Stimulation Day 10We have about 20 follicles on today's ultrasound! She is doing much better than I ever did...geez. I was told that there were quite a few more, but they were smaller than the others. Keep in mind that we're going for quality vs. quantity. She could spit out 50 eggs, but that doesn't mean that they will all be mature. We won't know until the actual retrieval, but at least this gives us a good idea!
Our nurse is 99% sure that the retrieval will take place on Saturday 4/30/11. Our donor has another ultrasound/labs tomorrow to confirm this. My nurse will call me tomorrow afternoon with medication instructions and an appointment for Andy in Charleston to give a babyfish sample. I will have to start progesterone-in-oil (PIO) injections soon, so I'm getting the heating pad warmed up for those. Andy will basically be injecting my butt cheek with molasses twice daily...awesomeballs! Please pray for my butt...and for Andy to have a steady hand! I think that I will be stopping the Lupron injections this weekend too...thank goodness. Menopause ain't no joke.
Time to get the bags packed for a roadtrip to Charleston! So excited! After six redonkulous years, we may actually have a good chance at becoming mommy and daddy soon!
