More IF Stress. **update in comments**
The plan was to trigger tonight for ER Tuesday. My RE just called, not a nurse. My estrogen level is 7900. I haven't been on Menopur or Bravelle for two nights already. He wants me to coast again tonight and just do the lupron. Tomorrow morning I go in for bloodwork and ultrasound again. If my estrogen drops below 4000, 5000 at most, ER will be Wednesday. If it doesn't drop enough, he's going to discuss options. He said it SHOULD drop, but it never should have risen like this based on how low meds I have been on. Right now if I triggered, it would be guaranteed severe OHSS. I'm trying to take this in stride. But I am worried we're going to get pushed to a freeze all or worse cancelled.

I just hope they don't completely cancel. That would be so unfair.
FWIW, we ended up freezing all and doing the transfer later. I'm so, so glad that we did. I know waiting longer sucks, bad, but giving your hormones a chance to get back to normal can be a really good thing-- especially if you have even mild OHSS.

Estrogen dropped. From 7900 to 7812. Yea. He's coasting me one more night. ER will hopefully be on Thanksgiving. I really hope my number actually drops this time. They said it's not normal to coast for 2 days and only drop 88. Either way, Friday is the latest they'll do ER, otherwise we're cancelled.
Our families are sort of understanding that I won't be able to go to them on Thursday. I mean, they get it, but we're still getting somewhat of a guilt treatment. DH is disappointed with them some though. He (and I really) thought one of our families would offer to come and do Thanksgiving here so we can all be together. (His family is celebrating a few blocks away, mine 15 minutes away) Instead, DH said he may go to one of the houses and grab food for us to eat here together. I feel bad for being upset that they don't seem to get that I'm not really supposed to be out and about after anesthesia.

That really sucks about your families. I'm thinking about you and hoping so hard you can do the retrieval Thursday.
