There are three follicles that have the potential of ovulating! God is answering our prayers!

My right ovary has one follicle that is 9mm. My left ovary has two follicles that are both 8mm. On Tuesday I am scheduled for another ultrasound and the follicles need to be at around 18mm in order for me to receive the hCG shot. The nurse told me the follicles usually grow 1-2mm per day (which would put those 3 follicles at around 18mm on Tuesday) so the nurse told me these follicles are right where they should be right now in this growth process.

I am confident this is all a result of the many prayers you have prayed on our behalf.

The hCG shot will induce ovulation making the 18mm follicles grow to 20-24mm which is where they need to be for ovulation to occur. Approximately 24-72 hours after given the hCG shot, I should ovulate the matured follicles. I learned today that I have to administer the hCG shot myself because it will need to be given at 9:00 P.M. for timing purposes. I am going to try to avoid having to do this by asking a nurse that I know to do it for me. :)
**Thank you, Julia, for saying you’ll give me the shot!

So as of today, God still has us on the road to insemination on Wednesday, May 28th!

Keep praying!
