Egg retrieval

Had er today we got 55 eggs, the doc did not want to fertilize all the eggs so he said they will freeze most of the eggs, we had to sign more consent forms hope that does not mean another bill for freezing already paid to freeze embryos. Not really any pain just feel empty you can tell ovaries are still a bit swollen it just feels weird, no follicles, the only pain I felt was when hubby was hitting the speed bumps, I came home ate took a really long nap, woke up took a percocet and my steriods and antibiotic. I am happy about the procedure I had a dream last night that I was in operating room and doc said I already ovulated. So now just waiting for the fert report tommorrow, was suppose to go to work tommorrow but I wll call in won't be able to concentrate no matter what the results are tommorrow.

I got my finger on the trigger...

Yeah I got the go ahead to trigger tonight, yesterdays egg count was 52 and e2 1890, today's count was 59 and e2 3011, so doc did not want to push me, had my preop with him today said he expects 30 or more eggs, said he will probably just take half of them and freeze right away and fertilize the rest, then the next hurdle will be making sure they are of good quality. I feel like a chicken that is sitting on eggs, when I walk I am hunched over, sometimes I get sharp pains, but when I down my water I feel better. The doc said he is not worried about OHSS because all my follies are big, he said OHSS usually happens when woman have a lot of small follicles, which means the follicle is mostly fluid, so after retrieval the fluid leaks in the body. I am also happy because my doc is on call this month for egg retrievals and egg transfers, the docs in his practice rotate each month who is responsible for er and et so I am happy that this is my docs month.

DAY SEVEN

I am now day seven into stimming, my e2 results on friday was 405, my e2 today was 756, my ultrasound showed 19 follicles 10 on the right and 9 on the left, biggest one on both sides a 12 and smallest was 10 but they are mostly 11. She said I also had alot of smaller ones too, the ultrasound shows that my right and left ovary are almost touching because of the follicles, she said I think I am bloated now, she said by er I will be very uncomfortable, I believe her I went shopping with my sister today and all the sudden my lower back just felt so heavy and then I was mad I was stuck in her little car where the sit would not lean back, I was so uncomfortable.

3rd day of stimming

Its day 3, and I now have the following symptoms bloated stomache, big boobs they just got bigger this afternoon, and still uncomfortable lower back, oh and I just feel so fatiqued, I wish I could go to bed right now but I am watching my nephew for my sister while she is at a Stevie Nicks concert, I wanted to go but I am just so tired and besides I promised myself no drinking don't want to kick myself later ...

stimming 2nd day

Well this is my second day of stimming, yesterday when I took my first shot in the morning, later in the afternoon my ovaries started to feel weird it is hard to describe they did not hurt. just a weird feeling expecially for me because I never feel anything from my ovaries, but another member in my buddy group on ff posted she felt the shot working to, so maybe it was not just wishful thinking, taking the shot is not hard, I was not scared about that part, the part I am scared of is taking the pio shot since there is the chance of hitting a nerve, that is what scares me. So in thirty minutes I will have day two down and 10 more days to go.

suppression check

well I finally had my suppression check, and everything is good can start sunday with lupron and follistim, doc says he is expecting me to be a good responder, lets hope so. lets hope the next two weeks go by fast, I can't wait to see how I will respond and how many eggs we get, i hope that they are good quality eggs.

the witch is here again hopefully she will be here only a week, I got my bill for what I owe for ivf its 2995.00 that 1,995 more than what I thought I would have to pay, I will call them tommorrow to make payment. I wish june 6th would get here already, I am anixous to get this party on the road.
