Pregnant after IF

Cautious Intro
bears1011
member
I'm cautiously introducing myself...I am a September Sweet Pea over on the IF board and it's nice to see a bunch of names I recognize! I had my first beta on 10/3 and it was 232. My second beta today on 10/6 was 1324. My third beta and first ultrasound is scheduled for this Thursday (5 weeks exactly). I'm in shock and can't believe that maybe this is finally happening!
My backstory: DH and I have been TTC for over 4 years. We tried a couple different REs and many IUIs and took some breaks between medicated cycles because we just weren't ready to try IVF. This was my first fresh cycle IVF and we transferred one embryo at 3 days. I feel like it's just too good to be true, but then I remind myself that it has taken 4 years and maybe it's just finally our time. I've never gotten a positive beta ever, so getting this far has been surreal. I'm trying to stay calm and not worry about every little thing, but it's so hard! I know you ladies completely understand!
Anyway, I hope you'll accept me and I look forward to getting to know you ladies during this exciting/nerve wracking time!
