Egg Retrieval ✔️
This morning I had my egg retrieval! Everything went great. The doctor retrieved 42 follicles! The embryologist will be calling us tomorrow to let us know how many fertilized and she will call over the next couple days to let us know the status of them. I am home resting, and feeling ok. Just experiencing cramping.
My doc said I am at a higher risk for OHSS because I had so many follicles as well as a high estrogen count. So, I will be taking Cabergoline for 8 days and I am instructed to eat high protein and high salt diet for the next 10 days and to watch my weight as well.
We are praying for good news. 🙏🏻 I keep
Reminding myself it only takes one.
We are doing PGS, so we will take a month off and wait for the results. The transfer will most likely take place in October.
Best of luck to everyone else going thru IVF! It definitely isn't always easy but totally worth it!
Here is me getting prepped for the retrieval!
