Just call me Henny Penny
. . . and no today the sky is not falling down, no acorns are landing on my head, today I am feeling good. I went for a scan this morning on day 7 (instead of day 10 which is the normal day) because my body LOVES the drugs and LOVES to over-react to them. So I have lots of lovely little follicles (approximately 14 and they all hopefully contain an egg). My follicles are all a nice size for such an early scan AND my hormone levels are looking pretty good also, they are sitting just under 3000 whereas last time when I was not monitored so closely they soared up to 22 000 (no wonder I went slightly crazy, poor L!!) so all in all a good result today.
Where to from here? Well I will have another blood test tomorrow morning to check my hormone levels are still within a normal range and then a blood test and scan on Friday morning, as long as everything is still looking good I will take my final injection which they call the pregnancy injection, (this matures my eggs ready for collection) on either Friday or Saturday evening dependant on Fridays results, then egg collection will be either Sunday or Monday morning. Ohhhhhhhh I really feel like we are getting somewhere and although I do not want to get my hopes up as I have been on this ride too many times before and realise just when you think all is going well and you feel on a high that damn rollercoaster turns around and takes you crashing back down to earth with a ferocity that astounds you, i still have to acknowledge that today things are good! So yes today I am excited about todays results, tomorrow is a whole new day and I will worry about tomorrows results then.
Tonight this little chicken with all her eggs slowly developing, growing big and strong will sleep well.
