Bad News

Well I don't think I can take much more bad news at this point. Yesterday I went in for an u/s and bloodwork. Dr said my lining looked great and he counted about 5 or 6 follicles. I asked him if that was good and he said yes. All they need is 6. Well I was waiting to get my message from the nurse on my voice mailbox but instead I had a voicemail on my cell phone from the Dr himself. I knew right away something was wrong. He wanted to cancel my cycle. He doesn't think my ovaries produced follicles to their fullest potential. He says I am young and I should've had much more. He tried talking me into canceling it but I just wouldn't give in. He told me to increase my Follistim dose from 150 to 225 units and come back on Sunday. I called today to ask the nurse if I should order more stims and she was looking at my notes and it seems as though I only have 2 dominate follicles. So all of that pinching, poking, and pricking was for nothing. They will probably convert my cycle to IUI if not cancel it all together. Happy Mother's Day to me, right?
