Decision made (sorry PW today)
Hey girlies. Thanks for the advice earlier. Sorry for being so needy today.
We decided that we are going to go ahead. I never get to have follies this size (22) because we are always balancing too high estrogen with follicle size (biggest triggered at before is 19).
So, we will try. And even though I may regret "wasting" donor sperm, at least I won't wonder what if we had tried and it worked.
Regardless I was going to have to trigger, so at least this way we gave this follie a chance at life?!?!
I hate you IF.
