1st egg retrieval experience
Had my very 1st ( and hopefully last) egg retrieval yesterday. They got 8 eggs which I am happy about. They had to pull one out from my stomach. Anyone ever had that happen before? I did so much research to prepare myself. And while I am glad I did I honestly felt pretty good. I had more or less straining cramps after. But honestly had worse period cramps over the years. I basically just had to find the right ways I could and couldn’t move. Took some extra strength Tylenol for mild discomfort. I was totally fine to eat after. I didn’t have any symptoms from the anesthesia. I did take a nap and just relaxed. Husband was a big help. The most discomfort I was in was last night with a full bladder and after I emptied it. I felt very strained going back to bed. But it went away. Now just waiting to see how many fertilized!
