thanks so much ladies. And believe me, I feel your pain with the waiting. I actually wanted to give up, but my husband made me keep going to the doctors because of our age (me 38, him 46) and he just really wants at least 2 kids. I was so depressed I just wanted it to go away so I was very reluctant to say the least. I didn't take any supps or do any hocus pocus because i was so afraid of a BFN. But in the end, DH was right, again. That's why I married him. He's very persistent and optimistic, unlike me.
With the first, we tried for 11 cycles and conceived on the cycle after a medicated overstim cycle. I ovulate late, so I need the drugs to give me the boost, but the drugs affect my brain and it's very very hard for me.
Tests are darker today and waiting for my beta. Looks good so far. I will let you know as things progress. ETA just got my beta: 98.3 for 11dpo!!!! Woo Hoo, that is good good good!
eta: here's my 12dpo test.

Awe Rae, don't make me cry.
I'm going to have an amnio so should know gender by 12 weeks. I didn't sway though so it doesn't matter. I would guess girl because of my acidity.
