The blood work and the antral follicle count were today, after 3 reschedules. Now for those of you who do not know, (which I assume is most of you), an antral follicle count is a predictor of the "babies in waiting" follicles who may or may not become an egg to ovulate. My previous counts had been in the teens, and this time we had a count of 8. WHAT???? Panic set in and I thought, have I aged that much? Did all my eggs get used while I was on Clomid?? Dr. Amy says that this was not the case and we should be fine, my ovaries were just a little "quiet" this month. QUIET, for those of you who know me- I do not do quiet well. We decided that since my hormone levels were perfect, even better than before (thanks Jen), we would go forth and try to populate!
Phew, another hurdle cleared; but this is no sprint, it is a marathon!
