Was down but not out!

Today I went for the dreaded blood and ultrasound.  I hardly slept last night because I had no idea how the day would turn out.  My estrogen level on Tuesday was like 32.  Today it was over 500 so I am very happy.  Tuesday I didn't have any follicles over 10mm.  Today I have 21 follicles with 12 being over 10!  When the nurse called asked if she thought I would make it to my egg retrieval and she said yes and everything was moving along fine.  I just have to go back tomorrow for another ultrasound and blood and I have to go back every day until  have 2 follicles that reach 18mm and then we trigger ovulation!  I am just nervous that I will stop progressing but the nurse said that I should progress.  So I am very happy with the news and I just hope it keeps getting better!
