Thumbs up Bfp

I had my beta today and I just got a call from my RN with a . I was trying for 2 years now and this was my 6th iui. I always used to wonder as to why I don't see many bfp in the IUI forum. I was almost discouraged that maybe iui does not work. I was so excited when the nurse called me that I did not even ask her about my levels or about my next visit. I just started to cry. As a matter of fact, I had done my HPT on dpo 12 and got a -ve. So don't get discouraged...it will work. I will pray and pray for all of us.

Graci,
What fabulous news! There is hope out there for us yet! We stopped after just 3, maybe we should have done more? There is always so much running through my mind but it's great to continue to have success stories out there to give us all hope!
I wish you all the luck in the world. May you have a healthy and happy pregnancy, not to mention a beautiful baby!

I'm curious, were all 6 under injectibles or did you start with Clomid or no drugs? Sorry if I'm being too nosy!! I feel like a scientist, like I'm trying to figure out what worked and what didn't for everyone!!

Congratulations, graci!!

Thank you so much everyone for your kind posts. I am so happy not just for myself but that I could get some hope for all of you. I certainly know how it feels waiting. When I took the hpt on Saturday, and it was negative...I had no hopes...but I prayed and prayed for a miracle. So pleeeaaaaaaaaaase don't lose hope and pray.
Today is DPO 15 for me. My RN called me and said that my hcg level was 170. I wasn't too sure what the number meant but she said that it is very good number for this stage. I have to go for another test on Saturday. I just have .
~A~ - I had 3 cycles of iui on clomid and 3 on injectibles.
