Pregnant after a Loss

Hi ladies!
I'm totally freaking out. Hi old friends, and new friends. For those of you who don't know me, I'm Shandorfml2. I lost my daughter (our first child) Ana, March 2nd 2013 at 37 weeks after a normal pregnancy. There was no reason found for her death. I was also perfectly healthy. Soon after, we were cleared to try again. We have been trying for 17 months now (minus three months of TTA while on the pill to regulate cycles). I have PCOS but metformin has greatly helped.
So, I got a faint positive this morning on a FRER at 11dpo. (I have a shorter LP so this was the day AF was due). But I got a neg on a digi. I was concerned of course, so it has been a very long day. I retested tonight, and positive on FRER and digital! I am indeed KTFU! Wow. I am in shock, and am feeling a wide range of emotions, but mostly anxiety. I'm sure you ladies get it. I am so happy, and terrified to be here. I look forward to getting to know all of you, and going on this journey together.
I also send out HUGE love and thank yous/tit bumps/ass slaps to my TTCAL girls. Without them, I'm not sure I could have remained sane the last 17 months.
