day 8

So today was day 8 of stims and looks about the same. I may have some smaller follicles popping up but they are too small to count just yet.

Left ovary I think I have a 9 and 10 (not quite sure on these since the tech said nothing and I had a hard time hearing the nurse on the phone).

Right ovary I have a 13.5 and 14.5 (the tech did say they were a bunch of smaller ones. The nurse never mentioned them).

My estrogen was 359 so that seemed to have doubled.

I start ganirelix tomorrow morning.
I am a bit worried about other follicles catching up since I already have 2 that are almost mature. My previous cycles on this date I had my largest follicle measured an 11 and I had 5 in the 10-11 range and my estrogen was in the 500s.

I know having 2 follicles can still mean a baby, but it worries me since my last 2 cycles I only produced 6 eggs and they only made 2 embryos by day 2 so if history repeats itself I will need at least 3 eggs just to make 1 good embryo.

Trying to stay positive, but it is hard.  I go back on Saturday, hopefully by then more will have popped up.
