Egg Collection Day

Barely no sleep last night.

Just what you need before a procedure.

I'm definitely feeling better - now that's the end of the day - after way to many drugs that were given me.

It's amazing how drugs make you feel. The egg extraction today was done under sedation, so I was aware of the whole process although I kinda only remember half of it. It's weird! Took around 20 minutes to empty the 20 something follicles and we had a surprising 19 eggs out. M went to do his own contribute for the process whilst I was in theatre. - As he said, he was taking one for the team.
I was completely spaced out up til the end of it that started feeling the last couple of aspirations. Don't really know how I've managed to stand up and sit on the wheelchair but I certainly did. M was waiting for me in the recovery room very patiently.


A glass of water, a hot chocolate and 3 biscuits later I was out the door on my way home. Fell asleep on the car and again on the sofa when I got home.

Oh thank goodness for the drugs! 

Not feeling as bloated but not tolerating huge amounts of food or drink in one go as still feeling slightly sick. Also peeing small amounts at a time, but I'm sure it will go back to normal soon.
All fun and games when you want kids, hey! They've been a handful already and I haven't even met them.

Now after all this huge adventure, we'll have 5 months ahead of a tiny bit worse scenario. Can't wait! - Not!
Roll on next Monday.

Tomorrow we will be told how many eggs were fertilised in the end, but now I'm believing more that there will be a chance of us being parents one day 💗

Don't stop believing!
