I'm mad at myself

Because I swore I wouldn't do a HpT until the day of my beta (which is this Friday). I am 10dp my first of two BTB IUIs which was the day after i had my trigger shot and figured it would be the ultimate Father's Day gift to DH if it'd come up positive. I know it's early but I'm disappointed naturally. I should have had more will power.

On a side note, I've been having a ton of cramping the past few days (even as a type now). I am on progesterone suppositories and did use Clomid. Do you all think this is a good sign or can I also chalk it up to the meds?

Re: I'm mad at myself

In a medicated cycle (or ANY cycle, really) you can never rely on symptoms as reliable signs.

I'm sorry you were disappointed tonight. I've been there .. .we've all been there .. and as much as you try to have the willpower to hold off testing, it's SO hard. Don't be mad at yourself. When you want something this bad, the idea of being able to celebrate the good news far surpasses the idea of holding out testing. It's very possible you tested too soon!

Hi. Don't be mad at yourself a lot of people test early. Its still early so wait a few days and test again. I'm also 10 DP IUI (#4). My Beta is Thursday so I'll test Wednesday at 13 dpiui just so I know what to expect. Some cramping could be a good sign but could also be the meds. I've had minor cramping as well and am on Progesterone as well. This is my 4th time on Progesterone and my main symptom is bloating. The bloating is seriously ridiculous. Good luck!

Thanks girls for the support. I hate that I have symptoms which gets my hopes up and then I have to remind myself it could be the meds doing it. I know I'm not out yet and still have hope. I am committing myself to not test until Friday....this is my last week of work so I at least have something to distract myself with. I'm in big trouble once the summer vacation starts and all I've got is free time! Lol
