Today is Day 3 of IVF #3. I think it sounds kinda catchy :) I had my baseline yesterday. Slept like a DREAM the night before - which is odd - usually I toss and turn and totally stress out. It could be the lupron...
My Dad also had an appointment with a neuro-surgeon. Last week when I posted that a lot was going on, he didn't want anyone to know. So, since some of my IRL peeps have my blog, I had to respect his privacy. Long story short - he has a tumor on his spine but they think it is NOT cancer and just a fibrous tumor. He'll have surgery a week from today and a 3 month recovery period. We felt so much better after seeing the neuro-surgeon! It is still extremely serious, but we were so relieved to hear the Doc say that it probably isn't the big c.
I continue to LOVE LOVE LOVE my new RE. Even the receptionist is just the sweetest! Its so different there than the last place. They even warm the lube on the dildo for you! Now ladies - THAT IS SERVICE!!! hahaha. It was nice though, much better than the shock of the cold it normally is.
Drum roll please....
I had 27 antral follicles. Yes ma'am - I said 27!!!! That's right - 15 and 12.
Oh - and on my CD1 post - I said my beta would be 2/18 - I can't count. I think it will be 2/21 if ER is on 2/8.
Not to continue to compare my REs or my cycles - but my first IVF - I had 8 antral follicles. Needless to say, I wanted to hug my nurse!!!
Here's to many more positive days in the weeks to come!

Yeah! Sending positive wonderful thoughts your way!
You know the saying "third time lucky" and it looks like that is certainly going to be the case for you.
I'm so glad I have a cycle buddy! I know I'm not quite doing IVF but we are doing all our stuff at the same time.
Big hugs

So exciting... I am sending positive vibes your way. I hope this cycle is the one.
I hope that third time really is the charm.
I am sorry to hear about your dad. I hope his recovery is quick.
Twenty seven, holy crap. That's awesome. You know how sometimes you blow on your hands to warm them up? That's what went through my mind when you said that they warm up the lube!
YAY! Wow 27! That is GREAT! I am so excited for you!
Wow! Congrats on your starting point of 27! May it be a sign of good things to come!
Also, saying a prayer for your Dad......hope all goes well.
How exciting! Sending you positive vibes and hoping that 3rd times the charm.
You are off to the races, sweetie!

Sounds like a great number! I'm hoping the best for you and surely this new and improved RE is a sign of things to come!
Sounds like you're off to a wonderful start. Hope your dad feels better, soon.
Woohoo! Congrats on great numbers! I'm happy to hear things are going well with your new RE...sounds like the switch has made a big difference. Keeping my fingers crossed for you for the ER!
I don't think I've had that many antral follicles in all my IVF's combined. LOL. You go girl!!
I'm so glad you are much happier with your new clinic. It can really help the emotional part of this journey, huh?
