TTC after 35

So, I think I have some good news to share.

Despite the drama surrounding this BFP, the crazy numbers, the low progesterone, and yesterday's bleeding...

We went for our 2nd u/s and saw a little bean that is measuring exactly right and we were able to see/hear a healthy h/b.

I am still scared to death....

Thanks so much for all of your well-wishes ladies!
