2nd Ultrasound Check

This morning at 915 I had my second u/s & b/w for my first IVF cycle.

Its funny, I felt some pressure the past 2 days especially on my left side so of course I expected to see a TON of LARGE follies...not so much (not bad though)....

My lining is 10
My Estrodial i 1,033
My LH is .07
Left ovary 16,14,13,12,11.5,10 (4 less than 10)
Right ovary 15.5,15,14.5,12.5,10.5 (5 less than 10)

When she called to give me the results I told her that I understand every body's body is different but how am I doing? She said that I am responding excellent to everything! I thought based on what I saw on the u/s screen that they would have me do 2-3 more nights of shots but she said they just want me to do one more tonight and come back tomorrow for a check-up again. She said although she is not my doctor my retrieval will probably be Wednesday or Thursday.

I cant believe it...I actually get butterflies in my stomach when I write that. I try not to get to excited because it does not always work on the first try and I am only putting one back in so....well see. I honestly just hope I have at least one or two to freeze so I don't have to do the shots and BCP's if this first try does not work.

Do you wonder like I do why it wouldn't work? There is nothing wrong with either of us besides my lower hormone levels...you would figure we'd be a shoe it right? But, with that said wouldn't you figure if that was the case that we'd be a shoe in to get pregnant the good ole fashioned way or through IUI? Guess again - apparently nothing wrong is not enough.

Stay Tuned...

  2. Yay! And I think your numbers sound great. Our cycles are very close. I found out this morning at my 3rd check that I'll be triggering tonight and retrieval will be Tuesday morning! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for both of us.
