Pregnant after 35

Hi I'm 37, DH is 47. We used IVF to conceive because he had a vasectomy in his previous marriage. I am now 17dp3dt. I had my first beta done 14dp3dt and my hcg was 811 and progesterone was over 40. Doc says it all looks good and I go back in in 2 days for another blood test and an ultrasound to check yolk sac placement. I've had some pregnancy like symptoms, but mostly due to the meds I was taking for the IVF, although yesterday I worked a 12-hr shift (I'm a nurse) and felt like total crap! Today, I'm off work, got a bunch of sleep and feel fantastic!
Anyone else doing IVF? I'm still scared stiff that something will go wrong, although I'm sure that most women feel that way no matter how they conceive.
