Beta is in. *Update!*

edited April 2015 in Secondary IF
275. Respectable but not fabulous for 17 dpo, as far as I can tell. Repeat beta is Monday. The waaaaiiiting is the hardest part....
----------
Today's beta was 843.  I guess that means it's time to get out of here, at least for now. :)

You guys have been a great source of information and encouragement, and I truly wish the very best for each of you.  I plan to keep lurking, and hope to see lots of good news from you all.  Good luck!
