Looks like my ovaries are being lazy. Slowly, but surely. Today's ultrasound showed 6 follicles on the right. Up from 3 at the last ultrasound. The left ovary like always, hid. It took her a long time to find it and even when she did, she didn't get a clear picture of it. She saw 5 follicles. Last time there were 6 on the left, so I'm going to go with that since she didn't have a good picture.
The largest follicle was 1.7 cm, so I'm in for one more day of stims, maybe two. I'm just waiting to hear back after the doc goes over bloodwork and all. We only have enough stims left for one day. I'm torn between wanting to be done tomorrow or going another day. Another day will be more money (and a whopping 11 days of stims). But if it makes the difference between more mature eggs, I'll gladly pay the money. Eric is freaking out about it. The money thing stresses him out majorly. Maybe they can donate us one day's worth of meds.
So retrieval will be sometime this week. Earliest Wednesday, but more likely Thursday or Friday.
I am still exhausted all the time. I didn't have my normal weekend midday nap yesterday and had to go to bed at 8:00. I wanted to go to sleep at 7:00, but made myself stay up for another hour.
So more waiting. I'm at work and can't do anything because our database is locked down. I hope it opens today so I'll have stuff to do to distract me from the waiting.

Damn our lazy, coy, left ovaries :)
If you want value for your money, and the RE recommends another day (or days) of stimming, I say do it! You've already paid a ton of money to get to this point, why stumble on the finish line.
Keeping my fingers crossed for donated meds, a smooth retrieval, whopping numbers, great fert report and the whole enchilada!
