Molly - It sounds like your RE measures follies different from mine - but I'd say from your Estradiol that you sound right on track! Also, 5+ on each side seem very good - some REs will only tell you about the ones that look to be big enough to hold an egg. So, you may have many more smaller ones too. Don't lose faith, it only takes one! Also, my lining would grow leaps and bounds between days 8 and 10 of stimming, so be patient. It will keep growing even after ER - so you should be just fine.
london - sorry to hear about your cold. What a drag! Your beta is just a week away - how exciting! Definitely too early to POAS - but let us know if you do later in the week.
tburks - I can't believe your commute! Just making it to appointments is so stressful, I can't imagine going through it with your long drive time. Don't worry about the number of follies - many REs believe that less is more because you will get higher quality. Some women will produce 20 but only have a couple viable eggs. Just keep thinking quality, quality, quality! Besides - it is a really good sign that you can feel the effects of the stims so early on. It sounds like you are responding quite well.
