And they're off....

My follicles finally got the message and seem to be getting into the swing of things. On my ultrasound this morning, there were several larger follicles and my bloodwork showed that my estrogen levels have tripled! (This is a good thing, as long as it doesn't get too high). The doctor said that I should not be worried, he thinks that I am just a "late bloomer." I don't have to increase the medication dose anymore! So, I go again on Monday morning and they should be able to schedule my retrieval!
Meanwhile, I am really starting to feel pretty crummy. I am certainly not complaining, because I am willing to do whatever it takes! If this is what I need to go through to have a baby, bring it on! But, please continue to pray for my health and the side effects of the drugs.

But, do you want to hear the best news of the day?
My friend Marnie had her baby "Grandry" today and it is a...... GRANT!
She did such an amazing job and he is SO handsome! I was so honored to be in her delivery and document her special day with pictures! Congratulations, Marnie and Brad! I could not be more thrilled for you!
