Grow Follies Grow!

Today was the last day for my follicles and eggs to grow and mature.  It is 9:50 PM.  In a mere 12 hours I will be parted from my eggs, and they will be cultured and then introduced to our donor sperm.  It's exciting and anxiety producing at the same time.  I found out today that Sarah 2 will be my nurse during the retrieval.  I love, love, love her!  I love both of my Sarah's.  She was our nurse at the last retrieval and made us both feel at ease.  I'm still hoping for 9 eggs.  My estrodial went up again a bit today, which is good.  I did take a HPT to make sure the hcg was in my system since my RE doesn't test specifically for that, but rather for progesterone and estrodial.  The HPT was a blaring ++.  So, we are good to go.  Thank you for all of the kind thoughts and prayers.  I really appreciate it.
