They're Growing....

I just got back from my first monitoring appointment for this cycle. There are still 27 follies growing in there- today's count was 15 on the left and 12 on the right. The largest on each side was about 8-8.5mm. So far so good. The doctor I saw this morning was happy with the progress and once my blood work is back, I'll hear from him as to what we are doing with my meds. I am assuming everything will stay the same considering the growth seems to be right on target for the first few days of stims.

I have my next ultrasound on Wednesday morning, so after that I'm sure we'll know a little more about how things are looking! At this point, I'm happy there are plenty growing, but a little worried about OHSS. My doctor said if it becomes a problem we'll just freeze everything and do a FET, and while I am perfectly ok with that.... I DON'T WANT TO WAIT ANY LONGER!!!

I hope you all have a great 4th! We're planning to BBQ with friends and just have a super relaxing afternoon! I love that kind of days :)

PS... Men.opur hurt like mad this morning! I managed to live through it, but it is now bruised and sore- BOO! On my way into the doctor I had convinced myself that I had put the wrong needle on for the injection. I didn't, but now I am slightly dreading tomorrow morning!

Glad the appointment went well! Hopefully tomorrow's Men.opur will be much better than today!
Happy 4th of July!

Sounds like you are making great progress. I have heard that Menopur really burns, hopefully it will all be worth it in the end! Good luck with your next injection.

Sorry to hear about the possible OHSS. I was there and it totally sucks. Here's hoping you won't have to put off transfer. My doctor let us go through with transfer as I wasn't a very bad OHSS case so it was considered safe just uncomfy for me. Everything went fine, and I'm not sad we didn't wait.
