Went in for ultrasound and bloodwork and things are...well, exploding...really.
Left Ovary: 22, 20, 20, 18, 18, 17, 14...and some smaller
Right Ovary: 17, 17, 17, 13, 11, 9...and some smaller
A slightly nervous moment came when the nurse called with the bloodwork results this afternoon and said, "Your estrogen level is 4,600. You need to come into the center now and get a centrotide shot to stop your estrogen level from skyrocketing."
Um, yeah. So I went in and got the shot. What's one more, really? They said everything will be ok, but that my eggs are really raring to go.
Trigger shot was tonight at 10:45 PM for a Friday morning retrieval.
Here we go!

Catching up here Mo. I'm so glad that the stimulation is going so well. Sending a lot of good thoughts your way that the retrieval is great and the microarray results are good for many of the embryos. C'mon universe, it is sooooooo much Mo's time.
ReplyDeleteWoot! Crossing everything!
ReplyDeleteThis is IT! Praying like ANYTHING for you here in South Africa :)
ReplyDeleteYAY!!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome follicles there! I am so pleased for you. One more hurdle passed with flying colours! Thinking of you and hoping that the good news continues. Good luck with triggering!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! Keeping my fingers crossed for you guys!
ReplyDeleteThinking of you, Mo.
ReplyDeletegood luck! I hope ER goes well.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck at retrieval. I hope this is the best "vacation" you've ever had.
ReplyDeleteThose are fantastic numbers!!! Good luck on Friday!!!!
ReplyDeleteI also triggered last night (for IUI #10) on Friday; I know you're freezing all, but it's nice to be on the same schedule. Wishing you the best!
ReplyDeleteI'm honestly surprised they made you take the Cetrotide at that level...mine got to 6700 before they did that. You're doing a freeze all for CGH right? At any rate, congrats on a great count and hoping for tons of mature eggs!
ReplyDeleteWow! Very, very good! Here is hoping for a basket full of mature eggs that fertilize beautifully and contain at least one embryo that finds a 10 month home in your fluffy uterus.
ReplyDeleteGOOD LUCK!
Wowza! Your ovaries are rock stars (reality tv stars?). I can't wait to hear about retrieval & beyond. Thinking of you, hoping you're getting a bit of touristing done...
ReplyDeleteJust catching up, sounds like things are really moving! Sending lots of P&PT ya'lls way!
ReplyDeleteWonderful news! I'm so happy and I really hope you get some great eggs! Best of luck tomorrow!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic news!
ReplyDeleteHoly over achieving ovaries batman!
ReplyDeletegreat counts no matter how you look at it, perfectly great numbers-- so happy to think of you being retrieved tomorrow- YAY!
very good news that.
Fingers crossed, crazy hoping with all my might.
with love,
Kate
Go, Mo, go! You've got kickass ovaries. ISo happy to hear that stims have gone so well. I'll be waiting with baited breath for the ER update. Good luck! Break a stirrup!
ReplyDeleteLook at you go, lady! I'm over here pulling for you! XO
ReplyDeleteGood Luck tomorrow! I hope everything is smooth and easy, with a great crop of eggs! Wishing you all the best!
ReplyDeleteyou're on your way! Good luck tomorrow and through the next 2 weeks. Take care of yourself this weekend!!!
ReplyDeleteSo exciting Mo! Good luck at your retrieval!
ReplyDeleteLooking good! I think you must have a lot of good eggs in there raring to go. Hope retrieval goes smoothly, egg and sperm get it together, and you end up with a lot of embryos that ace the CGH testig. And of course that you get a sticky baby out of it all when you transfer one of the good ones!
ReplyDeleteExciting times! Good luck tomorrow!
ReplyDeletegood luck tomorrow! I have everything crossed for you!
ReplyDeleteWishing you lots and lots of luck!! Come on eggies!
ReplyDeleteYAY! Sounds like a great crop. Hoping so hard for you.
ReplyDeleteWow, Mo you are the eggiest! Glad Will is there now and hoping all went well with the paperwork etc. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteCatching up myself. I'm really glad they decided to trigger you. Good luck tomorrow with the retrieval and fertilization. I know how hard all this can be. Big hugs to you!!
ReplyDeleteCrossing my fingers for you.
ReplyDeleteDon't let the doc talk politics when you are anesthetized. (Mine asked me who I am voting for - doesn't she know anesthesia is like truth serum? Good thing we were voting the same way!)
Go, Mo's ovaries! Fingers crossed.
ReplyDeleteHoping for a smooth and very productive retrieval for you. Good luck!!!
ReplyDeleteNice size follies!! Good luck with retrival and can't wait to hear more news!
ReplyDeleteGood luck, today. I hope this is it, girl!
ReplyDeleteYAY MO! I had retrieval yesterday and they got 23 eggs. Much improvement from my little 9 last time. Thinking of you will all the baby dust I can muster and hoping for babies for us both!
ReplyDeletethinking you're being retrieved right this very moment,
ReplyDeleteand HOPEFUL beyond everything that you'll have SCADS of mature eggs, all will fertilize normally and you'll be off to the races.
Hoping and sending LOVE
Kate
