I appear to have gotten pregnant. Without IVF. At age 42.8.
I went in for bloodwork to check on where my period was to start my IVF cycle, and so imagine my surprise when my RE called me to tell me that I hadn't gotten a period because my beta was 173 at what I believe is 16 dpo. Or thereabouts. Because I wasn't really paying attention this month as we had been taking a bit of a break.
Anyway. I'm surprised as all get out. And anxious. Because, you know, this is only the very very beginning of the road and I have been here before.
Because I really thought they had mixed my results up with someone else, I went and bought the fanciest, most expensive pregnancy tests I could find. It says I'm pregnant, too. I'm including a photo for you to see.
It's ridiculous. Truly ridiculous.
