So I've been lax in posting my Stims details. Needless to say, it's going well.
Cycle Day 6 - Stims Day 4 (last Thursday)
e2 - 644
Prog - 0.5
Follicles
Left: 6 between 10 and 13 mm
Right: 1 @ 11mm 7 @ 10mm
Cycle Day 8 - Stims Day 6 (Saturday)
I've got this one written down at home, so I don't have the exact numbers
e2 - 1600ish
Prog - 0.7
Follicles
Left: 1 @ 16 + 5 more
Right 1 @ 15 + 5 more
Cycle Day 10 - Stims Day 8 (Today)
No lab values yet - I promise they're coming (I do want to track for my own future reference if nothing else)
Follicles
A whole bunch. Largest ones are in the 20 range. I'm looking at probably one more day of stims and then trigger tomorrow. there weren't many at 20, so I think they'll probably want to let them cook one more day. And that's what the doctor implied during my ultrasound this morning. We're getting close to the home stretch.
When I look back at the last micro flare cycle - this is looking about the same. I started off with a couple more countable follicles this time (maybe that means I'll have a few more eggs to work with? So, it feels good and it feels bad. We got a good crop of eggs last time, and 7 of them ended up fertilizing, but none were transferable... THAT REALLY SUCKS, and I don't want to go there again.
Other than that. I'm doing pretty good. Jakobe and I had a weekend out. We went and stayed in the Davenport Hotel, spent a lot of time reconnecting with each other, and ti's probably a good thing, cause the last couple of weeks have been pretty rocky for us. The IVF itself is a lot easier(Mostly because I don't deem to be a hormonal, moody, emotional train wreck!)
Last time about this time I told you all I felt like the Sta-Pufft Marshmallow Man. It's true. I have another way I've been describing it this time:
Imagine that you have to fart - really fart - and you just can't. You can feel everything built up in your belly, and it's just not going anywhere. Yep - that's where I am.
I'll get you the final update on what day 10 really looks like a bit later.
