Infertility

Home from ER

ER was early this morning and six eggs collected. That does not seem like a great number to me since I hear of around a dozen on this board so much but the RE said it was good.

I feel suprisingly well.. just mild crampy, mild headache, loopy from sleep cocktail. My boobs are very sore but that started when I triggered.

We are looking at ET on Sunday or Tuesday, which for sure means bed rest over Thanksgiving. DH already offered to host at our house weeks ago and lots of people coming. I told him we should cancel but he insists he'll take care of E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G!

Any advice for next few days post ER? I feel like I should take it easy, use heating pad and am craving herbal tea but forgot to ask if I can have it.

I'm off to sleep now. Thanks for all your support. Big hugs and lots of baby dust to everyone!

Re: Home from ER

  • Numbers are not everything, six is still good, remember all you need is 1 to take....

    Rest now, drink herbal teas, mostly citrus based as they generally do not have other bits and bobs that we are told to avoid. Otherwise, send the DH to the market, buy some lemons and do the natural herbal tea!

    GL and rest !!

    Multiple ectopics, 2 failed IVF's
    IVF #1: Did not get to ET, embies all failed PGD (major chromosomal defects)
    IVF #2: We have 2 chromosomally perfect embies as a result of PGD (Boy/Girl) 1 failed the thaw (Girl) Transferred 1, yet ended as a c/p
    Thought it was the end of our TTC Journey 6/20/2012
    SHOCK BFP 9/28/2012: IT'S A BOY! and everything is normal !!!!!!

    Little A born 38w 2d on 05/23/13 and is a true miracle for this IF Vet!

  • Good job! I have been BFFs with my heating pad and was told to only drink gatorade and pediolite. I went for the gatorade as pediolite is G-R-O-S-S!!! 

    GL to you - I hope you get a great fert report!
