7 and 8 DPO

[tiamiami]

Hi all..... Well I as inseminated on May 14 and May 15. I did a trigger shot on May 13 and What I want to know how long does this HCG stay in your system. Last month my breast hurt for 2 or 3 days after and nothing more until 2 day before AF. My breast are sore, heavvy and today I noticed around my nipple area the color is getting dark as well as a back ache. Any thoughts?????

Hi Tiamiami!

I'm not sure about the whole insemination thing, but I just wanted to say that having sore, heavy boobs is a very good symptom!

That was the very first thing that tipped me off to the fact that I might be pregnant. My bb's grew at a rate of knots from about 7DPO and are still growing! Even though I got a BFN at 10DPO, I knew I might still be in with a shot because of my bb's. And sure enough, I got a BFP at 14DPO!

I'm not sure about the back ache but darkening/enlargement of the nipple area is another pregnancy symptom!

Regarding hCG levels, they will double every two to three days if you're pregnant. I got a reading of 290 at 15DPO and they were up to 2790 six days later. So they were doubling every 1.8 days which is excellent!

I hope to be hearing a BFP from you very soon! I'm keeping everything that this is your month!!!

Love

Tiamiami -It depends on the trigger strength

5000iu (IVF dose I had) is said to stay in system 7 to 10 days - 500iu they still say up to a week ... to be on the safe side

Your symptoms sound great Goodluck - either way if you last HCG inj (trigger) was on 13th - it is 10 days today - I am taking a punt you have either tested or want to ... use first morning urine if you do for best results.

I wish you the best of everything - but remember though if it is a BFN the HCG level might not be sufficient to register on HPT ... most IVF clinics only test on 14dpo - where they like to see levels about 100.

I know several ladies who got BFN on poas (HPT) the same day they got positive BFP on bloodtest ... they are now holding their babies in their arms.

Hi all.... Well three days ago I purchased EPT home pregnancy test. I did my first test that day andn it was BFN. Then, I tested a few minutes ago 6:31 pm US Est Std time and got a . The second line was not as bright as the first but it surely was there... I am esstatic. The Hcg shot must of been out of my system a while ago because the first HPT I did was Negative!!! L me know whtat you ladies think????

Love ya,
Tiamiami
