First time egg collection tomorrow at... - Fertility Network UK
First time egg collection tomorrow at 9am. Any tips/advice?
Hello, the actual procedure was fine as I was put to sleep so it was all over very quickly. The only tip I have is to get some trapped wind tablets. You may not need them, but I had awful trapped wind after and for a few days after, ironically I looked about six months pregnant. Sorry TMI, I did google it and apparently quite common something to do with how they do the procedure! Also drink lots of fluids. Good luck hope they get plenty of nice mature eggs.
Thanks, I will make sure I have some peppermint tea! I am no going to be put to sleep, just sedated apparently...
Good luck! You'll be fine. It's deep sedation so u r pretty much asleep and probably won't remember anything. X
You'll be fine, like the others said, its deep sedation, I too didn't remember anything, one minute awake chatting, the next it was all done and I was back in my room where my husband said I had been repeating myself for 15mins! X hope you get lots of eggs x
