Retrieval Over!

Retrieval went smoothly and they got 24 eggs!  I am so excited and relieved that this part is over.  My estradiol went back up to over 7000, so I am glad we are freezing.  Dr. G did my retrieval, so I was glad to see him this morning.  I have no memory of even being wheeled out to to OR.  I did get nauseous and had to yack out the car door at a stop light, but other that that and I feel ok.  Should know something tomorrow morning about the fertilization report.  I'll keep you posted!

  2. 24! That is great news! Sounds like freezing was a good choice. With that many eggs and that E2, things could have been painful! Can't wait to hear the fert report! Rest up Mama :)

  4. 24 is amazing!!!!! I'm sorry you're not feeling well -- definitely give your body as much down time as it needs to recover. I kept trying to get back on my feet but I found there's no rushing the OHSS recovery. So enjoy taking it easy and letting your DH pamper you -- you deserve it!!!!!

  5. That is a great number. I would be over the moon if I got that many eggs. Relax and rest hope the OHSS stays under control.

  6. Congratulations! Another milestone crossed!

    24 eggs is FANTASTIC! As I recall, our donor had 28 and we ended up with 17 embryos - more than we would ever need in our lifetimes. I am telling you this because you should have quite a few embryos to freeze.

    Glad you made it up to RMNP - it certainly is beautiful up there.

    Looking forward to your report tomorrow!
