About Me

My hubby and I got married in October 2007. I am in my mid 20's and we have been TTC for 2+ years and we have been undiagnosed (unexplained infertility). We went through the journey of IVF and also I posted history of what we went through before that. Now we hope we have a sticky baby and it grows in mommy for 40 weeks and is a healthy baby.

Egg Retrieval Day!

Well today was the big day (well one of them anyhow!). The IV that I was so scared about was nothing at all, one try and done. I wasn't eally scared about the ER as I thought that the cyst drainage was a breeze without drugs...but I was wrong. I felt the drugs at first before the doc even got in there but they seemed to taper off quite quickly, I felt really good pinches and ugly pressures that pinched, then one ovary was done and onto th next. I even had a tear rolling down my cheek but he said he was almost done so I was looking forward to that. As soon as it was all over and done with I felt like I could have walked out of there but I had to stay in covert for an hour. The embryologist came over and told us many they retrieved and she said 19 were retrieved and 13 were mature, 3 were immature and the other 3 were inconclusive. Honestly I thought there would have been more from the OHSS risk and from the counts at the u/s's.
Glad that is off the list!!! Just waiting for the fertilization report!
