Had my second pre IUI u/s this morning. I have two follies that are ready and two that should be ready by tonight.
My lining was an 11 so they are super happy about that.
So unless the blood test shows some crazy estrogen crash, I'm on tonight for the trigger and then IUI on Saturday morning!!

So you might end up with four babies? Or is it normal to have several eggs release?

Small possibility, but I have an egg quality issue, so most likely statistically we are still shooting for 1. If I didn't have a quality issue this would be a high risk for multiple cycle. With CJ I had 3 eggs, 2 fertilized and we ended up with one baby. 2 years later 4 was what I was hoping for.

What size are your follies? Wow, you have such a thick lining, especially for your age. We had to fight to get mine to 6.
Congrats Sam!!

Two follies were 17+ and the other two were 16.
They changed it to taking the follistim tonight, then doing the trigger super early tomorrow morning- between 5 and 6 am. IUI is still on for Saturday morning!
Last time my lining was always really good, one place I'm lucky!

I read through your journal this morning. You have to go through this every month? How do you keep your spirits up?

It's really not that bed. I only had to do it 3 times before DS, and this is my first medicated cycle this time around. Hoping it will be my last too!
I also consider myself pretty lucky, even through the losses, I have a perfect son after 3 medicated cycles (15 total) and this time really hoping it only takes 1 medicated cycle since we are going full out. So many ladies on JM have been doing medicated cycles since before I got pregnant with DS and are still waiting.
Plus I have waited a long long time to realize this dream, it's going to take an awful lot to get me to quit now.

Wow! My friends always ask me how I can keep trying after all these losses and you just summed it up Sam.
Nice Follies! Are you going to BD before the IUI?

We were told to BD tonight (DH loves getting a 'prescription' to BD) then take tomorrow off and then we are suppose to act like rabbits after the IUI.
I also told him to pick up salmon, oysters and ****aki mushrooms for dinner tonight. Still trying to figure out exactly what I'm going to do with them...
