Thanks Chicas! Today's u/s definitely had me sighing with a bit of relief . . . . but then my old freind anxiety kicks in and I start thinking, "What if we are stimulatiing them too quickly? Will it result in poor quality? Will my future children suffer consequences because of this? What if this? What if that?". So I turned the radio up louder, got home, and loved on my Little LoverBaby, trusting God that everything will be ok.

So much for conquering the OCD I see. Love on P some more for C and you'll forget all about this stuff until it is time to...or maybe you could go get a wax??
You could grade my finals, good for some laughs, I assure you. "Ummm, no, I can't answer that, you should know that." "But I don't" What do you say to that??? Or better, "I didn't know to bring a calculator" TO AN ACCOUNTING EXAM TWO OF WHICH YOU'VE ALREADY TAKEN.

LMAO. Thank you students for bringing me some comic relief. And considered me waxed, lol! Only 1 liter of water today though - poorly done.

WaHoo!! Sounds good!

Actually, mine sounds similar - the right big one is up to a 22 (which the u/s tech said was probably a follicle and not a cyst since it is continuing to grow) and then one smaller one at a 10. On the left we have 2 at 16, one at 14, one at 11, and then 4 smaller ones.

Will report back when I hear about the labs. Robin - please do the same!!

With the size of these follicles, I wouldn't be surprised if they had me trigger tonight for an ER on Sunday.

LOL - doesn't it just figure - BP has been off all week and his first day back to work is . . . . . . Sunday, lol. But at least him being off all week has been a life saver with LP so I don't have to find anyone to stay with him at 6 in the morning.

What about your IUI - maybe tomorrow? Sunday?

Fingers crossed!

My u/s tech also mentined something about my lining - still a 12 - but somehting about how they (REs) like it to appear - said mine was "almost there". Don't know if I have to wait for it to get "there" on u/s before I can trigger or if close is considered good enough. Somehting about how it appears and 1 white line vs 2 vs 3 . . . . . I should just stick to what I knon, and this ain't it, lol!!

DISCLAIMER -

I know that my "spelling" stinks! But I have to tell you - it's not my spelling, it's my typing!! I know that "something" is not spelled "someHTing", but I always type it out that way. I apologize for my spelling errors in the past and the many I am guaranteed to make in the future. The spellcheck on here does not work on my computer - hence the multiple spelling/typing errors.

Maybe I should make this a thread of it's own since I know I have made spelling errors all over this forum!! LOL Thanks for not holding it against me.
