Retrieval

Well egg retrieval #3 was today.  You would think that I would not be nervous but I still was, just a little.  Not about the procedure (because they give great drugs!) but nervous of the outcome.  I love all of the girls at the clinic and they are all so sweet to me but, honestly, I am tired of seeing them this way!  I made cookies last night to take my mind off of everything and I took them to the clinic this morning.  The cookies are called Just The Best Cookies and trust me....they are awesome!  You cannot eat just one.  And the dough is almost better than the cookies!  They loved them and really appreciated me bringing them.  If you are interested you can check out the recipe here.  

Anyway, they retrieved 19 eggs!  I was so happy about that.  I think I asked them about my eggs like 30 times because I kept forgetting.  I was not able to find out how many were mature before we left.  I just knew there were more follicles this time and I was right!  I’m feeling really positive....   

I am hurting pretty bad this time.  The doctor told me that I would have more pain and he told me the reason but I forgot.  I think it had something to do with having more follicles.  

Anyhoo.....I am going to take some pain meds, drift off into sweet sleep and dream about beautiful eggs meeting beautiful sperm and making beautiful embryos!!


By the way....I hope all this makes sense because my brain is foggy and the meds are kicking in!!!
