Another hurdle

The one thing I have learned through infertility is to never be TOO confident in what your body (in my case my ovaries) has in store!  Today was my 1st IVF ultrasound and bloodwork for my estrogen & progesterone levels.  The ultrasound showed that the cysts are still on both ovaries...of course they are...why wouldn't they be gone! AHHHH!!!!  The IVF nurse informed me that in order to begin the stim meds my bloodwork be based on my estrogen levels.

I of course knew that the phone call wasn't going to include exciting news to start shooting myself up tomorrow am with stim meds; instead she told me that the Dr. wanted to aspirate the little bastards TOMORROW!!!  OMG!  I guess it is better than "waiting" it out and remaining on Lupron to see if they shrink.  Remember we are on a time crunch: T-minus 30 days until the hubby leaves for 5 straight weeks, so let's aspirate some cysts! LOL

So here we are jumping over one more hurdle to our baby!  Positive thoughts ONLY....wooo-sa!
