So I feel like a complete nut today but figured it wouldn't sound so bad to you ladies. I went in for CD11 monitoring and saw that I have 2 15mm follicles on my right side and a 10mm one of the left. I have a few others but they are all smaller than 10. Fx that they keep growing.
Now afterwards I made my DH drive me to Ripley's Believe it or Not here in Orlando. They have these African Fertility statues I read about online. Luckily they are in the lobby so you don't have to pay to see them. I basically put my hands on each of them a few times and right before we left put both hands on each of them and said please please work. So hence why I feel like a complete nut. I've posted the link so if you wanted to see what they were. Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
