Ok... So, I go here now... Holy spirit batman. So, here's my background for those who don't know me... We've been married for 11 years, been TTC for 5.5. I've had 4 prior losses in the last year and a half. There has been nothing in our testing to tell us what could be going on... Just unexplained issues. After the last loss in early November we decided we were going to go through IVF. I've been getting all my pre-reqs done and were supposed to start BC as soon as AF came... Well, I got a BFP on Wednesday night. I wanted to wait until I could get in to the doc for a beta before I intro'd as I was afraid it might end in a CP like the last 3. Of course I've taken tests since and they've been coming back positive... I got my beta drawn yesterday and while the doc put a stat request in things got messy at the office and they messed it up somehow and he finally just called with the results. Beta #1 = 158.5. Progesterone = 24.3. I will go back on Monday to get tested. My TSH increased a bit so they are giving me a higher dose of synthroid.
I'm so super excited and so freaked out all at the same time. I so hope that this is our rainbow... It seems at this point that our due date would be the day of or day before the date of our first loss. Oh, and to add to it - I started a new job on Monday... LOL. Trying not to stress.
Please hold me tight!
To my TTCAL / CAL ladies... words cannot even begin to describe what you all mean to me. I have made friendships and you all have stuck with me through the worst of times. You make my days better and make my feelings seem normal. I am forever changed because I have had the pleasure of knowing you. I will continue to lurk and love *whatever the phrase of the day is* the heck out of you guys.
Squeeeee!!!!! Omg lady! I'm so over the moon happy for you. I can't even begin to tell you. Now you find a comfy seat and stay here love! You can beat I will be stalking you.
