HPT

I started my 2ww yesterday (ugh). I was never told that we could take an HPT, but it seems like many of you ladies are. When do you take the HPT? Will there be a false positive or negative? Should I just wait for my beta?

Are you on any meds? If so you should wait at least 14 days. If not at least 12 days. It is a personal decision, but for me, I hate getting that phone call with the BFN news, especially as I am usually at work. I usually do my pregnancy test the morning or so before my beta so I can prepare myself. Good luck!

I was told it can take 10-14 days for trigger shots to get out of your system. I waited with my IVF. I did try to take one the morning of beta, but I the box was empty. I kind of wish I did b/c I got the BFN at work and I was a wreck.
They are not 100% either, even if you did not do trigger shot. But if you want to take one, wait until about day 12.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
