huge congratulations hun, how exciting!!! i would book a DR appt ASAP & ask for a quantitative HCG (it will give you an exact number of what your HCG is), then get the same test done 2 days later to make sure the numbers are going up

Thanks so much guys - I'm a little blown away right now. I'm in shock!

I think al the typos in my first post show how all over the place I am right now - LOL!

My hubby is FIFO so is only just on his way home now. He can't be here soon enough!!!

I've only just moved to a new area so haven't registered with a local doctor yet. Need to do this asap now of course! oops!

What happens when I see a dr.? I'm assuming blood tests then will need to wait for results. How long is the wait? I'm pretty clueless - I never thought this would happen for me (certainly not naturally anyway), so never really looked into this bit. I've not got a clue!

Thanks again so much! You have no idea how helpful this is posting on here xx

just book in to see any dr, tell them you have just taken a pregnancy test & it's positive & you're in shock as you were told at a young age you would have trouble conceiving naturally.

ask them to give you a blood test & make sure it's "quantitative HCG" as that will tell you your exact HCG levels, where as the "qualitative" only tells you yes or no. when i have my bloods done i always find out the same day - like this morning i had blood taken at 11.30am, will get my results at 9.15pm.

all the best xxx

Take your positive tests in - my GP with my first didn't do bloods or pee tests or dating scans. Second time I had bloods and a dating scan as I wasn't sure of dates. You can request one if you want, but don't need one. You need bloods later down the line to check immunity to things like rubella, iron levels etc

Congrats!
