WAYDTGKU: IVF: Gonal-F, Menopur, antibiotic, baby aspirin

R/R: I updated the IF thread, but sharing good news is fun! US showed some good growth in both ovaries, but the left was doing slightly better in size. Will get BW results later on. I wasn't sure what to expect so I took half a vacation day just in case. If the news was bad, I would have liked some time to collect myself before having to deal with people. Enjoying my morning off by frequenting the library. It is one of my favourite places to go downtown and the cafe is amazing.

@meri-mac - Yayy! So excited to hear that it's all going well so far!

Month/Cycle: 15

CD: 10

WAYDTGKU: IVF

R/R: Egg retrieval is tomorrow at 11:00am!! I am soooo nervous... Not for the procedure itself, because I've had multiple surgeries; but just to see how many eggs we get and the quality of them, and if they fertilize, etc. I'm so nervous that I messed the two triggers shots up somehow (wish they were just pre-filled syringes - I felt like I was back in high school chemistry class mixing vials and trying to follow all the directions correctly). I had bloodwork this morning to confirm that the triggers are working, so I'll just have to wait to hear from them. 

CS/Q: nope, temps are a hot mess because of all the meds.

CD: 8

WAYDTGKU: CM, OPK, PNV, CoQ10, D3, trying to be healthier, should probably drink more water, yadda yadda 

R/R: My work week is half over!! Just need to get through today and tomorrow. Then starts my super crazy November. I need to get a lot done the next two days because with so much travel and training in November I probably won't get much actual work completed. 

CS/Q:  nothing to see, not temping

@meri-mac So glad you had a good appointment! And a morning off to hang at the library!

@feather_heather oh wow! Tomorrow! That's so exciting, but understandably you are nervous. I'm sure you did everything correct with your trigger shots. 

meri-mac

@feather_heather Again WOOHOO! ER!!

@millpe November sounds fun/hectic. What is the training for?

millpe

@meri-mac I have to give our annual environmental refresher training in November, so I travel throughout my state to hold the different sessions. And them I'm also attending a workshop in New Orleans for 4 days in a couple weeks, and the weekend after Thanksgiving I'm going to San Diego for a review and exam for a certification in my field. So gone at least once a week for the next 5 weeks.

@millpe Good grief! Frequent flier miles?!
