Egg Retreival



Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby.

Ain't nothing like the real thing. ~ Marvin Gaye

Today is the day.   Finally.  I'm slightly nervous but moreso ready for this to be over.  The trigger shot took me under. (Pro-tip: numb the area with an ice pack first) The shot itself stung more than the other medications and I've been drowsy for the past 36 hours.  Where before I felt bloating, with the trigger I feel pressure.  Not painful, but not comfortable.

Simple instructions - comfortable clothes, no eating or drinking starting at midnight last night, no chewing gum or smoking, and no perfumes.  The procedure should last 2-3 hours, and someone needs to give you a ride home and be with you 8 hours after.

I'll report back after!  Six weeks of my life in slo-mo.  All for my little egg babies.  Solidifies my decision that I'm not quite yet ready for the real thing.
