I Survived...

The Pregnyl trigger shot. It wasn't as painful as I thought it gonna be. There was a sting at the beginning just like the normal injection but the needle was in me for a slightly longer time. The leg was a little numb immediately after the injection. But once u walk it off it was kind of alright. That's all. Thanks to Juliah for preparing me mentally for it. It truly helps.

This was one of the first thing with regards to IVF that I am nervous about other than the number and quality of my egg follicles. SO after one final scan in the morning, with number of follicles being the same but a slight increase in the size. Currently I have a 19mm, 17.5mm, 17mm, and a 15mm. Others measurable ones are at 12.5mm, 12.5mm, 10.5mm and 9mm. They say they are probably looking at the first 3. Others not so sure. I will be very happy with whatever they can retrieved. Hopefully at least 5 are fertilised and I can transfer 2.

I am hoping the other follicles will catch up in size in the next 2 days. N hopefully they have sufficient mature eggs to fertilised. One obstacle down, another one to go on Friday (ER). I am still not sure when the ET will be but I will be very happy to have a successful ET and a healthy baby at the end of the whole procedure.

I am just gonna rest and take it easy the next few days. I will try to squeeze in an update as and when I am capable of doing so.

Till then, whoever are in the ER/ET stage or the 2WW, all teh best to all of you. May we get the positive outcome that we are looking for.

Till my next entry...
