I woke up early again this morning anxious for my appointments....I can't wait till this cycle is over so I can start sleeping in again...LOL!!
First I got my blood drawn for my E2 level and then the ultrasound. The office was actually quite when I was there this morning, there was only one other girl in the waiting room. I only had to wait 5 minutes today!!
Dr. A started out by telling me that he wasn't going to measure every follicle like last time, he just wants to make sure they are growing appropriately....and they are!! They are all around 16-17 in size (up from 12-14 on Tuesday) and he was very happy with what he saw.
We talked about my concerns with OHSS, even thought he doesn't seem to be concerned. He expects my E2 level to go up from yesterday and then start coming down since I haven't been stimming the last two nights. I will "coast" again tonight, get my E2 blood draw AGAIN (4 days in a row) tomorrow and go from there. I must admit I was a little disappointed today because we might be putting ER off a day or two. The reason for coasting and putting off ER is so that my E2 level drops a bit therefore minimizing my risk for OHSS. I am glad that he is aware of the high E2 levels and is being proactive about it, I just hate waiting. Don't get me wrong, I am thankful to be such a great responder, I am just getting excited so the waiting is killing me.
I haven't had many symptoms considering I have a ton of follicles. I definitely feel "full" but not as uncomfortable as I expected..thank goodness. I also have tenders boobs and lots of EWCM.
Now I am waiting on the E2 level from the nurse and then we will go from there. She seems to think that if my E2 went down Dr. A will have me trigger tonight but I am not getting my hopes up.
**UPDATE**
My nurse just called and my E2 level went down to 3470, which is exactly what they wanted to happen, so I was told to trigger TONIGHT @ 11:30pm. Which means ER will be Saturday at 1:30pm.
I started crying when she told me because this a huge step. I am so excited and can't believe this is happening!! I am so emotional!!
