Lefty grew a follie! On Monday (cycle day 13) I had an ultrasound to monitor progress after cycle days 3-7 on Femara. The RE saw a "tiny" follicle and told me to come back on Thursday (cycle day 16) to see if it would grow. Well, today I had the second ultrasound and it grew to 14mm. It needs to be over 20mm to be released, and the doctor thinks I'll probably ovulate on Sunday... Mother's day! How poetic.
The doctor took a cervical mucus sample so I was able to watch my husband's sperm swim around as the microscope projected it onto the TV screen. It was by far the coolest thing I've ever seen. They were very active, or as my doctor called them, "happy sperm."
I feel excited that the medication is working (slowly but surely) and that my left ovary was up for the challenge! I'm going to stay hopeful that this is our cycle.
