Infertility
Beta #1 is in....
I am KU! Beta was 756. They don't measure progesterone because everyone is already on supplements. I go back Friday for my second beta.
I did cheat and have known for a week, with the tests getting darker and darker, but I wanted to make sure my number was good. My nurse was so ecstatic over my number.
If you ladies don't mind I am going to hang around at least until Friday. I cannot begin to thank you ladies enough for everything you have done and all your help, support and guidance along the way!
