IVF for me!

Sooo.... I did claim to be horrible at keeping a blog/journal :)

So much has happened since November. The last IUI we did didn't work :( so onto IVF we go. We had to wait out December's cycle, and then everything started this month. The next few entries will be the IVF journey as we go through it.

This is a snapshot of where we stand right now.

12/28 - Started Lupron; 1o units in the morning.
1/7 - AF started
1/10 - went in for my baseline u/s and b/w - all clear and we got the green light to start!
1/12 - decreased Lupron to 5 units in the morning, and started 150iu Follistim in the evening
1/16 - b/w - E2 862; continue with same protocol
1/17 - u/s and b/w; E2 1581 and 6 follicles on the right and 8 on the left, all measuring between 12 & 15. Lining was at 7.2. Continue with this protocol until Wed morning.
