Went for another ultrasound this afternoon and basically had good and bad news. The bad news was that I seem to have stalled out on follicular development. But it's strange because the nurse this morning found not four but SIX growing follicles. The bad part is that the largest one was still only a 14mm. However, she thinks that the nurse-in-training that took the ultrasound on Wednesday misjudged the size of the largest lead follicle and that she measured two follicles as one big one. So, the nurse this morning didn't want me to think I haven't progressed because she thinks that the eggs are still growing. It looks like I'll be back in the office on Sunday for yet another ultrasound. Which bugs me because I'm on CD14 today. Normally I ovluate on this day without a problem, but because I took these meds so late this month, everything is thrown off.
Now for the possibly-good news: It looks like my lining has gone up to 7.4mm. Finally, something to be optimistic about! From what I can remember, this is the thickest it's ever gotten so maybe that's a good sign. So, I'm still stuck with taking my yucky, messy little blue pills, but at least it looks like they're working. I had my E2 and LH tested again today so it'll be interesting to see if my E2 levels correspond with the thicker lining.
As for work, I got so little done today that I'm annoyed. I had my first lunch meeting with a Sales Rep and it lasted from 11:30am until 2:30pm. Yikes. Talk about wasting away an afternoon! Still, at this point everything is a learning experience, so I just have to roll with it. At least I got a lobster sandwich out of it all.

I think that IS good news. It seems like every month something is different for you . . .and honestly, that just give me renewed hope for you each month. Like, OK, so now her lining is better -- THIS is going to be IT!!
I'll be thinking of you on Sunday!! If things look good then, when would the next IUI be?
And I cracked up when I read your "at least I got a lobster sandwich out of it" comment! Sounds like the sales rep wasn't great company! heh-heh!
Yay for the lining! I am glad to hear a little good news :) It must be strange to go to a doctor's office on a Sunday. Hope you get more good news then!
