My blood test is scheduled tomorrow, and also got some brown spotting on Thursday, which is Day 11 after the retrieval. I call my RE, and they said there are a lot of reason to get light spotting, like implantation or irritation from Prometrium. I didn't do home test. Hope we are both fine.
I had 9 eggs retrieved, 7 are mature, 6 were fertilized. I had 2 embryos transferred on Day 3; but none of the remaining 4 embryos went through Day 5 I'm also waiting for the test - should be on Nov. 16. Is it close to yours, Deestar? Good luck!
I went to ultrasound Friday again and they found 10 big follicles; others just stay the same size. And I just had the retrieval today, 9 eggs. Now still cramping
Girls, I’ve been taking Follistim for 4 days and they scanned me this morning. We found 26 follicles growing! 15 on left and 11 on right. The big ones are between 9-10mm. I didn’t see this coming.

I have to say I really don't like my RE! We've been with him for more than a year and tried 8 different cycles, and he still got my husband's name wrong! All he said and did made me feel he really doesn't care a thing at all! We live in Western Massachusetts. I don't want to say his name here and he ...
Heisable, I remember at my protocle class, they said they would cancel the retrieval if the follicles are less than four. I thought it depends on the doc, not us, since they have to explain to the insurance company. Or, I misunderstood?
I think I'm a poor responder. They'll check me 5 days later. Maybe I should ask for the US earlier, so that at least there will be some time to adjust if the dose is too low.
I'm going to start the stimulation tomorrow night at 300 I.U. Follistom. This is my first IVF. Before that, I've done 3 injectibles and the dose of Follistom increased from 75 to 150 I.U., but I still just got one Follicle only. As I know, the ideal number for IVF is 15-20 and the retrieval ...
