hi there,
i just got back from my u/s and BW and i only have 5 follicles. 3 on the left and 2 on the right. Only 1 less than 10. I'm really sad and confused. I can't believe i only have 5. the nurse said to me "i don't know why you have so few. you're not THAT old." thanks. sometimes they just don't think...i wanted to hear something positive other than that.
I went to acupuncture and i am going again today and then 2 more times next week. i was really excited to do this ultrasound, i was expecting so much more. i've been on gonal now for 6 days. 300ml twice a day and this is what i get? i just can't believe it.
i'm so sad that this cycle won't work. i can't even be alone with my thoughts anymore because i feel like i'm going off the deep end.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Try to stay positive, and keep going to your acu. treatments. Are you going for acu. immediately before and after ET? The studies I read said that that's when it had the greatest impact.
Good luck - baby dust to you!
But don't feel down. I had 9 follicles the day I did the trigger shot (after 9 days of stim meds) and when I went in for ER there were 19. Sometimes they are just slow to catch up.
I am praying it all works out for you!
