Cycle 31....

To sum it all up....

CD 2, went in for baseline u/s and b/w.  U/s showed that the cysts are gone...but there was a lot of fluid in my ovaries.  Whatever that means?  Guess it wasn't too bad, because Dr. M. sent me off for b/w (which was an E2 level of 36).

I stimmed that night (CD 2) even though I asked if it was too early and if it was too many units.  I was told twice that it was fine.  I stimmed for 6 days total, which brought me to have b/w done on CD 7.  I called on CD 8 and my E2 was 846.  So...of course they wanted me to come in for an u/s.  I mean....CD 8 is super early to ovulate, but I had just gotten a + OPK the day before. 

So....u/s at CD 8 shows 6 follies (one of which looks like it might be almost ovulating based on its shape).  No suprise really.  I trigger on CD 8 and show up the next day for my IUI.  DH's post wash numbers were 5.2 million (95% motile).  Not horrible!  We decided to do b2b IUIs this time also.  So I went in on CD 10 for another IUI.  We had 4.7 million (100% motile).  So if nothing else....Cycle 31 has shown us an improvement in post-wash motlility.  Hey....I have to look for the silver lining somewhere!

I start my progesterone tonight and will continue until..............hmmmm
