Can I eat before egg collection?

[Pozzag83]

Egg collection is booked for tomorrow morning at 10.30, I can’t remember what the nurse said!

Can anyone help please?

My clinic said I couldn’t eat for 6 hours beforehand. Good luck for tomorrow x

Oh thanks Claire. I’ve just read the notes I think I was panicking lol

Thanks for the well wishes

Mine was at 8:30am and I couldn’t eat from midnight, but I was under heavy sedation x

Sorry if this is too late but I was told no food after midnight and no water after 3am

My EC was at 10:20

Hi Pozzag. Glad you've read your notes and you know what to do beforehand. Hope all goes well and have a good rest afterwards. Make sure you drink plenty of water too. Good luck! Diane
