Completely Unexpected! (BFP Warning) UPDATED w/ Beta

Teenie16Teenie16 member
edited March 2015 in TTC after 35
Well AF was due on Saturday but since I usually wake up with it I went to the 99 cent store and picked up 2 hpt just for shits and giggles. Lets just say that I was slack jaw surprised when there were 2 dark lines... not even a squinter. My BF insisted on going to the drug store for "an expensive test" before it was real. I took those too and both were +.
We resigned ourselves to starting IVF once AF showed up, we even paid our deposit! 
After the 2 failed IUI's and a year of trying on our own this is not how I thought we'd get here!
I am so beside myself with excitement and joy! My BF still won't believe it till we get the beta results!

I'm not ready to leave this board yet! I'd love to stick around and lurk. Please?
You women have been so wonderful and supportive through my journey.Thank you all so very much for your insights and compassion.
I hope all of you get your BFP soon so we can all be grads together!

    Thank you ladies!!! You are all so amazing!!@Hooligans4 I hope this streak keeps going too!!! I'm going in for my beta tomorrow. Work is too crazy today to get away. 
    @sonpetitlapin YES! Absolutely! I did the TWW check in for a couple weeks and look what happens. I'm going to wait till after my beta comes back before I pass it on to someone else......just in case...
    @URMySunshine77 Thanks for asking. I feel fine. I had/have no symptoms other than sore breasts which has been common since I started seeing the RE and has gotten more intense since my first IUI.  But nothing else so far... which makes me cautious that it could be a CP.... (But since I've never had a BFP in my life I'm nervous that that is the reason that I don't have any other symptoms)

    This is so awesome! I'm so glad I popped by from the other place!
    So, does this mean you conceived naturally?  No meds or IUI this time? 

    I'm so happy for you and can't wait to see updates!

    Had my Beta today and it was 2115. I'm not really exactly sure what that means other than the nurse saying "You're really pregnant" HAHA

    Will you be going for another beta to make sure they double?
