TTFN & thank you!

I feel like a Turkey-Bunny and will be hanging out to see how the rest of you fair, if you don't mind? We had a less than stellar beta #2 on Sunday (70.19 doubling time, but who's counting?), but my 3rd beta picked up speed today and we are back on track after a little stopover in crazy town these past 2 and 1/2 days.

I've been on this board since March when IVF became inevitable after 5 failed IUIs. The support on this board is wonderful and my heart and prayers go out to each one of you ladies to eventually find your happily ever after.  I hope to see you all on the PAIF board...FUIF. <3

 P.S. In addition to betabase.com, here's a website I liked obsessing over should you find yourself on the unlucky side of betas that are not perfectly doubling:
