Infertility

Beta #1 :-)

Three +HPT's this morning (an IC, a FRER and a digi - yes, I'm slightly obsessive) and a first beta number of 477 confirm that as of right now I am KU!  It seems as though DH's super sperm combined with our donor's rock star eggs have done the trick and brought me my BFP.  I'm still taking deep breaths and shaking - I still can't believe it's real!

Thank you, ladies for all your support in navigating this crazy process!  With Easter weekend, Beta #2 isn't until Monday so I will be cautiously optimistic and hanging around until then.
