Success after IF

Cautiously moving from Infertility to SAIF...

Hi All, I'm offically pregnant. It's weird, I've never been before...I don't have any idea how I should be feeling or not feeling...I still don't "feel Pregant"! 

I know, I know....who does at 4.5 weeks? I'm a compulsive POAS and symptom spotter so I'm just one of those people that needs reasurrance that my body is doing something!!

 We did our first and second Beta this week  (#1-67  #2- 174) And now it's crickets until our first ultrasound which is scheduled for 6/6/14.  THIS WILL TAKE FOREVER.. lol I just got done with one 2ww, now I'm in another. I'll probably be peeing on a few sticks throughout this wait just for my own peace of mind.. Am I the only one who continues to POAS even after confirmed Beta?!  Anyway, thank you ladies for having me. Looking forward to reading your posts and best of luck to all!  <3

    Hi ys, I was looking for that board originally but couldnt see it! So I defaulted to here thinking maybe they got rid of it and kind of wrapped it all into SAIF.

    The PAIF doesn't appear on my "community" page either. I have to go to "The Bump Message Boards" at the top of this screen, which takes me to the full listing. No idea why.
    DH and I are Americans living an adventure in Kenya since 2011
    DX: PCOS (annovulatory)
    Feb 2012: IUI #1 w/ only 1M sperm and a single follie = BFP! 
    Nov 2012: Little buddy born in Kenya
    Nov 2013: Trying for a second, still w PCOS
    Dec 2013: IUI cycle canceled for non-response
    Jan 2014: Break cycle BFP!
