Baby Pullen,
Wow...where do I begin?? Today has been one crazy day for sure! When I got to work this morning, the ultrasonographer measured my poor, stuffed little ovaries. Initial measurements indicated I had a follicle over 27mm!! So, my nurse and Dr Lipari were very concerned that I was already ovulating! They wanted STAT labwork drawn, but of course, the local hospital doesn't do STAT estradiol and progesterone. I was lucky enough to be able to get into the office of my last RE, Dr. Butler. The entire trip there,I was praying and begging GOD to give me good news. I heard the song, Blessings, by Laura Story. It's sorta been my theme song for this entire procedure. When I got there, the nurse drew bloodwork and another scan. Thankfully, this scan showed my largest follicle was only around 21mm, and according to the nurse my ovaries and uterus looked "GREAT"! So, I got the bloodwork and waited.
I just got the numbers from the nurse, my estradiol was high at 6,659...which does put me at risk for developing OHSS...which of course makes me a nervous wreck! However, my nurse told me to plan to take the trigger shot tonight at 9 pm and be ready for retrieval on Thursday at 7 am!! It's finally time!
Baby Pullen(s)...I want you to know how much that your daddy, sister and I want you. Please know that you are loved and wanted even before you are here.
