when do you start counting?
also why do you have to go for a beta? Can you test before? after pennycat's BFP I don't think ill make it till next wed!

Re: IUI and DPO ??
I seriously didn't think I'd make it either at times!!
Here's how I counted.... I was actually on the EXACT same schedule as you so this should be an easy one! I triggered on a Monday night, had an IUI Tuesday and Wednesday and then started counting dpo on Thursday. I assumed that Wednesday was the day I O'ed. I was always a little confused by that.. but they say you O like 36 hours after trigger... so .. that's how I counted it.
Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ETA: You go for your beta twice, once to confirm pregnancy and again to make sure the numbers are going up at a good rate.
For my 3 IUI cycles.........my first time I went for the beta even though I had no BFPs from POAS....... Dr.B said it's still possible- that clearly resulted in AF. The second time, I didn't even make it to the beta because I got AF right before my appointment Then this time I will be going for a beta tomorrow (originally it was scheduled for Tuesday but going earlier since I got the BFP) ..... and then I'll go back again to make sure the numbers are going up!
Again, good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: IUI and DPO ??
They told me at Dr B's office that the beta is done 14 days past the first day of the IUI. I did my IUIs the exactly same days as you did, on May 4th and May 5th, and they told me to go back on on the 18th for my beta. I can see myself testing around day 12 if I can holf off until then, unless I get AF before that.... But I know what you mean about Pennycat! She got us all super-excited

Re: IUI and DPO ??
im also testing next week (assuming AF doesnt get here first), prob Sunday. i'll be 13DPO on Sunday and I have a beta on Tuesday the 18th...dr. b told me to schedule it for monday the 17th (did my trigger on saturday 5/1) but tuesday the 18th is WAY more convenient for me so that's when it is.
i didnt do IUI - did ovulation induction with timed intercourse - but i O'ed about Monday 5/3 so I'm on the same schedule as you guys - about 6DPO today...
the first week wasnt too bad but i think this upcoming week will be harder!!

I know exactly what you mean! Every morning, especially after the first 4 days past the IUI, I count - and that is what I do before I even get out of bed in the morning. And then throughout the rest of the day I count again at least twice to make sure that I haven't made any mistake Talk about having an obssesive disorder

Re: IUI and DPO ??
I am on the same cycle. B2B IUI's on Tuesday and Wednesday. I am not going to test before my beta though. I go in also on the 18th. I have no PG tests at home and i am too lazy to make a trip to target just to buy one (so much cheaper than CVS or the supermarket). I have to say though, although i am dying to know either way, DH is worse than me. He is the one counting down the days til the 18th. This morning, i was getting ready for work and he says "hey babe, only 8 more days until your blood test". lol he's the one with OCD when it comes to this.
ETA: for you all!
