I had my second appointment this morning. Today is cycle day 10. I messed up in my last post, and I thought Sunday was Day 9. So, I went for another bloodwork and ultrasound before work. And I know I said I was going to remain super positive this cycle, but I'm feeling a little discouraged...
The nurse/tech lady asked if any other doctors ever said I had a problem with my lining. Ummmm no? The doctors I saw in HI, were military doctors, and they weren't all that thorough with IF issues. So, of course I immediately thought, "What's wrong with me now???" She said the lining of my uterus was still pretty thin. It's supposed to thicken through the cycle, and I guess mine is being lazy. I asked her if there was "still time." And she said yes, but she didn't sound very confident about that answer. Then she told me that there was only one dominant follicle at 14, on my left ovary. No wonder I've been crampy on my left side. But I googled "good" follicle sizes and most RE's like follicles at 17 at least before triggering. So I'm hoping and praying that within the next couple days, my lining fattens up and I get some follicles cookin'. My next appointment is this Friday...
I'm heading to bed early tonight. The Femara has me feeling extra exhausted and I spoke to soon, when I mentioned I wasn't having any hotflashes! Ugh. They are awful, especially in this weather.
Hoping Friday shows some progress. :)

Come on thick lining!!! Grow follies grow!
I like being your own personal cheerleader! :O)
I had issues with my lining when I was on Clomid and then again on Femara, and each time they saw it was too thin then gave me an estrogen patch to wear on my abdomen..which, I guess, is supposed to thicken it. Just food for thought...maybe you could ask them about this..
