EC done - 20 eggs collected

So I've just got home from EC, for anyone who is worried about EC it's really not too bad, I don't remember anything about it. I was pretty emotional, they gave me pain killers and said I would feel light headed, I remember that but that's it.

A little uncomfortable now and a bit light headed, on the sofa for the rest of the day with OH at my beck and call, might have to milk this a little ;)

Had 20 eggs collected, fingers crossed and waiting for a call tomorrow

Hi KB11. My goodness the girl done good! That's a very good result. Make sure you rest well and drink plenty of water, which will help with any lightheaded feelings. Hope all goes well with fertilisation and transfer, and let's hope there are a few to freeze too! Thinking of you. Diane
