i guess we are still a go...

So I went to the doctor today for another ultrasound in blood work. My husband was nice enough to work from home today and go with me since we only have one car now. We were both really concerned that because of the drop in the estrogen that we would have the same outcome as we did last time. The doctors didn't seem to understand our concerns and kept saying everything looks, fine everything looks fine. I was like, everything looked fine last time but the drop in estrogen left us with bad egg quality. The doctor looked over all my labs and said that the last blood work showed my lh dropped which would explain my drop in estrogen. He said this is not an egg quality issue. So on that note, we are a go for trigger tonight. When I did get a home I google to decrease in lh during ivf. I did not find much but what I did find was not encouraging. Oh well it's just another 15,000 dollars right??? ( For some reason I am not quite sure the doctors are ever going to understand how much money time and emotions we put in today- not to mention the physical part)

Thanks everyone for your kind comments and support over the last few days. I am sorry I haven't been commenting much but I have been super stressed out with the car accident, dealing with insurances, trying to get a rental, taking my car to the shop, and about to go for retrieval. I told my husband that maybe the car was wrecked for a reason ( we are waiting to see if it is completely totaled or not)- it's a sign we needed to get a new car before the babies come!

I tried to include a picture of us from the weekend- I am doing this from my phone so I have no idea if it will turn out. I hope everyone is having a good day!
