one more day

So we had our 3rd u/s today. The first wasn't hopeful, looked as though my right ovary wasn't responding to the meds and left had 4-5 growing symmetrical and perfect. Fast forward to the second u/s which was right after my acupuncture session, and my R has one hanging out the right size, 1 > 10mm and several less than and pretty sure the good number on the left is 5. Today we go in, it looks about the same just everything is slightly bigger, about 4 hanging out in the 10-12 range and the doc says we will trigger tonight... In the early afternoon I get a call from the doc saying my estradiol is looking way better than anticipated and he thinks my eggs could benefit greatly from stimming one more day and changing trigger to tomorrow. I was so happy, see my DH and I fit into the IF category where we have both male and female factors, my factor being low ovarian reserve. That is the reason I am on the flare protocol first time around. But my estradiol after stimming apparently means it was not as bad as we thought. So today I am so proud of my ovaries and I am hoping this last stim is enough to help those 10-12s catch up and become mature retrievable eggs.

On another note, these shots suck. Sometimes I don't feel the needle but most of the time I do, and they sting, all of mine sting for about 10 minutes or so. But I only have one more stim med tomorrow and then its on to the PIO and that will be worse. Ohh, and I found out that because I am transferring on a Saturday, I have extra days added to my 2ww before the beta, because my clinic does not bring people in to do them on the weekend... yuck.

Other than that I am doing great, nausea being my biggest side effect.
