Day 8 f stims

I went in this morning for another ultrasound and blood work. Good news....I have several follies that are over 14.5 mm already. The ultrasound tech said a lot has been going on in there since Thursday. She also told me that there are more than enough to work with. YEAH! =) I thought that was wonderful news to hear. They instructed me to keep my Lupron the same, lower my Follistim to 75 IU and to keep the Menopur the same at 2 vials. I have another appointment Monday at 10:30. Hopefully we will be ready for retrieval soon. It is so close I can feel it. Keep praying for healthy embryos.

Day 6 on Stims

Clay and I went in this morning for another ultrasound and blood work. We actually got to see how much the follies are growing. The biggest ones are over 10 now. There must be over 20 of them. I was instructed to keep my Lupron at 10 units, lower the Follistim to 100 IU and continue on the 2 vials of Menopur. I have another appointment Saturday at the Metairie office. Lisa (our IVF nurse) gave me all of the paper work for pre-op and I had to go to Tulane Lakeside to pre-admit since they do not allow you to do that on the weekends. Lisa also gave me my instructions on who to take my medication following egg retrieval. We are definitely getting close. My head is spinning from all of the information that I have in it. =)

Day 4 of Stims

Well this morning I went in for my ultrasound and blood work to see how things are going on the stims. Everything looks awesome. Lisa said we have a couple of follies that are 8mm and several 5mm, 6mm and 7 mm. They want me to keep my injections the same and I have another appointment on Thursday at 10:30. It is looking like my egg retrieval will be on Tuesday August 26th. Now the only concern is what is Tropical Storm Faye going to do. Pray everything goes great.
