Pregnant after IF
Update on BFP
Hi ladies. I'm still very new here, just started posting yesterday. Looking forward to getting to know you all. After almost 2 years of IF, we had our first IUI on Sept 12th. I got my BFP yesterday with a HPT. I had my first blood work today and it came back positive! I'm not too sure what the number means, but I'm guessing it's the HCG levels. It came back at 241. I'm not exactly sure how far along we are, but can't be no more than 4 weeks at the most. Second beta will be this Saturday. Praying that it comes back at whats expected at this stage. After a MC in the past, it's so nerve recking. I'm trying not to worry so much, but it's really hard not too. Thanks for listening.
