This morning there were still 15, now they are between 8-18mm. Grow follies!!! Grow!!! Last time we had 6 mature out of the 10, and then a 7th one matured within the first day. Let's hope for at least 8 this time around.
Meds are being decreased again today, and I think we may trigger earlier and may have a Thursday ER. The only problem with that is that I know I cannot take off more than one day this week, so I guess I will be going to work the day after. I am still not totally sure how I am going to swing a few days off next week....though I don't think I will self-impose 3 days of bed rest this time around, maybe keep it to one or two.
So, along with the wonderful follies and headaches, Menopur apparently also brings crazy Andrea. And I mean crazy. I got so mad at Greg yesterday for not helping mow the lawn (among other things) and totally freaked out. Sobbing, yelling, throwing things. And when he told me that I needed 'to control myself' I really flipped. Then I cried for a half an hour. I feel kind of stupid about it now, but at that point I was completely not in control of my emotions. At all. It is kinda scary to think about. Good thing there was nothing sharp around to throw. Because if there was I may have an injured husband, and hopefully a good defense in court. All of you would testify in my defense, right? :)

OMG Menopur is crazy...yes the headaches. Yes the burn. But instead of wanting to kill my husband, Menopur is boosting my libido BIG TIME.
But as long as they grow your follicles like that it is soooo worth it!
Congrats!
I have just started following your blog...as I am trying to get pregnant myself. I just want to say that I really understand about the "crazy" side that comes out and the headaches. Wow, fun stuff. Good luck.
awesome awesome report. good for you.
did your husband really tell you to "control yourself"? EEK.
I totally know what you mean about being out of control. I always feel foolish afterward too, but what can you do?
Sounds like you are moving right along with the follies! That's great news.
And, no worries about the meltdown. Check out this post from my blog: http://conceptiondeception.blogspot.com/2009/03/meltdown.html
Hey, you've got a good excuse, you're on massive amounts of hormones!
Yay for a Thursday ER! I'll be cheering for you!
Yes - been there with the hormonal craziness and rage!
Yay on the follies!!
woot woot!!
dude, seriously.
while taking clomid my dh asked me "what's wrong?"
oh man did that bring a fight about. wtf do they think pumping massive amounts of drugs into our system is going to do?? bah
but woot! Sending growing vibes your way!!!
andrea- don't be too hard on yourself. It's ok. Fresh air and a nice walk helped me get my shit together when i felt like I was going to loose it- and so does a good cry/scream into a big pile of clean laundry. :)
Happy to hear things are going well with the follies. I stimmed early too and I think bed rest on the day of the transfer only is just fine (that's what I've read and dr. told me). Just take it easy for the few days after, don't run to work, and don't stress about it. YAY! Just think early retrieval means less menopure!! Can't wait to hear how it goes. Lots of great vibes coming your way!
i remember b saying something to me to the same effect of "control yourself" and i completely lost it. asking him if he wanted to inject his body with hormones and not be able to control himself?
these drugs make us crazy.
i would totally testify for you :)
