tell me I am obsessing over nothing....sorry for TMI but I am so confused.
yesterday my e2 was 2509---my follies were as follows:
Left; 17.5,17,17,17,16.5,16,15.5,15.5,15.5,15
right: 14.5,14,12,11.5,11.5
today my e2 was 2530
left: 17.5, 17, 16.5, 16., 15.5, 14.5
right:17.5, 17
Something does not add up??/ what happened to the 11.5-12's on my right and the 15-15.5 on my left????? Do you think the sonographer missed something?
Anyways I am triggering tonight....They said I have peaked and they do not want me to decline so trigger it is.....I am freaking out here. Overall they said I have 30 follicles but look slike they only measuered 8 today....something tells me this is not a good cycle....

miyaya-maybe they only counted the "big ones" and the smaller ones will catch up by retrieval? did you ask your tech doing the u/s? I wouldn't stress and try and relax before ER!!
Katie-I'm hoping those 3 follies they didn't see today come back for ER!!! xoxo

miyaya -- I'm with Claudia... I think they only measured the largest of the follicles... the ones they know will most likely be mature. Of course, they will retrieve whatever they can. Good luck! Your numbers sound pretty great to me!
katie -- Oh hun... how disappointing this all sounds for you. Don't beat yourself up for letting RE talk to you into this IVM. Who knew? Besides, it could still work.
Ashley -- 3 positive HPT's is a GREAT sign. I'm pulling for you to have very good news.
franny -- Oh, I know that cramping feeling. You swear it's AF, but nothing. I read as much as I could when I was in my 2ww and it seemed like the cramping occured in both postive's and negative's. Don't dwell on it. Hang in there, I have everything crossed for you!
Heading to the gym for a spin class with DH. Everyone have a good evening.
Lou--- 1 beautiful baby girl from a single 8 cell embie in Sept 2011
Katie - I'm so sorry for what you're going through. There is a big group of women here who sound ready to come up there and get your RE in line. While we're at it, we'll take care of "new and clueless" nurse too. Seriously, I will be thinking of you and hoping for the best for your eggs.
miyaya- that is really confusing. Sounds like your sonographer was slacking today - I don't see how you could have fewer follies today. Good luck with the trigger!
Gi - good luck with your surgery tomorrow. They're getting you all nice and ready for your cycle!
Claudia - That's great that you're ready to go! I wouldn't worry too much about going to work. Ghost is always saying there's no research supporting a need for bed rest.
Franny - We're all with you - don't let your mind go south on you! I wish we could all hang out to keep our minds off the wait. OF course, if we were all in the same place, we'd probably talk about nothing but IVF! Big fat good luck for your beta tomorrow.
Es - I'm hoping all went well today!
Ronda and Sam - looks like we will all be in the POAS club on Sunday. Fingers crossed for all of us.
Karen - that sounds like great news for your retrieval!
Kim - I'm hoping for the best for you tomorrow!
AFM - I'm doing ok in the wait - it's going quickly, I guess (thanks, work!). I don't really feel much going on, just a little crampy and weird. I felt kind of loopy today, like i hadn't eaten all day, but I had. I'm most worried of getting a call on Monday that I have another low beta (or a chemical-in-waiting). I don't know if I can take another one of those. I've got two tracks going on in my head all the time, about plans if I am or if I'm not pregnant. If I don't get pregnant this time, I'm going to wait until April to try an FET with the frosties we have from cycle #2. And then, I think we're done.
I'm hoping to see more BFPs tomorrow! And a big double beta from Jacqueline! The next week is going to be pretty exciting here!

Riley! great news......I am so happy for you. I hope there are more BFP's to celebrate.
Claudia, Beth and Lou~ I have no idea. Its so weird b/c yesterday the smallest measurable I had on my left was 15....now they are saying 14...and I had 5 on my right....now only 2? Do you think I could have ovulated on my own? Can they just disappear?????My sonographer was a bit on the rushy side today....the one I usually have takes her time and double checks things....today I was just a patient....I was shipped in and rushed out! Ugh! I guess there is nothing I can do about it. My fear is we trigger too late....they are doing a 38 hours harvest this time....last time, the largest follie I had was a 17 and at harvest we only got one mature egg....they think doing HCG this time and extending the harvest time will help....I hope so but I am feeling a bit leary!
miyaya - Yeah - that's very weird - it's not just that she didn't count the small ones, but that she didn't count big ones that were there before. I think they just rushed you, I don't think follies can disappear. I know when my RE does the u/s (is it strange that my RE does this himself every time?), he has to root slowly to make sure he sees them all. I imagine if he rushed it, he wouldn't see them all.

Jac-FANTASTIC!!! YAH for beta more than doubling!!!
Miyaya-I am sure they rushed you and they would tell by your b/w if you ovulated which I'm sure you didn't. I know it's natural to be nervous about all of this but try and not overanalyze it!!!
Katie-PMA, PMA, PMA!!!! Good luck with the trigger and I'm pulling for your follies that wanted to play hide and seek today!!!
Franny-thinking of you for tomorrow
off to go teach!!!
lots of love

I only have a quick second but wanted to comment to Franny!
Franny - All I can say is "Get out of my head".....LOL!!! I am having the exact same thing. I feel a slightly crampy like the kind I get just before AF. I keep running to the bathroom to check and see if AF is here. I also had the dream that I was pregnant and DH did the same night as well. I don't remember my dream from last night, but then again I didn't sleep much as I kept jumping up to see if AF was here. I tried going to a movie today with my mom to get my mind off of things didn't work though. Halfway through the movie I was sure that AF was here but I tried to enjoy the movie anyway and didn't want to freak my mom out. When I got to the bathroom still no AF...YEAH!!! This is the longest wait ever. Let me know how tomorrow goes....I will be praying for you as I wait for my test results as well!!
Good luck everybody and Congrats to the girls who got the BFP's....hopefully we will join you tomorrow!
i just wanted to jump on and wish my 2WW sisters good luck tomorrow! kim and niki i will be thinking of you both while i am having my B/W. i have to go in at 645am for this...and then do you think i'll be able to go back to bed?? yeah right!! i hope they dont wait all day to call me. i'll be honest i'm really scared for that phone call. i have no idea how i'll be able to pick up the phone. i'll be home alone all day, and with DH being a teacher i wont be able to call him. (plus if its bad news i couldnt do that to him in the middle of the school day!)
anyway i'm crossing everything for all 3 of us tomorrow!!
katie are you ok? i'm thinking of you!
riley thats an awesome 2nd beta!! wooohoooo!!

jacqueline yay girl! doubled!

With DH in town I haven't had much time to get onto the computer... but I see we have some new BFP's and I wanted to send them a big huge congratulations!!
Also to those girls who are frustrated - hang in there..... we're all pulling for you.
Had our last ultrasound/ bw yesterday morning and the doc stopped counting follies after he got to 9 nice ones (all about 17.5 or so) We think there are about 16 or more.
Here's the thing.. my E2 was 10845? Isn't that crazy high? We triggered last night and ER is tomorrow morning. I'm pretty excited and nervous about the high estrogen. I went through a over-stimmed IUI where my e2 was way over 8000 and never got ohss... but what i'm reading says this is a high level. Sigh.. Any thoughts?

Kim, Niki and turtle~ GL today! I have everything crossed for you all and hope we hear some great news!
DanandMe~ Holy E2!!! OMG! You are an egg making machine! I am so jealous!
AFM, I have been up since 2AM stressing. Can I ask a dumb question? When you O on yoru own...or are about ready to...what happens to your E2? Does it plumet or is it a slow drop? But I seriously am stressing....the last couple days i have been so bloated....felt like I was sitting on my ovaries....well yesterday I had a lot of CM and now....I feel nothing...no bloating, no pressure....nada! So of course I am freaking thinking I O'ed on my own. When they did my most recent b/w they only looked at E2 and not LH or progesterone....I do not need 10 eggs or anything....just two good ones....I hope they did not push me too far and we missed it! part of me wants to cancel this cycle (I just have a bad feeling)...its a lot of $$ to risk for a poor er....this is likely our last chance...we are out of $$. Not sure how we wwoudl come up with more and financing is a no-no...we just bought a new house and I need a new car....we would be so strapped! Am I just overthinking this? I need someone to talk me off my IVF ledge!
