So I went in for my daily ultrasound/bloodwork this morning. Tonight will be day 7 of stims....I have no idea what my E2 is but my largest follicle is 13mm. Yesterday I know I had 18 measuring 9mm-12mm. Today the tech said I had 9 in the running? I don't know what to think. The nurse said I'm doing great and responding very well but compared to other numbers I've seen those don't seem that great. I started off at 200 ius follistim per day and was dialed down to 75ius because my E2 shot up right away....I'm on 150 tonight. I have 36 antral follicles so I really was expecting to have quite a bit to work with. The tech did say that a lot of times the follicles start growing really fast once you get close to trigger so I'm hoping that's the case for me. I'm trying not to worry about this as the tech also said that they never ever retrieve the numbers of eggs by the follicles on the screen. It's always more or less....They are predicting my ER will be Tuesday or Wednesday next week so there's time I guess.
Any insight is appreciated...I really freaking hate this!!!

Everyone welcome!
I know, I know...that's what I keep telling myself too! My doc has excellent success rates and i just need to trust what he's doing. Sometimes I wish I didn't "know" anything about this stuff so I could just listen to them and not compare/freak out!
Thanks and GL to you too! Hopefully they have some Menopaur to give you if you need more!
