Doctor's Visit # 3- Day Eight Stimming

Today was a very good day! i feel very blessed and positive about my cycle and the direction my life is heading right now. Today I had my third office visit and everything was very well. I don't get the exact number or size of the follicles but i can tell you i have at least 12 on the right and nine on the left. There at least 6 near mature on the left and nine on the right. My E2 blood work came back really good and i should be triggering on Monday and my estimated retrieval is on Wednesday. I'm really excited and i just want to focus on my prayers and my faith.

Third Office Visit - Day Six Stimming

Today was my was my third visit with the doctor with ultrasound an blood work. Taday i had my follicles measered. the ones that were measurable were between 4mm and 9mm! The nurse informed after i start taking y Menopur tonite they will grow a lot more really fast. So i'm ready to get this party really started! As i said tonite i'll start taking my Menopur along with my bravelle and my Lupron. I was confused fir a bit because i called the nurse about mixing the bravelle and the Menopur together but she said no. But today during the visit my nurse told my that i would be able to. so i'm going to take her word for it since i'll do anything to get out of taking more shots!

Stims day 4

Today was my forth day stimming and my 1st doctor's appointment since starting stims. My doctors appointment went very well. Blood work came back very good, and my uterine lining was perfect. I have a estimate of 12 follicles on each side! That seems very good to me. During my injections today i experienced some burning when i took the Bravelle due to the fact that i injected to far to the side, there was a bit of blood too! it didn't last long though. Today my emotions were well in check and i feel super especially since i finally had a day off from work and was able to relax a bit. So until nest time....

Doctor's Appointment #2

Today was my first observation appointment after starting stims. The nurse who did my ultrasound said my results look perfect so far. From what she can see i have about 12 follicles on each side! So i may have 2 dozen eggs! Way to go! I'm still waiting for the blood results. I'll post again tonite. My meds change today from 4 vials of bravelle to 3 vial.

Day 3 Stimming

Yesterday was my third day stimimming, again the shots were uneventful and almost painless. Side effects... Well I cried twice so maybe I'm a bit moody...And my husband has become public enemy number 1! So yeah i feel a bit on the crazy side.

Baseline Ultasound..second time around

Well you guys it has begun! yesterday i had my second blood draw and ultrasound and the results of this one was considerably better then the last one. The ultrasound was promising. The "cyst" that was i the last one had disappeared, the uterine lining was nice and thick, and they had no problem finding my ovaries. So they told me that i would probably be starting my Stims the next day(Friday). So later that day around we got the results from the blood work and everything was within good range and i was ok'ed to start my stims! So today was my first stimming day. I took four vials of Bravelle with 1ml of solution. along with 5cc of lupron reduced from 10cc. The shots were uneventful, painless, and no after effects so far. Wonderful! Let see what tomorrow brings. Grow Eggs GROW!!

Aunt Flo!!!

It's the waiting game again. Today i went in for my Baseline Ultrasound ans E2 bloodwork. I now have to wait for the doctor's office to call me later today to let me know if i would be ok for me to start meds now or will i have to wait a week because m menstral cycle has yet to start. Arg!! I had my schedule just right and now it may be dirupted big time!! On top of that during the ultrsound the tech said she saw something near my left ovary that she did'nt believe was a cyst but the doc has to check it out any way. This sucks. I'm so ready to get this thing over and done with it's not even funny. How much longer!!!!
