Hey all,

So I hope you can provide me with some insight. I went in for my monitoring appt today CD11 for IUI #1. I have 3 follicles on the right side and 4 on the left. The largest was 15, there was one that was 12, one at 10, and the rest were 8-9. They also did blood work and said they would call me back after the doctor reviewed the results. They then called me and stated that my blood work came back at 83.7 but the doctor wanted to give me a few more days to see if the follicles would grow. So they set up an appointment for me Monday at 730am. I unfortunately did not get this message until 630pm because I was at work. Now the office is closed and I can't exactly call to reschedule my appt because the office doesn't open until 8am on Monday. I know they see people earlier but don't start answering phones until then. I work on Monday 1130am-9pm so its already going to be a long day and now I have to be up early for this. I know I should just put on my big girl panties and deal with it because this is the card we have been dealt but I am soo annoyed.

Plus I feel disappointed in myself because the follicle numbers don't sound great. The nurse said it was fine and they won't have me trigger until we have 1 or more over 20 because that is the policy. Also they have me trigger between 6-8pm. If I go in 2 days later is that plenty of time. I worry because of the 36 hour window. Ahh!! I know that I have no control over this and need to stop worrying/stressing. I am trying my best but I am having a rough IF day. Thanks for letting me vent. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

  • I need to find the link again, but I read a study that said there were more pregnancies with a 36 hour window than 24 or 34 hours.

  • Monday will be a long day, but will be worth it. From your numbers, sounds like you will be ready on Monday. I'm just going thru all this forthe first time too, so I know how you feel. I'm anxious, as I just had my first IUI today, but trying to stay positive.
  • A mature follie produces around 200 in e2 readings so that's why they want you to go longer because your largest follies is no where near mature yet.  Follies can grow 1-3mm a day so I think seeing you on Monday is a great plan.  Yes it will be long but worth it.  And yes, it's all stressful, but if you remember you don't have much control over it and just think "It will be what it will be and we'll figure out a way to handle it" it can help (or at least it did for me once I surrendered the thought of controlling it).
