Sono today after stimming since Friday

Sono today shows 4 follicles on the right and 6 follicles on the left. They range in size from 5mm to 8mm. 

Next 3 days I will take Bravelle and Lupron in the morning, and Bravelle and Menopur in the evenings.

The shots are taking a toll on me, but to hear that they are working rejuvenates me.

 

Thats my update for today!

    I'm sorry that you're a human pin cushion right now, but you're almost there! Just take it one day at a time...says that girl who only has to take one lovenox each morning while my H plays the LMFAO "Shots" song through the bathroom door.Embarrassed

    Looks like we are in the same boat.  I started stims on Friday as well.  I went in for bw and sono today.  They are counting 17 follies for me right now, I think 8 on one side and 9 on the other.  I am on Follistim and Menopur at night and a small dose of Lupron in the mornings

    When is your tentative retrieval?

    I was a 4 shot a day girl too.  I'd rather do the 4 shots in the belly vs the 1 shot of PIO, but I digress.  Glad to hear the follies are starting to respond.  Keep growing follies!

    I have a question, my wife has been taking the same medication as some of you ladies and we have had good follicle results.  We have had 2 failed IUI and 3 failed IVF treatments. They have done exploratory surgery on here 3 weeks ago and found nothing. We are running out of money and she will begin her cocktail shots again next week for our final try do to finances, along with blood thinners they want her to take HGH ( human growth hormone) and I at this point am against it. I dont want to loose my wife in an effort to have a baby. I don't know everything about HGH but know that many athletes have taken it and some of them are not alive anymore. Has anyone heard of this before? If so could you please give me your opinion? This would be greatly appreciated!!! Thank you and good luck to you all, I wish nothing but success!!!

    How is the stim going? I start the same meds this coming Friday, I drop my Lupron from 10 to 5 tomorrow morning. I remember being really sore from the stim my 4th IUI and that was only 5 follicles total.....little nervous about how sore I might be.....

    Too funny about the human pincushion! I hear that from my mom a lot! My husband can relate....he's Type I diabetic, so I get more sympathy from him. LOL 

    I've also decided to add to the pincushion effect with acupuncture. Twice a week...around 30 needles each time! Whatever might help though, I'll do!!!!

    GL and baby dust to ALL!!!!
