My follicle check is tomorrow morning at 8am. I am so nervous that my little eggs are not growing. The reason I am fearful of this possibility is because when I first took Femara {my current med} in 2009, the cycle started out promising with 5 potential egg contenders. But then, when I went in for my final check a few days before my IUI, the ultrasound showed that none of the 5 eggs had gotten any bigger and my IUI was cancelled. I didn't remember this little tidbit until going back and re-reading my blog entries from that time period --- since I found out I needed open heart surgery a few weeks after that, I think I kind of forgot the other non-essential details and it all blurred together. Anywho, I'm really nervous that it's going to be that way again. Granted, I have ovulated 5 out of the last 6 months, but maybe my eggs aren't mature enough when they release and that is why we're not getting pregnant. See, queen of the What If game.
We'll see what the ultrasound shows tomorrow. I've felt twinges in my ovaries and have been silently cheering on my little eggies to grow, baby, grow! I'm hopeful for at least 2 viable eggs - one would be ok, but more would give us better odds. Thanks in advance for your prayers and positive thoughts!
