Infertility

Back From Egg Retrieval

Just got back from my first egg retrieval.  We got 17 eggs!  Yippee!  Now, hopefully we'll get a great fert report tomorrow!

I have to say the worst part of the whole thing was the damn IV in the top of my hand.  That hurt like crazy and continued to hurt until they took it out.  I'm definitely uncomfortable and sore, but nothing unbearable.  Sitting in the car sucked for the hour ride home.  lol.  Definitely moving a lot slower and feel very bloated, but everything went smoothly!

Thanks for all the luck, thoughts and prayers!  You girls are the BEST!!!

    Sorry about the IV, that's definitely something I'm not looking forward to.
