Hi there! I finally got my BFP yesterday after 6 months of trying.
There's no way I can read all the way through this thread, so hopefully no one minds if I just pick up from here.
My name is Brandi and I am 29 years old. I've been married for 9 years and have an 8yo son and a 4yo daughter. We had a loss (blighted ovum) in March of '13. It took us quite some time to regain enough confidence to try again. Finally, in February, we decided it was now or never. After 6 cycles here we are. I'm absolutely terrified of something going wrong, but as my husband tells me, stress won't get me anywhere. Be prayerful, be hopeful, be thankful. So that's what I'm trying to do.
I'm putting a call in to my doctor bright and early tomorrow AM and I know he will get in me in that day for a blood draw. He's been so incredibly supportive throughout my miscarriage, my struggles with deciding whether or not to try again, and then through our TTC efforts. He told me that he'd get me in the moment I had a positive test to check all of my levels.
My tentative due date is the 24th or 25th, but I'm sticking with the 25th until otherwise.
Sorry this is so long. I've been an emotional mess the past 24 hours. I look forward to getting to know you all.
