Had my first follie check for IVF #4, and well, things are looking good so far. I go back Wed. OK, I admit it, I am a teensy bit excited about how this is going. Might I make it to retrieval this time?
I think I will wait until Wed to go use it, but in the meantime I think I will hang to the Gatorade coupon that was in the Sunday paper, just in case... Or is that being too optimistic?
Hope everyone is having a decent Monday. Take Care!
Re: This morning I heard "Everything looks great!" Wha?
Yay! Glad to hear things went well!
I hope you won't need the coupon!
