Fast Growers

Tuesday, February 02, 2010

u/s yesterday went really well! Unexpectedly, though, I already have 20mm, 17mm, and 15mm follicles!!!! I guess the increased dosage really made them grow fast this time!! AND, if you can believe it, the 20mm is on the LEFT!!! I guess we finally got that one into shape!! My RE says he's surprised I only have 3 (he might have preferred 4), and I'm sort of thinking the same thing, but he is very happy that the left one is cooperating and that all three will most likely ovulate.

I got estrodiol bloodwork after the u/s, and they are calling me with the result this morning, but my RE expects to have us trigger tonight and have the IUI on Thursday morning. It will be our first weekday one! Good thing, too, because Mr. A's family just told us yesterday that they'd like to visit this weekend!

Guess who will (probably) be 10dpo on Valentine's Day?? Hahahahaha, why do I do this to myself??

I notice that the meds tend to make my follies grow faster, too. Plus, I'm fast all on my own. Best of luck with triggering tonight!

Wow - those are big guys. How many did you have last cycle? I can't remember. I'm decreasing my dosage so I expect small numbers.

Good Luck!

YAY! Beautiful sized follies! Hoping this is your month. Maybe you'll know on V-day. Wouldn't that be exciting!!!

As for "why do you do this to yourself"... haha. Who knows? I do the same thing... pure torture... except that as soon as I have my ultrasound, I start playing with due dates and finding significance in the due dates. Haha.
