Cautiously Introducing Myself

Hey ladies!  I can't believe I'm actually posting over here... maybe one day this will all feel real.

I'm coming over from 3T and I got my first ever BFP just about 2 weeks ago.  DH and I struggled with IF for about a year and a half (all my info is in my siggy).  We were on a break for a couple of months and just getting ready to do our 3rd IUI this month when we got the best surprise ever!  My 1st u/s was last night and we saw the gestational and yolk sacs, along with the very beginning of the fetal pole.  My RE thinks I'm around 5 weeks, but I'll be getting another u/s next week where he'll hopefully be able to confirm better.

I'm looking forward to sticking around and getting to know all of you!
