CD9 update

So I went in again yesterday morning, things are still looking good but the decreased dose of FSH didn't help my follicles grow as much as they had hoped. I still have 5 lead follies (thankfully more didn't grow!) that are measuring 14mm, 13mm, 12mm and two 11mm. My lining is at 10mm, which is awesome. My previous cycle on Clomid my lining on day of trigger was 6mm (which was CD14.) So my lining is thicker now, 5 days earlier than it was our previous IUI.

All my hormone levels looked good.

The plan:

Increase FSH to 75IU's for 2 nights
Continue 15cc low dose HCG for 2 nights

Come back in Thursday 10/27 morning for another scan and labs. They're also going to check my prolactin levels again. So after 10pm tonight, I need to fast so that I can have that blood work done as well.

Tuesday they had to poke me twice since my vein didn't cooperate the first time. She started digging around trying to find the vein and I ended up telling her to just try again on my other arm. I don't mind needles or being poked and can generally take pretty much anything but I really get a little sick to my stomach when someone is digging for a vein.

We took the dog to the bark park today, he flew around like a maniac. I ended up walking around the perimeter of the park to walk a full mile, I actually ran/jogged a loop of it but then remembered that the RE doesn't like workouts except for walking during stims. We were there maybe an hour or so and I gave pup a bath when we got home.

Chris and I actually took a nap today, I think it was a 2.5-3 hour nap. It was wonderful but I am still feeling like I could go to bed right now. Chris is gone to a union meeting so pup and I are just hanging out on the couch. I've gotta be up early tomorrow for my appointment so I will probably go to bed in the next hour or two.

I didn't get a chance to talk about it but I went to a Resolve meeting for the first time last week. I think I like the idea but I am not sure if that specific meeting is for me. I may try out a different one that's a little bit closer to home for me. That one is the first Friday of each month, so it's coming up.
