They retrieved 29 eggs!! Out of which 26 were mature and 13 fertilised via icsi. 8 survived to day 3 and......at this point I am so worried any of them would make it to freeze!
We used the Embryo scope, which is why the numbers are particularly low at the end of it this is because they can detect more abnormalities than they can without the embryo scope.
Just bits and bobs that I am keeping for my future self, & Possibly anyone else reading out there :) Thank you for dropping by.

Day of IVF/ICSI Egg retrieval!
We were at the clinic by 7.30, we payed off all IVF payments and then I was taken to theatre. They asked me my full name and date of birth like 100 times, they then set me up and seconds later I was asleep. When I woke up, they told me that I had 29 eggs retrieved. This cycle will be frozen and that they will call me tomorrow morning to let me know how many eggs were mature enough for fertilisation.
Pain wise, I had a little cramping nothing worse than period cramps, I had a little spotting. However, the pain got progressively more when I came home. I could barely walk. It was so painful especially when I needed to pee. It's comforting to know that the pain won't last forever. I just keep telling myself it's temporary and it will end. Oh and I took an antibiotic they also gave me some tablets to help lower my E2 Levels and they told me to book an appointment in two weeks time to discuss the frozen transfer

TRIGGER SHOT EXPERIENCE.
Last night, 9pm I triggered Buserelin. Triggering itself didn't hurt at all. However, 4am in the morning, I tried to turn in bed and the pain and heaviness woke me up. I felt so heavy in the abdominal area I don't know how to explain it but it was just heavy and sore. Went toilet for a wee, the pain lessened a little. However, I tried to lie down again and there it was. So I sat up. I keep having to waddle to the toilet and back. I've been drinking a lot of coconut water and water.. Some nuts and grapes only because that was available to me in the room. I didn't even want to try making my way down the stairs and in to the kitchen. I feel awful. I just want them out I can't wait until tomorrow.
