Update I think I'm out-UPDATED TODAY

Well, I am 13 dpo/iui. I took a cheap internet strip last night at 12dpo and it was negative. It is so weird bc at 5 days post iui I had cramping and a dull feeling especially on one side. Since then nothing. Usually before AF my boobs are sore, and I always have AF cramps during my 2ww.

I have not had any period type cramping and my breasts are not hurting at all.

If it wasn't for the test I would think that maybe I have a chance because of the lack of symptoms.

What do you think?

Update

It looks like I'm out this cycle. I took a FRED yesterday and it was negative. I never went in for a beta, I honestly don't see the need to (just another copay when I'm pretty sure a home test would have showed up by now). I am currently 17dpo with some cramping for a few days but no AF. I guess it is just a waiting game now. I stopped the crinone three days ago.

How long can this crinone delay my period. I am positive I ovulated 17 days ago

Re: Update I think I'm out

I think you should test with FMU with and FRER

Do you have a beta scheduled?

No but I'm suppose to go in for one tomorrow. I didn't schedule it bc I'm scared of disappointment! I was hoping to get a bfp before I schedule it (wishful thinking).
I would normally wait until I get AF but since I am on the crinone I heard it could delay it.

I have also had some slight aching in my legs.

I don't know what to do

I heard the internet cheapies are very sensitive?

I can totally see not wanting to schedule the beta and just waiting to get a bfp first! As for the Crinone, I used that two cycles and DID get my period while I was using it. Actually, I scheduled a beta for 13dpo and got my period on that that day. The other cycle I used it I got a BFP.

I'm not sure about the sensitivity of internet cheapies but I know that def early on regardless of the test it's best to use FMU or at least test after you have not used the bathroom or drank anything for a long time!!

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!

Re: Update I think I'm out

If you want to test at home use FMU like PennyCat said. I totally get not wanting to be dissapointed. I was on Crinone for several months and I never got my period on it. Once I stopped I got AF a few days later. Good luck!

bump for update

Re: Update I think I'm out-UPDATED TODAY

in the future you really should go for the beta and NEVER stop progesterone on your own.
i have a friend on another message board who did IVF, tested negative, stopped progesterone, went for the beta anyway and got a positive result but EXTREMELY low progesterone and was very close to miscarrying. she ended up being OK so far but seriously you just never know so you should never stop progesterone without going for the beta just in case!!!

anyway for me it took a good 3-5 days after stopping progesterone to get AF.

I know I shouldn't but I just couldn't deal with going back to the the RE for a beta and a neg result and I know if I called they would tell me to come in. I know I shouldn't though.
Thank you
