I had my first round of blood work and follicle check this morning. The blood work is to check my estradiol level check (estrogen). In a natural cycle this number prior to ovulation is between 200 and 600. Mine today (cycle day 5) was 425, this number will continue to increase as I "grow" more follicles. As my estradiol continues to increase so will my emotions. Not a pleasant time for me.
Now on to the more exciting news - I had 4 measurable follicles today. Each follicles houses the egg. Hence the name of this post "basket full of eggs" because that is what my belly is beginning to feel like.
I get to skip tomorrows invasion at the clinic, but after that I will be going in daily for my blood work and vaginal ultrasound. Fun times are just around the corner.
