Ups and downs

So day 9 was a letdown and as we approached the weekend, I'm thinking that if it isn't going to work anyway, do I want to haul into the clinic on the weekend for no reason?  I called my nurse yesterday (day 10) to see if my levels continued to fall (results from the day 9 blood test) and she said that everything was fine.  She said that they often see a drop on day 7 and if there had been a problem they would have called me. I was so confused, but frankly I was more relieved than anything so I went with it.

Full of renewed optimism, we went for the day 11 ultrasound today and my lining is up to 4.7, and my levels are rising.  So that's good, right?  My nurse wasn't there today, but the same doctor was and he said that my estrogen is way lower than it should be.  What the hell??  I wish they could get their stories straight!!  My follicle on the left went from 1.4 to 1.3, but the one on the right went from 1.1 to 1.4, so things may still be on the up and up.

I'm hoping my lining has a great few days and by Monday, we're planning for insemination.  Alternatively, I hope that if it's over for this month, we know by Monday so we can just rest up for a few weeks and try again next month.  Either way, I just want to know!!
