May I visit this board?

Hello...
I am usually on TTC35...but since I am well into my second try on my DE cycle. I thought that it would be good for me to check out this board too.
I did a fresh DE cycle in November 2012. That didn't work.
On Friday, two DE frosties were popped in...I am now waiting to see about them. I'm all pumped on hormones, but feel pretty good this time!
I'm 44 and my DH is 45. We are getting tired of trying. This is our seventh try with assistance between IUI, my own egg IVF and now the eggs of a dynamic 20 something. ..
I usually lurk around a lot on the boards, but seeing this site helps me cope with the uncertainty of how I feel about DE and whatever eventual outcome we have.
Thank you.

    Hi Heather!! I'm so glad your feeling optimistic this time around. Wishing you all the best! Happywife I think her beta is March 11th!!

    ME:46 MH:44 DE IVF 2014
    Met with RE 4/11. 2 IUI's BFN. DE best option. Switched clinics to do "shared" program. Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months. Picked a donor!! (10/13/13) Got matched. Estimated transfer in December. After 2.5 years of patiently waiting I will finally cycle....can hardly believe it. DE cycle got cancelled. One of her tests came back positive.  Waiting for another donor. Donor picked!! (1/18/14)

    DE IVF #1 (4/26) BFN  DE FET #1 (6/4) BFP! Beta 1=339 Beta 2=852 Beta 3=9957 EDD 2/22/15!!

    Hi!! Thank you for the welcoming!!
    Yes...my beta is 3/11.
    I feel upbeat and strong right now.
    Oddly, my favorite Yankee Candle scent made me feel nauseous tonight. I had to blow it out. That has never happened, my friend said smells made her feel sick when she was pg...
