I had my second ultrasound today. I have 6 follicles over 10 (3 on the left and 3 on the right). They are all between 13 and 15mm. I have 1 or 2 follicles under 10. My RE said to come back on Sunday for another ultrasound and blood work and that he anticipates I will be directed to trigger Sunday night and come back on Tuesday for the retrieval.
Not sure how I feel about this. A part of me is worried 6 isn't enough, especially when I hear stories of people having 10 or 16 and especially when I hear that such a small percentage can fertilize sometimes and then less that develop to embryos and blastocysts. I was hoping to have enough to both implant and then freeze so that I have options for having children in the future and can use younger eggs. (I'm always thinking further in advance.)
I don't know, maybe I'm just worrying too much and should be happy I have 6 when some women end up with even less. We'll see what Sunday's story brings.
