@Marley629. I saw 80+ posts and was like what is this, <i>two</i> bfps??? Lol. I am slow.
Woman. I am so. Incredibly grateful that our paths have crossed. ❤ you still owe me lunch! ;) I just can't even. There are a small handul of ladies that I literally couldnt possibly be happier for them to post here... YOU are one of them, (and I suspect another may be lurking who deserves to post here too...) I am legit crying happy tears for you this morning. I feel so blessed to know you, and get to share in your joy! Your BFP gives me so much courage, and has renewed my faith in miracles. So thanks for sharing your good news again with us all here. :) I think we need to hear it sometimes, and you deserve to shout it from the rooftops!
@Marley629 I don't think we crossed paths but congratulations to you! Enjoy the next phase of this journey and have the happiest and healtiest 9 months.

@marley629 I'm so glad u posted here!!!! Such a huge congratulations!!!! I'm so happy for you, and like @businesswife said, im so incredibly happy that our paths crossed!!!
Your story has such a special place in my heart because (as you know) it's exactly what happened with me too- (getting a natural BFP while waiting to do an IVF transfer). It's such a crazy thing to struggle for so long and then have it happen naturally against ALL odds!!!
praying for a super happy and uneventful 9 months for you!!
@Marley629 not sure if we've "met" but i couldn't be more excited for you. I think this type of outcome gives lots of hope to this board. Congratulations!! Here's to a very healthy and happy 9 months. Enjoy it!
@Marley629 OMG!!! How amazing! As someone who has a less than stellar chance and decided against IVF because of it, I especially am excited for you. I'm so glad you decided to post. As we were all saying in the IF thread, we participate in TTGP even if not in the dailies. Thanks so much for sharing and giving those of us who are struggling with this some hope. Big hug and congrats for HH9!!!

@Marley629 I am late to the party but I wanted to say thank you so much for posting here. I am so happy for you and your story means so much to me since I'm also dealing with severe MFI and low AMH. Thank you so much for the hope and inspiration. Wishing you a H&H 9 months.
@Marley629 As all of the others have said, I'm so glad you decided to post here!! You absolutely deserve it!! I wonder if the medications to pump your ovaries up had anything to do with this cycle being a success! /shrug I am so so happy for the detour in your plans though! Congrats congrats congrats, friend!! And.. @BusinessWife I can think of at least 2.. I'm thinking 3 if she ever participated here.. but yea. There are some out there who also deserve to post with their IVF success/TTCAL success!
