Finally getting this party started

I am happy to say that we officially started our IVF cycle tonight. 

I went in for monitoring this morning and I had 8 small follies on each ovary for a total of 16.  I know it doesn't mean anything yet, but I'll take it.  Once I got the call that my bloodwork tests came back good, I got my instructions.  I was told to lower my Lupron injections from 20 units to 10 units and start my Follistim injections at 225 units.  Mr. Lovey Pants starts his Doryx (antibiotics) tomorrow.  I go back for more monitoring Sunday morning and we take it from there.

I did tonight's injections, so I guess it is safe to say that I am in my IVF cycle.  GULP!  I am still in disbelief that it has come to this, but what kind of mother would I be if I didn't fight for my children, whether here on this Earth or not?  I just pray that I am not fighting a losing battle.
