Cycle Day 9

Today is CD 9. I've been going to the DR almost daily. Let me say again how much I love them. All of them. Every person I have interacted with there has been a joy - except for the lab tech today - but, whatever. She wasn't mean - she just didn't give a shit. Oh, well. I don't think drawing blood for a living would be that great, either. The down and dirty:

7 follicles
estrogen still rising - ~900 and something today
Endo lining - 7 cm
Dr. K - very impressed with my response

I am pleased. I have a strange peace with this cycle. I don't know if its just because my Dad is having surgery tomorrow and that sort of put some perspective back into my life or what. This I do know - My Jesus saves. He will carry me when I cannot walk alone. We will survive this.

Daddy goes in for surgery tomorrow. He's going to be just fine and totally recovered and retired in time for the twins to arrive so he can babysit :)

SEVEN...my lucky number. I'm hoping it's yours too, girl! And yes, your Dad will be ready for his babysitting duties in, oh, 9 months or so....

7 is definitely lucky! I have been following along for a while now and I can't remember if I commented before. But I thought this was a good time to say I hope your dad's surgery goes very well. I also love your new blog design - so cute! And hopefully your lucky numbers continue for this cycle. Best of luck!!!

Seven is a very respectable number. Quality over quantity, I always say. Wishing the best for your dad tomorrow!

My husband Stuart and I are going to start our frozen cycle soon. We just finished 2 cycles of IVF and both were unsuccessful! If the frozen cycle doesn't work...we will start again on IVF 3! This is the hardest journey I have ever been on. Praying God's blessings for you!

I will be praying for your dad. I hope everything goes well.
