Update on my Femara cycle

in Trouble TTC
I don't think I posted about my last appt. I went in on CD13 after getting a def. +OPK. I was assuming I'd still have to go in for a few more monitoring appts as CD13 is just way early for me to ovulate. Well I had one huge follicle at 25.2 mm!! Sadly it was the only one, but the CRNP assured me lining and follicle size was great! I triggered that morning and I'm pretty sure I ovulated yesterday.
I know I didn't ovulate Tues b/c that was my appt. and b/w showed I hadn't ovulated yet but my LH showed I'd definitely be ovulating soon.
So right now everything seems to be on track. I go back in on this Tues. to get more b/w done to check my prog. I'm getting a little antsy about the 2WW...I've never had so much hope before (at least actual hope and not blind hope).
Congrats to the recent BFPs!! I'm always rooting for my ladies!!

Re: Update on my Femara cycle
I hope this is it for you! I have everything crossed!
FYI ~ FWIW: On my first Femara cycle I only had one measurable follicle, but for all the Femara cycles afterward, I've had 2-5 follicles. Hopefully this will be your only one, but if it's not, maybe that info will give you some hope.

I am close to your schedule- I triggered on Monday, IUI on Tuesday and had one follie about the size of yours and possibly a second but it was hard for her to see in the u/s.
Keeping fingers crossed for both of us!
