Decided to test last night..11dp3dt and couldn't believe that 2 lines popped up. I seriously thought this transfer did not work again. I'm walking around in a daze not believing this. Beta tomorrow. I don't even know how to process this! Guess it will feel more real when I get a beta number. I'm pg for now 
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.
