I'm so sorry. I hope those follies get their acts together and you are able to move ahead with IVF. FX!

So Sorry, hang in there. I hope you don't get cancelled. Does your Doctor have a minimum number of follicles he recommends for a retrieval? I think you said last monitoring you had 6? So you should still have 5 growing right? I have gone in for egg retrievals with only 3 follies. But see what your doctor thinks. If they think you'll respond better another month - it might be worth it to wait. Either way - I know the limbo is tough!
Me:38 - TTC for 3+years - Multiple failed IUIs (w/clomid, femara,injectibles - all BFNs) IVF #1 - Jan 2012, CP -IVF#2 March 2012, CP - Went back to IUIs all summer. Multi-Cycle Egg banking for FET. Egg retrieval #1 October, 2 frosties. Retrieval#2 January 2013. 6 eggs banked - waiting to be fertilized in March, FET March! Zero eggs survived thaw process - FET Cancelled. New RE - Now banking Embryos for PGS - July ER- 3 eggs retrieved, 3 fertilized, 1 genetically normal embryo! FET - Feb. 2014, BFP - Mar. 2014, EDD 11/6/14 It's a GIRL!

Yup I have 5 now. They don't recommend moving forward with 4 or fewer. So if there's still 5 on Saturday, we have a choice to make. If there's only 4, then we'll do IUI.
