Friday update
April 25, 2008
Bright and early I was at the doctor’s office for my ultrasound. On Tuesday, my ultrasound showed that I had 14 follicles ranging from 6 to 11 millimeters. A mature egg is in a follicle that is approximately 17 or 18 millimeters. Today I have 21 follicles ranging from 9 to 32 mm!!! Not quite sure if the one that’s 32 mm is really that big, or if it’s two that are really close together that look like one. Not that it really matters, because what matters is that the follicles are growing, my estrogen level has leaped up to 1791 (from 513 on Tuesday) and everyone is quite pleased with the progress we’re seeing.
Quick tangent - They opened a Peets Coffee and Tea on the bottom floor of my doctor’s office, which made my morning just that much better as I skipped out to my car to head to work!
My nurse called to tell me that Dr. Potter wants to see me again tomorrow morning, and that we may be moving along more quickly than expected. So, I’ll have another ultrasound at the crack of dawn (8:00am), and Dr. Potter will tell us when we’ll be doing the egg retrieval. We’ll give another update tomorrow when we wake up from our nap.
Yippee. ..this week has gone by so quickly and it’s been full of joys and blessings.
