Here we go

I had my first monitoring appointment of IVF cycle #2. Today was my baseline; they drew blood to check my e2 level and did an u/s. I actually found the vein for the IVF nurse, which wasn't hard because I only have like 2 good veins in my entire body. But, she got it right the first time, which was nice. I also asked them to check my FSH level, purely to satisfy my own curiosity - I'm sure it is fine.

As for the u/s, my lining was thinned out (2.7mm) and I had 87 antral follicles. Antral follies are potential eggs. I have 87 potential eggs. 41 on one ovary and 46 on the other. PCOS is actually paying off, for once.

So my RE should be calling me this afternoon with my b/w results and to tell me the dosage for my first couple days of stims.

Dear God, let this month go by quickly and please let this be our BFP cycle!

Amen.

ETA - My RE called. My e2 was < 30 and my FSH was 6. So good and good. Yay! And I am to start stims tonight at 150iu of Gonal-f.
