Chug chug chug chug...

Time to really be hitting that Gatorade!!! Trigger is for sure tonight, hurray!!! 

I've had three different u/s techs over the past 10 days so there's bound to be variation. Plus my left ovary likes to be difficult and not cooperate, so it's not surprising that yesterday there were 11 follicles on the left and only 7 today. The largest ones are now "gone" just like my last cycle...so I'm totally sure that I've got the case of the hiding follicles again this time. Last cycle they came and disappeared like a magic act so I'm assuming that the 12 follicles they quoted me today are only a portion of what they're going to retrieve on Tuesday. Yesterday my right only had 3 follicles but today it has 5!!

My e2 is a great indicator that there are more than 12 follicles. Its 2737 today...up from 2130 yesterday. Based on previous cycles, that e2 would lead me to believe there would be 18 eggs to be retrieved and probably 10 or 11 mature. Now, considering the fact that I've been on the CoQ10, DHEA, Vitamin D, and HGH injections that number could be higher or lower (hopefully higher though!!). Regardless of the outcome, I'd just like to have a high % mature and a great fertilization rate for those that are mature. That alone will make me happy and hopeful.

Hopefully if I can just get another perfect 8 or 10cell embryo on Friday, the AH and biopsy that I had done last month will stick it in good and we can close this chapter of our lives ::sigh::
