12 eggs retrieved

[try2020]

Hi lovelies, had my retrieval this morning, had 22 follicles, 15 of which were large and they got 12 eggs out. Some of my larger follicles were empty. Think this is going to be a long 24hrs before finding out how many mature/fertilized.... what a rollercoaster of emotions, I had a wee tearful moment just after it, don't know what it is but anything medical always hits me in the feels, I always bawl my way through 24hrs in A&E 😄 anyway home now. thanks to all who have helped me with advice 🧡

I know exactly what you mean! Had my call yesterday AM. Luckily they called pretty early so I could get on with my day. Let us know how you get on.

On another note, how are you feeling after EC? I was due to go back to work today but have signed off sick until next Wednesday (after 5 day transfer booked for Sunday) really wasnt expecting to feel so slammed tbh.

Hey Klady yeah I was wiped out yesterday and still feeling crampy today but haven't needed to take any pain relief yet. I was in the OHSS risk category, not that my numbers reflect that, so I expected to feel bad so took this whole week off. We are meant to be doing pgt-a so it's a freeze all cycle. I take my hats off to ladies who back up an ER with a transfer as I was thinking I don't know if I could do that. So it's definitely good that you have taken this time off! I hope you feel better soon and I have my fingers crossed for your transfer 🤞🧡

Got the call from the embryologist and out of the 12 eggs 11 were suitable for injection and 8 fertilized by ICSI, I have everything crossed for the next few days, thanks for your support ladies 🧡
