What a bittersweet moment ... I'm 11.5 weeks and had my last scan with the RE today. Baby continues to do well with a heart rate of 176 and measuring just 2 days behind.
I'm 12 weeks on Sunday and it still seems so surreal ... there's actually a baby in there growing!! S/He is doing amazing and considering our rocky start, it's just a miracle. We feel truly blessed.
Now let's just hope the rest of this pregnancy goes smoothly!!! I see the peri for my NT scan on Tuesday followed by my first OB visit (yes at 12 weeks hehe). I already did a 1 hour glucose screen and passed so everything so far looks good! 
Thank you ladies for all the support, care and love ... I never could have gotten through those first few weeks without all of your support, words of encouragement and prayers.

I don't believe that God ever tells us "no". he has three options. Yes, not right now, or I have something better in mind. We just have to wait & see.
