10...10 perfect lucky eggs!

Fingers crossed that lots fertilise!! 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Procedure was not how I thought it would be- sedation wasn’t enough and I felt pretty much everything. It was awful and agony. But all over now and would do it all again for them little eggies 🙏🏼 what should I be eating in prep for implantation etc? Xx

Well done hun. Fingers crossed they all do well you got a good number.

Not sure what to eat to prepare but when you have, transfer get some MCD fries and eat pineapple core for 5 days. Not sure what the fries are for but Tugsgirl said it supposed to help and the bromelain in pineapple also pomegranate juice I think some ppl use.

Good luck lovely rest up.

Brazilian nuts are good, about 3 to 4 every day. Pineapple with core, pomegranate juice, egg, fresh fruits and vegetables. Eat your pineapple for 5 days start it on your transfer day. Hope it helps and you get your BFP 🤞🏻xx

I had the same experience in EC. I woke up in pain, so they gave me more sedation and then I woke again and they couldn't give me anymore. I was crying and couldn't breathe!! I could see the screen where they were taking the egss from. Yeh not a nice experience but would do it again if I had to lol. I ate pineapple like others said. Xx

10 is a great number - well done!!

Not so good the sedation didn’t work too well for you 😖 at least it’s done now.

I ate wallnuts and pineapple (both after transfer) pomegranate juice is also meant to be good xxx

Yes my egg collection was horrible too! I was screaming down the place lol. 15 eggs collected...11 fertilised but unfortunately only 1 good embie that didnt stick. About to start my second round and this time I've asked for an anethetist as I don't think o could handle that again unless heavy sedated. Best of luck with your embies! Xxx

Ah it’s just part of the fertility tests to check if a woman’s tubes are blocked. I had that and it was so painful but only lasted a minute or so. Worried for egg collection as I understand that it lasts for half an hour! Good luck for today 🤞

Most people slept through it though and have no idea, is rare to react the way I did apparently. I did have that sorry- a lap and dye, had a laparoscopy and they put dye through tubes to see if they’re blocked xx
