Follicle Growth

Things have been going well (fingers crossed) since Thursday. I had another electro-stim acupuncture session on Friday which, hopefully, is bringing loads of blood to my reproductive bits.

On Friday, after 7 days of meds, I had the following follicles:

Right: 19, 16, 14.5, 10.5, 10.5, 9
Left: 14.5,12.5,10, 10

Today's ultrasound didn't look so great. A few new follicles joined the party and some follicles grew, but not much. Here are Saturday's results:

Right: 19.5, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12.5, 11.5
Left: 16, 14, 13, 11, 11, 9.5

When I asked the nurse about this, she said my previous ultrasounds had been done by a tech who usually measures "big." The tech I had today was certainly digging around and spending a significant amount of time measuring the follicles. My previous tech was very quick and not too intrusive. I don't know what to think. All I can do is wait until tomorrow's ultrasound and hope the follicles grow.
