This isn't meant to be snarky or anything, but I think your post is better suited for the "Pregnant after IF" board. This is your first post on the IF board, and otherwise you've been posting on 1st Tri. No offense, but we don't know you here and you're already 5 weeks pregnant. Congrats on your success!
TTC since July 2011 BFP #1: 2/15/12-Ectopic/Mtx at 6 wks
BFP #2: 10/12/12-m/c at 5 wks.

5 rounds of clomid, 3 IUIs, and multiple non-medicated cycles- BFFN IVF with ICSI in August 2013 brought us our babies. ER-9R, 7M, 4F w/ICSI ET of 2-Grade 2 blasts.
+ HPT at 6dp5dt. #1 (8dp5dt)- 105 #2 (13dp5dt)- 510 #3 (15dp5dt)- 960 #4 (17dp5dt)- 1889 Dx shortened cervix, PTL, and preeclampsia during pregnancy. Lots of medications and 13 weeks of bedrest, babies were born healthy at 34w4d!
Very happy for you but I agree that PAIF will have more insight for you since most of us here have never been pregnant. Congrats and good luck for a happy and uneventful nine months
TTC 2 years- Me and DH (28) with (severely) low sperm count- less than 40 total (last 2 SA showed only 5 and 6 sperm each) IVF #1: ER 1/23/13- 4 eggs retrieved,
3 eggs fertilized; ET with 1 embryo 1/28/13
2 frosties
beta #1 2/5 was 4.8- beta #2 2/7 3.5; BFN
FET #1- transferred one beautiful 4AA embie. Praying this is my take home baby. Beta 5/7/13- BFFN!!!
IVF #2: ER 7/17/13: 6R/3F- transferred 1 blast and 1 10 cell embryo 5dt. Beta hell. #1 2.5, #2 2.2- BFFFN! REALLY? IVF #3: ER 12/1 and only 2 retrieved. 1 fertilized with ICSI. Was planning on transferring one fresh and one frozen....fresh was only 14 cells at day 5...CANCELLED and devastated due to 5cm blood filled cyst in ovary and blood in uterus. IVF #4: Antagonist protocol with endometrial scratch day one of stims. ER 4/21: 6R/4M/3F- transferred 2 beautiful blasts (5dt) and one was hatching! No frosties but hoping we won't need it! Beta 5/4/14- 444(8dp5dt), Beta #2 10dp5dt 1002! THIS HAS GOT TO BE IT!!!!!!!!!! First US 5/15 we saw two of the most beautiful gestational and yolk sacs I have ever seen! ****FINALLY PREGNANT WITH DI/DI TWINS!!!!!!!
BRINLEY AND RILEY LONG. Born November 20, 2014 at 32 wks 3 days. 4lbs7oz and 4lbs5oz. 1 month NICU time for "B's" and growing and feeding. Now healthy, thriving, beautiful little girls! pg
We understand that your intentions were good. It's just that we have a tight-knit group here and it can hurt to see a first-time poster on IF share a BFP (even good intent can create negative impact, you know?). Unfortunately we also get some cruel drive-by posters over here from time to time who post drive-by, one-time BFPs here and those suck, too. I really believe you that your journey has been long and hard, and I'm so thrilled to hear of another IVFer having success. I hope we will all get to join you over on PAIF once we get our BFPs, too! Congratulations!

Trust me if I could delete this post I would, I am new to this post & didn't mean in anyway to be hurtful. I have experienced it all too, and was just posting I'm sorry that it was in the wrong board. Would never wish anyone anything but the best.
