PARINTS emailed me! My estradiol went up to 108.4. Granted it's not high enough to show I'm ready for my IUI but it shows my follicles are responding to the clomid again. I was hoping for a higher number to indicate a least 2 follicles but levels can jump really quick as the follicles are growing. I read estradiol doubles like betas do and since I dont ovulate til almost cd 20, hopefully that means I have a couple follicles about 5 days from fertilization! Guess we'll find out tonight when we take a peek at my ovaries!

COME ON TWINS!!! MOMMA'S COUNTING ON YOU!!!

Just watch! I'll have to have my IUI on Saturday...the same day I'm supposed to deliver that birthday cake! lol

Tara, I think that preggers announcement idea is a really cool idea. Especially the timing, having everyone present. I say go for it!

Hey, is it true that I can't eat seafood, shell fish?????

You can eat seafood and shellfish. Just nothing raw and nothing known to contain high levels of mercury. Just look up foods to avoid during pregnancy.

It's safe to eat things like tuna and tilapia but only 2 servings a week I believe. Like memphrika said...they'll have a list online of safe stuff. You can still have sushi as long as the fish in the roll is cooked :).

Thanks ladies. I love lobster and shrimp...gonna make sure to enjoy them both while on this cruise.

@baby magic- just make sure they are fully cooked :). I L-O-V-E Lobster!!!

OMG!!! OMG!! OMG!!! Okay I'm all cozy and ready for bed and so super ready to tell you all about my evening at Parints!!!
While dh hung out in the front with nephew, I went back for my u/s. I took a picture of myself before hand with a thumbs up to put in the video lol. The tech came in and did her thang (boy is she fast with that transvaginal wand!)

Ok...little background...in my past cycles, my cd15 u/s showed 1 egg about 15mm and only a couple times did I have 2 eggs but they werent too close in size so when I'd ovulate, only 1 egg would actually pop.
This time though my u/s showed....wait for it...
THREE EGGS!!!!!!!! Not ONE, Not TWO...but THREE!! My follicles are 15mm, 14mm, & 13mm. They are still slow cooking so I have to go back for a 3rd u/s on wednesday to see where they are at. Thank the lord she isnt charging me for the 3rd ultrasound! She said more than likely that I'll trigger on wednesday or thursday and depending on that...I'll get my IUI done on Friday or Saturday morning. What's awesome is because I'm doing the trigger, ALL viable eggs will be ovulated at one time so I'll have 3 eggies hatching very soon!!! LOL. I'm so excited!!!!

That is wonderful Tara! You will definitely get your twins with those numbers! I'm so excited for you! So what day will be O day?

Depends on when they have me trigger...either friday or saturday will be the iui!

Omg Tara....I'm so happy for you. That's great news...long time coming. Yahhhh!!!!!!!!!!

Well, our ship is in Key West today headed to Cozumel, Mexico so I won't be on again until Friday. Have a good week everyone.

That is awesome news Tara!
