Pregnant after IF

Can't Believe I'm Here!

Hi Ladies!

I'm so excited to finally be able to post here (instead of major league lurking!)

I am 7 weeks today with our first, as a result of our first FET in December. Took an hpt on 12/30 and got a positive, followed by our first beta on 12/31 (it was a pretty momentous New Year's for us this year!)

We had our first ultrasound on 1/9 and it showed twins, but with one twin over a week behind. We were told to prepare for it to go either way.  Our second u/s yesterday showed Baby B didn't make it.  Even though we knew to prepare for it, it was still a sad moment.  We're choosing to focus on our healthy baby still snuggled up inside.  We saw the heartbeat (133 bpm) and that made it a lot more realistic....well, realistic enough to finally make my way to PAIF!

I'm looking forward to being part of such a supportive community and learning from you all!

Dec '13: First FET 12/20 BFP!!
12/31 Beta #1: 404 Beta #2: 1,027    
Baby due 9/9/14
