Of course you are not out yet. Not till you get the beta test. Hang in there I know its very stressful. I am in the 2ww as well. My torment ends on Tuesday.

My ob would not go to retrieval with fewer than 5 follicles.  A differen protocol can make a significant different (or a different dosage).  Having said that, I only had 4 embryos (from 6 follicles) and got bfp.  All you need is one good embryo.
Good luck!

I had ivf in 2010 and i now have a gorg baby boy, i only had two eggs good enough to use and they were very poor quality but the doc said its worth a try so i had both put back in me and they worked and i only have half a uterus so it was only prob a 30% chance if that, never give up hope. :)
sending tons of baby dust and please keep us informed xxx

Hi,

I started my stim shots 4 days ago and just had my ultrasound done. How many follicles did you have initially? I have 8 and I was told that numbers will increase as I continue stimulation(fingers crossed). But, remember it's not the quantity, it's the quality.
