Well my lovely period arrived on Saturday on time like usual. So I went back to the RE's today. Got an ultrasound done to check how many baby follicles I have. I have 13 on my right ovary with a small cyst too (they aren't worried about the cyst sinces it's small) and I have 7 on my left so all is good there. They have given me 2 options for the cylce. For both options I will take Femara again CD5 - 7 and starting CD12 I will have to go in to get my follicles checked to see how they are progressing. Once they are big enough I will recieve an HCG trigger shot which will make my eggs release. The only thing we have to decide is if we want to add injectable meds into the mix too or just stick to the Femara. Not sure what to do. Dr said that the injectables will double our chances at pregnancy than just taking the Femara but our chance of multiples goes from 5% up to 20% with the injectables. I don't know which one out ways the other. I'd love to have a higher chance of pregnancy but is it worth the risk of multiples after what happened with Joshua? Nothing scares me more than losing another baby or babies. How do you make these decisions? I never thought it would have to come to this. Dave doesn't want to spend that kind of money with no quarentee it will work but I almost want to give it a shot because I'm I guess you can say desperate to get pregnant. So what to do what to do???? That is my ? of the day.
