It's confirmed! Cindy Lou Who's retrieval will be on Wednesday! She has so many follies that they had to put her on low dose HCG yesterday to calm her estrogen down. I'm not sure how that works, but all I know is that we don't want to put the poor girl in the hospital with hyperstimulation. She was supposed to do her HCG trigger tonight which will prep her eggs for the retrieval. My last Lupron injection will be tomorrow morning.
Andy has to be in Charleston by 8:45 a.m. Wednesday to work his magic. Please let the swimmers cooperate. Luckily we have a batch that has been in storage for a couple of years as an emergency backup. Never hurts to be prepared! We pray that this trip will be worthwhile, for we all know what happened the last time he drove down there. What a waste!
They will call me Wednesday after her retrieval to tell me how many eggs we have, and then again on Thursday to let me know how many have actually fertilized.
Eeek!
Thank you all so very much for your love and support. I don't think I could have gone through the last two years of treatment without this blog. Talk about a support group!
We are packing for Charleston and getting the house straightened up so that I don't have to worry about it while on bed rest next week. I will be in touch as soon as I have more news!!! :)

It's time for the petri dish party - whoot whoot! I'm hoping that Cindy Lou Who's ovaries respond to the hcg ice pack so she is okay and that you get lots of good eggies! Cheering for you over here!
Prayers coming your way! :)
Praying for good results, Jessica!

Praying, praying, praying!! Let me know how it goes tomorrow. And when you get home on bedrest, I'll come help clean your house if you need it...who knows, maybe I'll bring Chick-fil-A (I always need a good reason for that, haha). :)
