's negative, you're not producing enough hormones. But, it's its positive, it might be medications or a trigger shot, or some other fluke? Why do we torture ourselves? Two days to beta.
