IUI #2

We are scheduled for IUI #2 on Friday morning at 9:15!
My lining is still a little thin (it's at .5, and it needs to be at .8), but hopefully it will have thickened by Friday. I have one follicle on my right side that is pretty big. We thought it might be a cyst at first since it was the only one there and it was so big. You know how well I grow cysts! Based on my estrogen levels though, it's just a very mature follicle. I guess this one follicle has been hogging all the medicines for itself! It measured at over 2 cm today, and they consider a follicle to be mature at 1.7 cm. I'm very thankful to have this one big and healthy follicle! I am getting my HCG (trigger) shot tonight, and then we'll go in Friday morning for the IUI.
On a side note, thank you for all your prayers. I believe, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that God hears and answers prayers, and I truly believe that God will answer these prayers; it's a matter of time. Just to know that we are daily lifted up in prayer means more to both of us than words could ever express. We are very blessed!
