Day 5 stim check

Today I found out that I have 24 follies, 12 on each side. I have 13 measurable and we are off to a great start. I have an appointment again Friday morning to see where we stand. Later on I got the call from my Nurse that my estradiol is 750 and Dr. J is happy with my progress.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!!

Stim, Stim, Stim, Stim, Stim, Stim to Doo

Bravelle and Menopur are officially surging through my body. I could actually feel my ovaries twinging yesterday. It is crazy. Emotions are running high.

I went in for an appointment Wednesday to ask my Doc a few questions and I am confident in our chances. I was starting to worry about a 5 day transfer.... losing them all before I could get them back, and we added the Menopur into our injection schedule.

First stim check is Wednesday. Keep your fingers crossed :)

A new look

Well tonight I had a near meltdown when I changed the look of my blog. I saved the template, and when I switched over and reloaded the template, I had lost all of my information. I was beyond upset. Dear hubby came to the rescue and got me back in shape. The purpose of this blog has always been so I have a detailed account of what has happened during our journey to Baby Ru.

So now I have a new look and I feel a whole lot better than I did 30 minutes ago. Starting stims at the end of this week. Keeping those fingers crossed...

Game On!

With all signs looking down, today turned out to not be such a bad day. I went in for my early AM appt only to see the cyst still there on my left ovary. I cried during the sono out of frustration thought it would be a pretty slim chance seeing stims this month. I had my blood taken and off I went, down as ever.

This afternoon I called back in for my results. I found out my estradiol went from 466 last Monday down to 44 today. I was so grateful. So even though I missed this weeks stim cycle, I start stims the 2oth with an ER the first week of December. We will see what happens next...

And there it is.... a cyst

I have a cyst on my left ovary. I guess it isn't a true cyst. It is a bit smaller than what is considered a cyst, but it is producing enormous amounts of Estradiol. My estradiol level is 466 and they want it to be under 50, so yah......

Now I have to go back on the pill for a week, taking the pill 3 times a day and I get rechecked on Monday. I am not sure what this means for us, but I am trying to keep thinking positive.

Now what else can happen? Just waiting.....

Baseline tomorrow

There is nothing like a date with the sono machine to start up a new IVF cycle. Tomorrow at 7am, I will be in the Doctor's office getting checked out and Thursday I start stims. Shots have been going ok. The lupron headache started yesterday and it is better today. Having back spasms from the football game yesterday. Yes... I am falling apart.

Feeling so Full!

Tonight we are at the inlaws and I feel so full. We ate at TGI Friday's and I enjoyed a nice dinner, but I still feel so bleh! I think I have felt bloated since I was doing estrogen for our FET and it just hasn't gone away.

Started Lupron tonight... stims coming soon... more feeling full to come. Atleast I have my yoga pants on :)
