Pregnant after a Loss

If it's ok, I'm going to slink into the back corner (intro)

Hi ladies!  I tested yesterday afternoon and got a very faint 2nd line.  This morning I dipped 2 tests and got those 2nd lines again, still faint.  I will go for betas, but I'm not quite ready to yet.  I've never gotten a +hpt before a bleed, so I think I will hold out until Monday for betas.  If I make it to then without bleeding, I might have a chance with this pregnancy.

For those that don't know me, I joined TTCAL after my first pregnancy ended in the removal of my tube after seeing babies heartbeat in June 2011.  I went on to have another ectopic which was diagnosed and treated with methotrexate in October.  We went to an RE and had an HSG done which showed my tube was open.  We decided to try one last time before moving to IVF.  That ended in a presumed ectopic in February.  We went through IVF in May followed by a transfer of the embryos that were frozen...both were unsuccessful and heartbreaking.

I'm hoping and praying so hard that this one is different.  That this one will finally bring us our rainbow baby.  At this point I'm not getting excited...I'm rather numb.  I hate that this journey has taken away that excitement.  I wish I could be naive again.

So, can I come hang out with you gals?

3 ectopic pregnancies (EDD's 1/30/12-tube removed, 6/2/12-methotrexate and 10/2/12-methotrexate)
IVF and Natural FET resulted in BFN's and a hole in our wallets
Natural BFP #4 on 9/7/12 gave us our miracle on 5/18/13
