Hi girls, I had my ER this morning, they got 26 eggs and 20 were mature so we're very pleased! I think letting us coast the last few days made a world of difference. They were pretty optimistic that we'd make it to a 5 day transfer, provided the OHSS stays away.
The procedure went well, my clinic uses conscious sedation which I think is akin to torture but I pushed them to give me the max dose of drugs and while it was super painful during the procedure, I feel a million times better than IVF 1 already, I can already tell my recovery time will be way less.
I'm all snuggled in now on the couch with a big bowl of hamburger soup, some homemade biscuits. If G had his way I would be strapped down to a desk while being forcefed gatorade but I have my limits!! I'm alternative gatorade and water. My RE also recommended miso soup so I'm thinking I'm going for a sushi lunch in the next couple of days!!
Re: Back from ER

We also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And HOPE does not dissappoint.
