Successful Egg Retreival - Here was my experience !

La

Hi everyone!

My egg retrieval was successful, I woke up sitting in a leather recliner chair and not remembering how I got to that chair.

I was super drowsy 💤 and out of it but remember thinking the head pad on my lower stomach felt incredibly soothing as my pelvic area was super crampy . I was trembling a lot, I guess this is a normal after effect of anesthesia.

The nurse checked in on me and provided me with a cup of water and some lays potato chips. She said they would release me after I could empty my bladder

First bathroom attempt did not work so they gave me more water. That one did the trick, and I had a successful pee! Lol

I was still super trembly but much more with it than when I originally woke up. The nurse went over instructions - they were pretty lengthy - I was not ready for that.

Thank god it was all typed up because there was no way I could remember all that! They escorted me outside when my husband arrived to pick me up. Now we are making a pit stop at a grocery store to buy salty foods, Gatorade, and some additional medications that were prescribed.

God is good! I’m so looking forward to relaxing on the couch 🛋 Hope this post is helpful to those wondering what egg retrieval is like 🥰

We are warriors ladies, we can do this because we are resilient 💪🏽 Thank you all for tagging along this journey with me-it may be an app- but I have felt the love and support all along ❤️🥰
