Egg Retrieval Thursday!

I had my appointment this morning and I was a little disappointed, I had a lot of follicles but only two were mature. In order to go in to the ER I have to have at least four that are mature eggs, I have always had this problem so I kinda felt like they might cancel the cycle and make me start over but the nurse called this afternoon and said that the doctor wants me to continue my shots for tonight and then they will call me tomorrow with details for my ER on Thursday. The doctor thinks the follicles that I have on the border will cross over in the next couple days and give me more mature eggs to extract. So, we are getting super excited!! With Lexi I had 14 eggs and the 2nd time I had 17 so we are hoping that a lot mature and we get around the same number, the more we have to play with the better our chances! My mom reminded me after my appointment this morning that God only needs one egg he doesn't care about numbers like doctors...so thankful for a mamma who not only encourages me but encourages me in the Lord. Love you mom!

Lexi has been asking to listen to the John Waller song, "While I'm Waiting." So, I downloaded it on my phone and we play it every time we are in the car and she says she can't wait to have her baby sissy, her faith puts me to shame! I love the words to this song they resonate so deep within my soul, if you are waiting on God it's an awesome song to listen too! They actually have a version dedicated to infertility couples I posted below which of course I think is awesome!

So here we go, tonight is my last night of three shots then tomorrow Brad will give me my trigger shot that will release all my eggs and Thursday we will go in for the Egg Retrieval. In a couple weeks I could be pregnant, so close yet so far away! Brad got me this awesome phone case because he is the best husband ever and because he knows I will need the reminder over and over these next few weeks of craziness!
