IUI & Early Pregnancy Symptoms: What to Expect

Question
age 30, 1 child, 1/9/05

I have been trying to conceive for a year. I wasn't ovulating in the past, but I finally ovulated with Clomid & had IUI done on 1/21/05 and 1/22/05. Hubby's' sperm analysis was 27.9 after being washed. I started progesterone suppositories on 1/22/05. I have been nauseous, vomiting, and I have cramps everyday. It seems way too early to experience pregnancy symptoms (if IUI worked). But they assure me progesterone suppositories don't cause these symptoms. I take a pregnancy test this Friday, but I am anxious and can't figure out why I'm sick everyday. Your opinion would be appreciated. Thanks.

Answer
If you had an IUI on Janaury 21 and 22, the earliest that a pregnancy test would show a positive result would be 14-21 days later, or between February 3-10. The best time to take a pregnancy test is February 10 (if you do not get your period by then).The earliest symptoms of pregnancy are nausea, fatigue, and breast tenderness.  Just take a pregnancy test on February 10 and you will know for sure.
