Had my second ultrasound this morning. It’s all looking quite good. My left side has a 14, 13, 10, and 9 at less than 10mm (12 total), my right side has a 14, 13, 13, 12.5, 12, and 6 less than 10 (11 total). Those are some good numbers, right on par for last time… but hopefully this time my E2 hasn’t gone crazy.

I still have some baking to do, the nurse is expecting retrieval to be on friday or saturday! Yay!! I’m hoping for a saturday retrieval, simply because if it’s on friday I’ll have to take the day off work and come in saturday, which, judging from last time, could be a very unpleasant day to work. Maybe I’ll just come in on wednesday instead.

Random annoyance: even though I went to the bathroom right before going in to the RE’s office, I still had the overwhelming need to go potty ASAP while sitting half-naked on the exam table waiting for them to come in. Ugh! It’s the worst part of ultrasounds! I ended up just laying back on the table (they have a pillow there for you!) and trying to relax while waiting. Once they come in, of course, I am fine because I’m so busy looking at the U/S screen and jotting down notes… I forget all about me laying there being wanded. (Except when they have to press a little to catch my ovary. That’s uncomfortable.)

Oh the fun of ART.
