It was standing room only this morning! The whole world was there! They had stim start on Thursday/Friday for a bunch of people so lots were there.

So the U/S verdict:

Linning is looking good thus far. Nothing out of the ordinary there. Right where it needs to be at this stage.

Left ovary -- Nice and quiet. My usual cyst is still hanging out - Perfectly round and 14mm (0.5 inches.) So, pretty decent. Its still getting drained at retrieval -- its not growing or shrinking... its just taking up space lol. Nice and quiet here otherwise.

Right ovary -- 1 collapsed follicle from when I Oed last month that never went away.. (usually collapsed folicles indicate ovulation within the last 12 hours but we know that didn't happen since i had a period and am only CD7.) If its secreting hormones, I could be out. It was pretty big too and looks like a dehydrated prune.

So between 1-4 today i'll get my phone call with either the go or no go.

Although I did take an OPT and there was no second line at all... which is good. Not even a hint of one. Snow friggin white!!! :-) So i am NOT secreting LH which is a good thing!


My meds (which are to last me all of 3 days.. i am on 4 vials of Bravelle a day... esh!)

I bet you wanna know the results of this mornings blood work ehh?








Cause I mean i am sure you are really wondering..................






Well......





My collapsed folicile will be monitored and is probably turning into a cyst........ but...







it will be drained in 2 weeks..........





CAUSE I GET TO START STIMMIN' TONIGHT!

Thanks!

Those are a lot of meds! The Menopur will last my entire cycle.

The Bravelle is for 3 days, then i get more. Esh! I will go through about 10 boxes of Bravelle. Each box has 5 vials and i need 4 vials everyday.

Stimming is short for Stimulation. Its when they stimulate my ovaries to produce tons of eggies for IVF :-)
