Pregnant after 35

Re-intro: I'm back!

Hello again, ladies!

It looks like this time might really be it! I had my 2nd beta this morning (13DPO) and it went from 32 on Friday to 140 today! My OB's nurse (whom I've nicknamed "Crepe Hanger") was mostly positive this time around, so I think I'm off to a good start. I hope I'm here for the next 9 months, but I'll know more in about 4 weeks after the first U/S, of course.

It feels great to be back!

  • Woo-hoooooo! Great news!

    Confession: I kept up with the TTC after 35 board after I stopped posting there (long story involving health issues and I didn't want to stay involved in the board during my difficulties... darn Scandinavian self-reliance and introvert personality). So, needless to say, I am quite happy to see you and the other grads over here on this side of the fence! :)

  • Thanks, Ladies!

    My RN intake appointment is Oct. 2nd and my 8 week(ish) U/S is Oct. 22nd. I am trying to figure out if there will be a 3rd beta or not at some point... but I'm feeling good (despite the nausea, vomiting, fatigue, peeing every 20 minutes!) and can't wait to hear a HB!
