Clarification on the Follie Scan

Hey there.

I think I may have glossed over the process a bit in my previous post so I decided to clarify the follie scan protocol Dr. B. had me follow.

Basically I wanted to do the most aggressive protocol possible without having to actually have Hubby come in and submit a sample. I just want to try and make this as natural a process as possible for him.

Anywho, Dr. B. said that the best course of action would be to take Clomid from CD 3 to CD 7, then go in for a follie scan on CD 14. If the follies were present and in full effect, she'd administer a trigger shot then I would go home and boogie down with Hubby.

As it turned out, I ovulated early so no follies showed up on the scan today. Hubby & I had boogied anyway over the last week so there's a chance that we took care of business on our own. However, he was out of town for a couple of the days I felt like I was ovulating so I can't be sure. In any case, if we move on to a 2nd cycle with Clomid I will be using OPK's to make sure that I'm aware of when I ovulate. I will still schedule a follie scan but I may schedule it for sooner rather than later.

I hope that clears it up for everyone just now hearing my story.

Lastly, because I forgot to say this in my last post, please do the ABC's on your own blog and let me know so I can come by and read all about you, k? I love this stuff!!


Happy ICLW!!

Happy ICLW!

I hope that you and your hubby were able to catch those follies before it was too late! But it's great that you already have a plan for the next cycle.

Wishing you a speedy 2ww, and a BFP to follow!

Glad that you were able to "boogie down" despite the too-late follie scan. I ovulated way early on Clomid, too.

BTW, I love that you've got the New Moon trailer on the top of your blog. November can't come quickly enough!

Lots of sticky vibes and baby dust to you. I pray your 2ww flies by and arrives before you know it.
