cautiously optimistic **********BFP (mine)**********

Im terrified to post anywhere or even say this out loud... This cycle was our IUI#2, with our first trigger. The SA was 1.2m and about 60% motility. (MH has a Kruger score of 0). My cycles are anywhere from 28-35 days, so yesterday CD28, no AF, I was cautiously optimistic, but not ready to see that BFN. This morning I bit the bullet, and poas, (wondfo) quite quickly a second line appeared. I quickly grabbed the digi i had stock piled (unfortunately it had expired in july...never thought it would take this long). It still quickly showed pregnant. I called the RE office, they agreed to run a HCG, (which im still waiting for) the NP was kinda rude and dismissive when I asked about getting a second beta. She said I had no history that warranted a second beta, apparently neurosis is not reason enough. She was like we would like to get a daily us to make sure everything is ok but thats expensive and unnecessary, she was like insurance wont necessarily cover a second beta. I was like kinda po'd, we have been paying everything oop and would rather have the second beta to make sure things are progressing and that this is a viable pregnancy.
I just wanted to thank you girls for your advice and support. You have all made the shitty situation just a little more bearable with your advice and snark.
GL to all of you!
***Update: First Beta came back as 236, which seems about right for 4 weeks.

PCOS | Anovulatory | Metformin + Letrozole
TTC since Jan 2013 Me=25 DH=26
Me: PCOS; I do not ovulate on my own...like ever. All other tests came back good.
Hubby: SA came back in the normal range.
Medicated Cycle #1: Letrozole 5mgs days 3-7, trigger when eggs are ready: total bust...u/s 12/23-lots of little follies. u/s 12/26 follies grew 1mm 1 in each ovary. u/s 12/28 no growth. OPKs for hopeful ovulation, if not progesterone on CD35 to induce next cycle w/5mg letrozole CD 3-7, add follistim CD 8. UPDATE: Positive OPK 1/1 and 1/2, very unexpected and unlikely that I'd ovulate this cycle!
Fuck yeah!!!!! Party over in your ute!!
Congrats!
I have my second beta tomorrow but no idea what the first number was. Did you have to ask for the numbers?
Congrats!! So exciting!!
