Well, we got off to a slow start in the stimming department. At my first US appt, I had 3 on the right and possible 3 on the left (couldn't really see the left because of the cyst and bowel being in the way).
At the second US appt, the right was still 3-4 but growing; still couldn't see the left very well. For the 3rd US, the right ovary had exploded. There were 7-12 small follies on the right; still couldn't see the left. Went Sunday (27th) for US number 4, and things were looking up. Finally could see the left ovary and there were multiple follies on it as well. Both ovaries and their follies are growing nicely. Went in this morning for US number 5. Things look great. I have probably 8-15 follies in the 15-16mm range. I will go back in the morning to see how things look, but most likely will trigger Thursday for a Sat harvest. That is going to be a little tricky, since Sir Chance's 1st bday party is Sat. We will make it work... don't have a choice I suppose. Hopefully I can be the first harvest of the day so I don't have to worry about missing his party.
So now we wait to see how these follies are growing. I am glad they are growing slower than the last harvest.
The lab tech P said to me on Friday that we are going to get 5 good embryos with this cycle; she can just feel it. I sure hope not! I only want one more pregnancy! What would I do with 5 kids??!! Of course maybe not all of them would stick when transferred, but you always hope they would. So transfer 3 and hope for twins; then what to do with the last 2? Donate them? Not sure I would want to destroy them, and certainly not keep them on ice the rest of eternity. How would I feel knowing I had 2 children out there being raised by someone else, and my children had full siblings? Interesting dilemma raised when donating embryos.
All things to think about.
Nothing to worry about until we know for sure if we get good embryos.
