I had my first appointment yesterday to check my follicles and do some blood work. I was super nervous going in because we could find out that I'm not responding to the stims and there are no eggs or very little eggs developing. Well that wasn't the case. They counted 14 follicles. She informed me that some may never develop in to anything, but I'm ok with that. The Dr likes to have at least 7 at retrieval, so we are on the road for success. My blood work was also good and they did not change my dosage of meds. I'm getting so excited. I can't believe my retrieval is Monday. Time really has flown.
Update on the shots. I am done with the Gonal F, and am now only on Lupron and Repronex. The Repronex has still not burned, however it does leave a huge knot on my stomach and makes it very sore. I'm running out of stomach space. Good thing I will be done with these shots on Friday!! I have my next appointment tomorrow. I will give another update then.

Wow!!! Retrieval really snuck up quickly. I'm SO glad to hear that you've got great follies developing. Can't wait to hear about the retrieval!!!
Isn't it crazy how the time flies during IVF?! I'm so excited you are so close to retrieval! I will be checking back daily for updates ;)
And although I completely understand... December is going to come so slow for those of us awaiting the results :)!!!
