Well, the results are finally in and everything continues to look positive for now. Numbers more than tripled and went from 113 on Sunday morning to 353 today. Excited, but still so nervous and wondering when I'm going to wake up from this dream.
Will have have one more beta and an u/s on 6/3 (one day after my 30th birthday) so hoping for a good present and that we can see baby! ![]()
Thank you all again for your support and encouragement. For now I'll be cautiously moving over to PGAIF, but I will check here often and hope there are a lot more BFP's to come!
