Day 6: All systems go

Went in this morning to have my follicles measured, and — whaddya know? — I have some. Four on the left, three on the right, to be precise. This is a big relief to me, as I'd feared my right ovary would stubbornly refuse to come to the party. (I can see why — the rest of me is none too eager to attend, either.)

The exam was done by the same doctor who did my final ultrasound on pregnancy #2, and who did the D&C on same. I wanted to thank her for her kindness throughout that whole nightmare, but couldn't bring myself to speak about it. Don't know if I thought I'd somehow tempt fate, or if I simply thought I couldn't do so without dissolving into an embarrasing blob of jean-clad jelly.
