A-OK- and away we go

The nurse called at 445pm and said immediately, "Sorry I am calling so late..." so that was nice. My estrogen level has decreased enough and we've been given the green light to go forward. Hurrah!
I was a bit worried, since my RE had told me, months ago, that the miscarriage, and barely lowering hcg meant I was "hypo-estrogenic", I was wondering if I'd just continue to have excess estrogen. I am relieved it has gotten to an ok level.

More tomorrow. Thanks for checking in, and your kind words.
