We are home and the procedure went well. We got 11 (my lucky #) eggs!!! 🙂 We are excited and very pleased with that number. We should get the fertilization report sometime between 11:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. tomorrow (Wednesday) and then the day after that have a better idea exactly when the ET will be.
The worst part of the ER for me was not being able eat at all today until afterwards and getting the IV put in, but both were bearable. I don’t remember anything after they started the IV until I was back in the recovery room. I am feeling a lot of discomfort and cramping where they did the surgery, but all for a good cause! 🙂 I am allowed to take 2 Tylenol for pain every 4 hours or so. Bob and Sean are taking very good care of me and I plan to take it easy on the couch the rest of the day.
We did find out that we are to start the PIO shots tonight, which I for some reason didn’t think would happen until after the ET, but oh well! At least this way I have less time to wonder about what they will be like and we will be able to get the first one over with and hopefully get use to them over time.
Well, I am off to go rest some more on the couch. I will check back in if and when I have any updates and/or I am feeling better and more up to sitting at the computer longer. Thank you for all of your kinds words, thoughts, prayers and good wishes!
