AH - BFP

Hey everyone - I posted this in TTGP and 3T (and even intro'd on my new BMB!)

I am pregnant :) For now.  I hope I remain this way for 9 months.  One is always fretful after a long, difficult road.

I got my first positive in the afternoon 9 DP IUI but it was so faint I thought my eyes were playing tricks one me.  Used a Wondfo in the morning of 10 DP IUI and there was a definite faint line.  Used a FRER later in the afternoon and it's a solid positive.

Had my beta yesterday (11 DP IUI) - 20.  I go in for a second draw on Monday.  Wish me luck, please!  Looking forward to joining the pregnancy check-in :)

    Hey, awesome!  Congratulations!  I'm 12 DP IUI today.  I jumped the gun for my blood test!!  Nurse is making me wait until 16 DPO, which is understandable.  Not gonna stop me from peeing on sticks, though ;)
