Hi girls! I am coming over from IF and 3T. I recognize many of you and have posted on here several times for hope. After several failed cycles with clomid, IUIs, and an IVF that ended in a loss. I had success with FET #1. I actually got my bfp on 7/8 and had good betas. But I had an issue of bleeding and then at my first u/s my RE said he "thought" he could see a sac, so I was too scared and nervous to post and jinx myself. Well today I went in for my second ultrasound and I saw the littlest miracle ever....the flutter of a heart beat! I seem to be measuring behind about a week, but my RE isnt concerned. Although I know I am not out of the woods, I am ready to be optimistic and excited for our miracle. So here I am
.
I cant wait to tell my parents and a few close friends. Does anyone have a fun/cute way they told people?
Thanks girls! I am so excited to be here!

**PAIF/SAIF Welcome**
Welcome! We told my parents by putting a copy of our first u/s in a "Sneak Peek" frame I got at Kohl's. When they came to visit, we said we got them something for making the trek to our house.
For my friends and siblings, I just texted a pic of the u/s. The phone calls that came afterward were pretty hilarious. My sister was like...What was that a picture of? Is that a baby? lol.

Congrats & Welcome to the board! Your pup is really cute!
My family lives out of state, so I called and asked my parents if they would be able to come down in October to help us with a house project. They said sure and asked what we were planning on doing. I told them we were going to expand the house by two feet. My mom paused and then said "why on earth would you want to... OH! TWO FEET! TWO FEET! SHE'S PREGNANT!" lol It was really funny and definitely caught them off-guard b/c we hadn't told them we had gone ahead with another treatment cycle.
