IUI & Clomid-advice...comfort?

Na

Hi ladies.  I'm driving myself 100% crazy so, I'm posting this in hopes someone has had a similar experience? This month my husband and I did our first round of clomid & IUI after ttc naturally for 2.5 years.  2 days ago, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw my first faint line EVER!! I continued to test like an insane person- still getting faint positives. Fast forward to my first blood test. HCG 15. Rutt-Roh. I take my second blood test tomorrow. My hpts aren't getting darker. Rather, staying the same. Scared out of my mind it will be a chemical. Trying not to get excited but also, I'm actually pregnant for the time being! 
I'm preparing for every worst case scenario. "Normal" people don't do that when they get a positive test! Sigh. Anyone relate?

I didn't have a trigger. Just the 50 mg clomid and IUI. My blood test was 13dpiui. My second blood test is tomorrow 15dpiui.

It's ok for it to be that low at 13dpiui! Have the test gotten any darker? This can still be all good wine it takes 48hrs for hcg to double. Relax and I'm rooting for you!

How long ago was your trigger shot? In how many days past IUI was your blood test? It all depends. At 14dpiui my hcg was only 64, on 16dpiui it was 187
