    I'm looking forward to getting a lot of home improvement stuff done and just lounging by the pool eating yummy grilled food!

    i start estrace and vivelle dot patches tomorrow. Soooo excited to finally get this party started and nervous at the same time. I got a bfp last time so how likely is it that will happen again?

    I'm teaching summer school this summer and relaxing. We took a few trips in the spring so we don't have a lot of travel planned...yet. My friends and I have a few concerts lined up and probably some baseball games. I don't have a pool but totally wish we did!

    Hi, Blooms! 

    I'm on day 8 of stims today and sort of freaking out after my monitoring appointment this morning... My E2 is 3409! I'm "at risk" for OHSS now, and I'm scared!

    Everything else is looking good. I have 20+ follies (not sure about sizes but I think 14-17ish?), and my lining looks great. They are having me "coast" for tonight with no stims, and I go in for u/s and b/w again tomorrow. I'm feeling pretty achey and uncomfortable.

    They really want me to make it to at least day 9 before trigger for a better chance of mature eggs, so I will likely trigger tomorrow night for a retreival on Monday!!! I'm so nervous! :/

    I'm on day 4 of Lupron. So far so good. My ovaries were pretty sore until today. I read online that it was possible at first, so that made me feel a little better. They seem to be better today.

    For the Summer, we plan on taking lots of mini trips since we spend so much on IVF! We are planning a trip to Niagara Falls for a long weekend and a few zoo and amusement park trips. Other than that, today was my last day teaching for the school year, so I'm ready to relax!
