Sorry for the late update. After I got home from my appointment on Tuesday I just felt awful. These meds are making me feel just lousy. I am barely functioning to be honest. I ended up spending half the day in bed on Tuesday and was feeling better for a while yesterday but then ended up back in bed in the afternoon. I wanted to update my blog but couldn’t quite drag myself out of bed to do it.
When I went to my appointment on Tuesday my follicles weren’t ready yet. I know there was one that was measuring 17mm but that is all I remember now. I think the rest were around 13 or smaller. So they wanted me to keep doing the injections for a couple more days and come back on Thursday (today). Then hopefully I will have my retrieval on Saturday or Sunday.
I went in today. I have two big follicles but the rest were kind of borderline. She said he would probably have me take the trigger shot tonight! Yah! I just have to wait for my bloodwork to get back and the doctor to decide what I am doing. So now I am just waiting on the call. I will update when I hear from the nurse.
*Update*
Just wanted to update. The nurse called a little while ago. I am to take the trigger shot tonight at 10pm sharp. Then the retrieval is going to be on Saturday at 9:30am. I reserved a hotel room near the clinic for Friday night so I don’t have to worry about anything on Saturday morning. After the retrieval, they will call us on Sunday and let us know how many eggs were fertilized and when we will have the transfer. It should be on Monday but I will know more on Sunday. I will keep you guys posted.
