So yesterday i went for egg collection and like advised i cannot remember a thing about the procedure the staff were lovely thats about all i do remember oh and the cup of tea ide been craving since 6am in the morning.. it was litterally over and done with in an hour or so .... the nurse popped into the room once i was sorted and gave us the news that 7 EGGS had been collected i couldnt belive it and wasnt expecting that ... i thought it was a walk in he park untill i got home and BOOM projectile vomiting everywere ... a lovely side affect of the sedation .... ive never been that sick after a night out on the prosecco.... it was awfull .. 🙈 .... so off to bed i went resting my bloated sicky tummy woke up to a lovely phone call this morning of the embryologist all 7 EGGS have fertalized im in total shock ive already pinched myself to make sure im not dreaming i cant belive it me and DH are over the moon ...... i hope everyone is well ❤️...

I think it’s very important to have a sense of humour through all this or we would all go nuts so good on u!!

I feel surprisingly fine about it all and feel more relieved that I got this far than anything.

I will keep u informed and hope you get plenty rest over the weekend xx

Thankfully my husband is quite good at making me laugh even if I feel like I don’t want to so he keeps me amused 😂

That’s a very good way to look at it in stages as the whole process can seem very overwhelming.
