First Ultrasound of Cycle 3

Sep 04, 2008

Everything looked great at today’s ultrasound. So we are on to cycle 3 (which is really cycle 2 since we never got to inseminate on cycle 1).

I received the schedule for Cycle 3 which I will post. This cycle will be the most aggressive yet as I am already starting Clomid today. I will also have double the amount of menopur (the drug that aids in multiple follicles growing) compared to last cycle. This just means instead of 1 vial per injection, it will be 2 vials.

Remember, this is all in the hopes that 2-3 follicles will actually mature to ovulation. This will increase our chance of pregnancy, but will also increase our chance of multiples.

I’ll also be posting specific prayer requests soon. We covet your prayers.
