Pregnant after 35

Second Beta is in, so here we go!

Hello everyone! I am an active member of TTC>35 and the Infertility board and I have recently received my BFP! I am 36, DH is 34 and we have been TTC# 1 since Feb 2013, then began seeing an RE in Feb 2014. We have done many TI cycles, medicated cycles, 2 IUIs and 3 IVFs with one CP (in Nov 2014) before finally getting our first BFP on 1/18/15 (3rd IVF with a 2 embryo transfer).

My first BETA was 720 10dp5dt
Second BETA was 2284 12dp5dt



Other info about me, we have 2 cat fur babies that are spoiled. I'm from New England (Go Pats!) and DH is from Iowa :) Hope to be a part of this board as I see many familiar names!

  • @KateLouise‌ yeah the nurse said most likely they both stuck! It's not confirmed yet for another few weeks. We are really happy that it would be great numbers for 2. There's a chance that one may have split and there's 3 in there. That makes me scared! DH says that we just have 2 over achievers ;;)

    Thank you everyone for the warm welcome!

  • Awesome numbers, @CML11! Welcome!
  • @cneiding‌ yes it's been a very long journey! It's funny to think back on when I came off BCP to think I would get KU right away. Looking back I laugh at the mindset I had back then! Due to my bump friends and my own trials I think I should have an honorary degree in infertility. Now I finally get to educate myself on the pregnancy stuff! I am over the moon excited to start this process!!!
