First IUI Clomid+Follistim

Hi ladies, 

I just completed my first round of clomid 100 mg days 4-8, went in for b/w and u/s today at CD 9 and I was so excited to see for the first time real activity going on! 
I had 6 follies on my left and 4 on my right...2 on the left were 11+ mm and 3 on the right were 9+. In your experience is this a good response to clomid? How many of these are going to keep growing? I am supposed to start my follistim injections tonight, I am just waiting on #dose instructions from the RE.

    GL at the next monitoring! It sounds like a great response! I have been on follistim for the last week and your response on clomid is better than mine!

    Hopefully those 11MM keep on growing!
