Here's a quick update, I've been up since about 4:30 so I'm pretty exhausted.

I had my baseline appointment today for my IVF cycle.. Got there, got all my blood drawn, then went back for an ultrasound. I have 18 antral follicles (6 on my left and 12 on my right ovary), that's extremely good (in the range with the best pregnancy rates). I then got all of my medication.. sheesh it's a lot! LOL... here's a pic (don't mind the date my camera is being screwy)



Then we had injectables class. That was pretty simple since I already know how to give most of them...

So here's the plan..

Starting tonight reduce Lupron to 5 units a night

On Sunday (the 19th) I'll begin stimming... 75IU of Gonal-F and 75IU of Menopur nightly.

On the 22nd I have to get some blood work drawn

On the 24th I have blood work, an ultrasound and pre-op.

After that is all tentative because it'll depend on how I respond to the medication.
