Yesterday was the big day when we find out if my lining and follies responded well to the BCP and lupron to start stimming. No cysts, lining is thin enough and there are at least 11 happy sleeping follies just waiting to become our babies! As long as the b/w comes back ok today (all other signs indicate it will), then we start stims tonight! We also signed the consents, learned how to do the rest of the injections (only the huge progesterone needle is a bit frightening), and wrote the big, fat check. We are both feeling so happy that we are starting off on the right foot and we're excited again for the first time in a while. Now the fun playing with hormones really begins.
