I forgot to mention in my post yesterday that I had an early morning appointment on both Monday and Tuesday this week. My appointment yesterday went very well; they counted 15 potential follicles measuring 12mm-15mm. Instructions for Monday night were to take Lupron and 2 units of Menopur, nixing the Bravelle. I got up early again this morning for another monitoring appointment and they counted the same 15 potential follicles, but this time they all measured 14-19mm today! That means- tonight was the night for the Trigger shot! I got all of my pre-retrieval instructions this morning and scheduled retrieval for 7am Thursday morning! I can't believe it's finally here. We are completely psyched.
However, in order to get to that point, we had to get through the big dog shot- the killer- the HcG trigger shot!! We were instructed to give the shot at 6:30pm sharp! And you know what? It was a whole lot of nothing. I mean, don't get me wrong, I knew it was there and that I was getting stabbed in the butt...but it didn't last very long and I had the best doctor in the world! M was so concerned about my comfort and he did an amazing job administering my most feared injection! One more big hurdle down...
Now we wait until Thursday. I am giddy with excitement...I can't even explain it!
