In 13 hours I will be in the hospital for the egg retrieval. Nervous, excited.... yep. I'm more nervous to hear how the embryo's will do in the lab in the next couple of days and if we will have to make a decision on how many to put back in. Maybe there will only be one.
The intramuscular shot last night was no problem. Well, none for me. Bill had some issues and had to call the doc at 9:30pm last night, but it was all settled in a few minutes. The surprise came today when we had to do another IM injection because some bloodwork numbers came back too low.
It looks like I will have 5 more shots to do at home after the transfer. One tomorrow night and then 1 every 3 days. Fingers crossed that I will not need the PIO intramuscular injections every night..... for 2 months. YIKES. What's white and black and blue all over? Shelley!
The shot last night made me very bloated and made my boobs achy. They hurt like hell in the shower. I guess this medication mimics pregnancy so your body starts producing something to sustain a pregnancy.
I know alot of people are praying for us.... family, friends, strangers, on-line friends. I hope someone is listening. It is our about time that it is our turn.
I've lost track of my treats... People magazines, cookies, dark chocolate, candles. They have all been very nice, but there is really only one treat I want in the end.
