I've been feeling great the past couple of days; I'm excited about job searching, I feel positive about this IVF cycle, and I feel physically great. I've got to get exercising though. DH is going to the country until Sunday, and I'm going to try to get a walk in when I get home, and another tomorrow morning after I go to the lab.

Speaking of, my E2 count yesterday was 1234 (I love the orderliness of that number), and I seem to have my carton of eggs (a dozen!) going. The 2 on my left ovary are looking good, and they're still thinking 10 on the right. I believe we got more eggs than we though we would last year, so at least a baker's dozen would be nice. I told DH that's what I wanted the other night. He threatened to up my dosage on his own so we'd get closer to the 17 we got last year. But my new mantra is: it's QUALITY, not quantity! Although 12 isn't a bad number anyway.

The wait has been longer at the lab this year. I was usually in and out in a half hour or so last year, and the shortest time this year has been about 55 minutes. I suppose more people schedule cycles in the summer? I'm sure it's simpler for teachers and people with kids in school to do everything then. My last cycle was in the spring. I don't remember seeing any pregnant people last year, either, but there have been this year. It doesn't bother me, but I know it hurts some people, and it looks like they could schedule the labs so people in for fertility treatments and those who've already been successful aren't there at the same time!
