Ever so slowly...

The good news is that we had follicle growth at this morning's appointment.   The bad news is that it only brought us up to an 11.   The lining still looks great, so we are soldiering on with more Bravelle.   Three days at three vials each followed by two days at two vials each.   I go back Wednesday for another follicle scan.  That would make it cycle day 26.  I wonder if there is ever a point when it is too late to trigger even if the lining still looks good?   I think if this cycle doesn't work we may have to take a cycle off simple because of the cost!  We are at $2200+ for this month alone, and we still need to order three vials of Bravelle (at least) and do the actual IUI.  That isn't even counting the free ultrasound, and free drugs we have gotten, which would bring us well over $3000.  Life would be so much better if I was responding better!

Keep your head up! I did gonal f for 30 days and my lining was looking great. Now I'm pg with quads. Its all good as long as the lining is good! KMFX for you!

Yikes, I feel for you! That is an expensive, long cycle. I'm glad you are seeing things heading in the right direction. I will keep my fingers crossed for you! Good luck!

New to your blog. I know it can be very discouraging not responded to the drugs. Try to keep your chin up. Hoping this cycle works for you..
