Update: My appointment went great! The follies on the left did squat in 24 hours but the ones on my right grew to 16, 18 and 20. The nurse gave me my trigger shot and it didn't hurt at all, thank goodness! Thank you all again for the positive thoughts and vibes- they worked
ETA: My lining also increased to an 8.5!
I had my follie check this morning and oh.my.follies. I guess my ovaries liked the 100mg of clomid opposed to the 50mg because they've been working overtime! My first clomid cycle I had two mature and my second cycle I had one mature. This morning I had two 16mms and a 14mm on my right and two 14mm and a 15mm on my left! My lining was at a 7.5.
The two 16s were actually 16.74 so my RE is confident they'll be at or over 18mm tomorrow- which is the smallest they'll trigger at. I go back at 8am for another scan and my trigger shot-- eek! I'm a little nervous cause I've not done a trigger shot.

I'm glad to hear your personal experience and I'm glad it wasn't bad. Ever since my first loss I've been stuck with needles quite a bit it seems so I'm a lot better with them now, but just not knowing what to expect freaks me out a little! Fx mine was as painless as yours!
Thank you all so much for the support/ rooting me on! I'm very excited for the potential in this cycle and I virtually have nobody IRL to share it with. I do share with DH but I don't go on and on talking about the 'possibilities' and such because I don't want to pressure him near O time!
Thanks again
PAL/PGAL Welcome
thats great... was it triple layered?
my lining was 7... it was triple layered. I havent done the trigger yet either i will most likely do it tomorrow if I do it before you i'll let you know how it goes!!!
Yeah I know what you mean - I was terrified. I had DH do it the first time and that really helped (not watching it at least). A few other pointers people gave me was to rub ice around the area to numb it a bit and pinch the skin while you do it. I used ice the first time, but after that I realized it wasn't really necessary. FX it's super smooth for you!

2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

I haven't entirely decided yet. A big part of me wants to because when my LPs go past 9 days, I begin to get super anxious to POAS since I've only had 2 cycles like that in the last year! If I do, when should I start? I was thinking 7dp trigger- does that sound good? I don't want to start too early and waste all my HPTs!
