This is our month...

I went Wednesday for my cd13 ultrasound and it showed I had 2 follicles 1 on each.side measuring at 10mm each. Here we go again or so I thought. Same thing happened last month. I was getting ready to brace myself and I asked the ultrasound tech what she thought. She said it looked better than last month so I was a little relieved. The nurse called me later that day and said to come in Friday for another ultrasound to see if they are growing. On Friday morning I went to my appt and things are going my way, the follicle on my left grew to 16. Are you kidding me? Their supposed to grow 2mm a day but that's more than that if they were 10 on Wednesday and now 16. So I had to make another appt on Saturday and if they grew to 18 then I will have iui on Monday. So I went in this morning and can you believe it, it grew to 18.5...woo hoo! I gave never been so happy. Kevin came with me this morning and when she told me that I gave him 2 thumbs up haha. She said do my trigger shot of ovidrel Saturday night and come in Monday morning for iui.

I've been doing tons of research these past few months and I found some interesting articles on eating pineapple starting the day of your iui. You cut the pineapple in 5 pieces and eat only the core, not the meat. Too much meat of the pineapple can make you have a miscarriage. The core of the pineapple helps with implantation. Its the bromelain in the pineapple. So it won't hurry to try it. I'll eat 5 pieces for 5 days starting Monday. You can also do this for ivf. So I will be taking it easy these next few days. Monday after my iui my plan is to lay in bed and watch TV and movies all day :)
