Well, I went in for my b/w and u/s again today. This is CD 11, so the expectation was check follicle growth, have injection tonight, IUI Wednesday.

The u/s showed that my right ovary is producing pretty much nothing. My left ovary has one follicle that is 16mm (needs to be 18-22). B/W confirms that it isn't time yet. So the nurse told us to bd Tuesday evening, Wednesday do injection at 7:45pm, then Friday at 7a.m. we will do the insemination.

I really do not feel hopeful, because it just doesn't sound very promising to me with so little follicle growth. The left side had a few others but they were really tiny.

I feel so... I don't know... it seems so strange to me to think that my body will not allow pregnancy to occur. That the reality is that we must have medical intervention in order to have any chance, and that even with that the chances are not great.

Anyway, I just wanted to give an update b/c I thought I would be doing the IUI a bit sooner than I am.

On the plus side, I started my masters program today and all went really well. And... the professor is having us come in 30 min. late each day, so on Friday I should be almost on time to class, which is good.
