Stephen and I got up bright and early again to go to the doctor. Today was our stimulation day 10 appointment which means of course another ultrasound and more blood work. My poor arms are all bruised but hopefully it will all be worth it. Dr. F did my ultrasound again today. She was happy to see that more follicles/eggs had matured over night but she was not happy with what my E2 levels were yesterday which was 990. I found out through reading that for every mature egg your E2 will be 100. Which means yesterday I only had almost 10 mature eggs. During my ultrasound today I could tell the follicles had gotten bigger from my ovaries being very tender and from the measurements she was calling out. The sizes were all over the place ranging from 10mm to 20mm. Really you want them to be closer together in size but that is just not happening with me. Also my lining was at 11mm which she said looked perfect. At the end of my appointment Dr.F said things were looking good but she might make me do one more day of stim medicines depending on what my E2 levels were like.
When the nurse called this afternoon she said that my E2 levels have gone up from 990 to 1550. Which means I have 15 mature eggs. She said that was great but Dr.F wants me to do the higher dose of stimulation meds again tonight. That means I will do 3 vials of Bravelle, 1 vial of menapur, and 5cc of Lupron (Thank God the office had a emergency supply because I only had one vial of Bravelle left).So that means the schedule should be the following;
Sunday-3/7- One more night of Stimulation meds and Lupron.
Monday-3/8- Back to the doctor bright and early for another ultrasound and blood work. Hopefully my trigger shot will be this night.
Tuesday- 3/9- Not sure if I will have to go to the Dr. again, I am assuming I will but I will have a break from all the meds.
Wednesday-3/10- Egg Retrieval Day
Saturday 3/13 or Monday 3/15- They will put the fertilized eggs back in one of these 2 days. Praying for Saturday because I would hate to miss Lynn's birthday on Monday!!
That is all my news for now so until tomorrow Love and Baby Dust!
