Hello

A friend on my facebook said

doctor called.... Have three follicles! I guess we need to name the third little guy. Another ultrasound Friday morning.

What does this mean? I thought it meant that she had 3 babies implanted, but then I googled it and got confused!

Oh so does that mean she has three eggs about to pop open and then maybe get fertilised?

So maybe she is trying Clomid?

I am not close friends with her so it might be rude for me to ask her directly, but I would like to say something supportive and encouraging. I am worried that I will say the wrong thing though. That's why I think I will figure out where she is at on her journey without asking and then wish her luck.

You can never have too much luck!

with only 3 follicles I would say Clomid is what shes doing now, and if shes had to go on due to not ovulating it then I would imagine cxhances of triplets would be extremely slim.

Oh and your first sentence in that post is right, follicles rupture upon ovulation, releasing the egg to be fertilised.
