Why a bullseye, you ask? Because this is what the nurse drew on both buttcheeks this morning when she saw my bruising/bandaids from the new needle. I thought we had this shot giving thing down pat. Last night was a breeze! Apparently the only problem was that we were within centimeters of the sciatic nerve. Oops. **blushing** Good news is...that thanks to the big black Sharpie circles I am now rockin' on my rear...we should be just fine!
E2 has gone up...(insert cartwheels, fireworks, high-fives here). That is good news. While it is still a little low, nurse said not to worry. So. I. won't. My lining is looking good, and follies are growing slowly. But, slowly worked for the tortoise...so we will remain positive. Plus, in 37 years I have never done anything really 'fast' (i.e. graduating from college, running the bases, cleaning my room, etc., etc.). Hence, I figure we are right on schedule!
Follies Measuring:
Our hope is that none of those lead (big) follies turn it into high gear and start taking off from the others. Right now they seem to be growing at the same pace....that is good. When the majority of those reach between 16-18mm, I will get my trigger shot to induce ovulation. The RE (doctor) will then retrieve all the eggs exactly 36 hours after my trigger. By that time, my E2 (estrogen) levels should be well over 1,000.
My next appointment is Sunday morning at 9:50. Hopefully I can talk my 'nurse' into making the trip with me :)
