It’s been a while since my last posting, but things are starting to heat up with IVF #2.
I had my egg retrieval today, Wednesday, November 4th. Everything went really well and they were able to retrieve 15 eggs! I am in total shock! They actually got 15 eggs last time too, but my medicine protocol was totally different this time so I was expecting half of that. The protocol called for a "slow and steady" path to retrieval, so I'm really happy with the outcome. Of course cautiously optimistic for now, but starting with 15 good eggs gives me hope!
After the retrieval, I actually had a pretty rough time with pain (much worse than last time), so I was all looped up on pain killers for most of the day. Haha! Started feeling much, much better by mid-afternoon, thank God!
Now, the waiting begins! Hoping for good maturity and fertilization report tomorrow AM. Fingers crossed!!!!!
