cannot even contain my excitement (but trying to)... *pg mentioned)*

Today I am 10dpiui of our 2nd IUI cycle. I started POAS yesterday morning...BFN so I know my trigger was long gone. This morning, I tested again at home, and got a BFP!!!!! I don't even know what to do with myself! I had to read the word "pregnant" over and over before it sank in. First beta is scheduled for Friday. Trying not to get too overjoyed until we A. start off with a decent beta (I'm assuming we will since my home tests are already positive?!) and B. (most importantly) we get passed the 1st trimester window (I've had 2 m/c at 9 and 6 weeks prior to IF workup and treatment). Thank you all for being so supportive on this site! You ladies have kept me from going off the deep end time and time again. Although I hope to be leaving the infertility portion of this site, I will continue lurking around and praying the rest of you ladies on if I finally am on my way to my take home baby! Thank you all again and here's to big beta's for me and baby dust to all the February cyclers, as well as all my fellow ladies who got dealt the sh*tty hand we've been dealt! 
Me (26) DH (27) ....Married 9/10/11....TTC since 1/2012........ BFP #1 March 2012...M/C #1 April 2012 with D&C( Our Angel Baby Boy) at 8.5 weeks....BFP #2 October 2012.....Natural M/C #2 October 2012 at 5w5d.....*RE and Workup shows only mild MFI*.....First IUI cycle started 12/14/12 Gonal-F, Ovidrel, Crinone....BFN.....IUI cycle #2 started 1/9/2013..... BFP with great betas and HB.....loss of HB found at 7w apt. M/C #3 at 6w5d, D and C karyotyping showed Trisomy 4, rare and one time chromosomal error and our 2nd angel baby boy. IUI #3 5/9/2013...
