So today I went in for another Doctor's appointment. I had blood work done along with a ultrasound. My estrogen level is at 1,107 today from 721 yesterday. I have 12 follies on my left side measuring 13,12,12,12,12,12,10,10 and other small ones. I have 18 on my right ovary measuring 17,16,13,13,12,11,11,11, and other small ones. I have to decrease my dosage of Follistim to 75 units tonight. I go back in tomorrow morning at 9am for more blood work and an ultrasound. I am in pain today as well. I feel like I have two tennis balls sitting where my ovaries should be! I just want to lay down and not do anything! I hate that I have to work during this process. My mind is basically 100% on my IVF process. I just want to go to sleep and wake up when its all over...but I don't own any fairy dust and this is not 'La La Land' so I guess I just have to get used to it. Time is going by fairly quickly and I am thankful for that. I will post my new numbers and any other information I get tomorrow! Talk to you then...

you're doing great, honey...and i know you have the determination and desire to continue to do great! Pamper yourself...be easy on yourself. this is alot to go through physically & emotionally, so do what you can to make it easy on yourself and Chris. Keep your other committments to a minimum, and take this time to enjoy the whole experience with Chris. thanks for sharing!

your Mom said it all, she is a sharp cookie, listen to her sweetie she will help you weather the bad days. You are doing great, don't forget that this is one of the most difficult things a woman can do and you are making it happen. That baby is there somewhere just waiting for the right time. I am proud of you!
