I just got the call from my RE and I got a BFP I'm so excited!!!!
My beta was 89 at 10dp3dt. They said they were looking for more than 40 so that's good.

OMG, YIPPPEEEEE! How funny that we just posted our results at almost the exact same time!!! That was so worth having to pay that $68 wasn't it?!! I can't believe they were going to make you wait an entire day - I just couldn't do it, I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight! Congratulations, I"m so happy for you!!!! Did you try to calculate your due date yet? We can maybe hang out over on the "Due in January" boards together! When is beta #2???

It was def. worth paying the $68. I would have gone crazy. I was speechless when the nurse told me and then I started crying and then I started laughing.....so weird. Think it's because I was in such disbelief and trying not to cry at work that all I could do is laugh out loud..I trully had not control over myself. I hope My beta doubles by Saturday. I think I'll pay for the 2nd beta results as well. I don't think I can wait until sunday or Monday for that matter to know my results.

Thank you ladies!!!! I'm so glad I found this message board. I don't know how I would have survived this whole emotional rollercoaster with out being able to talk to other women going through the same thing I'm going through. I know I'm not out of the woods just yet but I'm happy we've come this far and I'm sure the lord will bless us with a healthy pregnancy.

Thank you once again!!!!
