The doctors had me come back in today for another ultrasound because I still haven’t gotten a positive OPK. They wanted to make sure that the follicles were still growing. The results were promising. I’ve now got one 20mm and one 18mm follicle with a 10mm lining (see my CD10 results here). That means one follicle’s been growing at a rate of 1.5mm per day and the other at 1.00mm. My lining has thickened at a rate of 1mm per day. Yes, I’m trying to show you that I know how to do math! They seemed pleased which in turn makes me pleased. I’ve read online that the ideal follicle size is 20-24mm for an IUI. The plan now is for me to keep using the OPK today (which was negative again) and tomorrow. If no positive OPK tomorrow then we do the ovidrel trigger shot tomorrow night and the IUI on Friday. I’m cautiously excited. Very cautiously.

i’m jealous of your lining, 10mm! the last time i was supposed to have an iui eons ago it was canceled due to thin lining. i’m hoping that it was from the clomid which i’ve been off of for months now. now if af would just start things would be peachy. i’m glad things seem to be looking good for you!
look at the comment i got on my latest blog entry, it pissed me off so bad when i read it that i had to leave it up so other people could read it and be pissed with me! i’m not even so much pissed about the content of it as i am that someone would leave a comment like that on someone’s blog who is writing about infertility.
Wow – that’s great. Your follicles and lining sound fantastic. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you.
