I went in for what I thought was my last appointment with my RE before our ER next week only to be told after my ultrasound to get dressed and let's talk in his office.
Never a great sign and to top it off I had no choice but to bring my DD with me today and I thought I was going to break down right then.
So I get to his office and he tells me I have a few follicles that are measuring much much farther ahead at this point (3 or 4 lead follicles) and if the others do not catch up by Saturday's appointment there is no point doing a retrieval. This cycle has a very very good chance of being cancelled! Seriously I'm so so done with IF! I obviously don't want to move forward if we are only going to get a few "maybe" eggs but I've put my body through hell and now another issue.
I broke down on the phone with DH after I left the office and told him maybe this just isn't meant to be! Of course he is still so positive and said we will figure it out. ![]()
Please pray that a bunch of my little follicles catch up because if this cycle is cancelled I really don't know where we go from here.
