So, I still feel pretty crappy. It's 2 days post retrieval and I just feel shitty.
I actually have no clue what day I'm transferring. I called yesterday like I was supposed to, I had to call back about 4 times and finally I'm told Thursday at 8am. I freaked. I panicked. Last time I had 4 blasts out of 6 fertilized eggs on day 5 and I am going in 2 days early?! The quality must be shit, wtf did I do wrong?! All these things go thru my mind. My heart sinks. I actually did things to increase quality and went "backwards". I'm at all loss. I calm down, text the doc to find out how assisted hatching works on a 3 day transfer bc I think we all assumed it would be a 5 day. I text him he tells me yes assisted hatching and that I have 7 embryos and a 5 day should be fine. So I'm legit completely confused. I have no idea wtf is going on. Who makes the first call? I have more embryos starting than I did last time, so I'm really confused. My husband will call today with someone who speaks Spanish (clinic is in Mexico, not all the staff speaks English). I just am like did they read the wrong line? Or are they just not dividing too well? Like idk. I'm scared, confused, just so lost. I just don't know what to process. Is a 3dt better than a 5dt? I thought the 5dt was better? Idk. I'm hoping my husband has better luck than I did. I know everything happens for a reason. Is the 3dt maybe bc two back to back 5dt failed? Idk. When I know, I'll update. We had quite the excitement last night. So, DH gives me my progesterone shot, we decide to try (by we I mean me bc of size) the needles from Sam's Club, well, needless to say, it was a retractable needle which we didn't know bc my DH didn't read the packaging. My husband saw it just spring and he can't see it anywhere and so he's like I think it's still in you. I start laughing hysterically, bc of course this would happen to me, I've had a rather shitty and confusing day (refer to above paragraph), so why not add onto it. We text my best friend who is a nurse she tells us to go to the er, call my parents and I'm hysterical laughing and trying to explain it to them. I get dressed in my pink tank top that I have on, and a pair of gray and neon blue under armour gym shorts DH had. Get ready, Still laughing, trying to figure out how to get into the car. DH then decides to try taking the needle apart, find the needle in there, all is well. Then reads the packaging. Never a dull moment in our household. So, it's been a few hours since and I feel horrible. The pain is insane, I don't remember it this bad, but then again, it was a few months ago.
In the interim, I did finally get my MTHFR results back.... I am heterozygous one copy. So I have to take special vitamins, and a lot of them. I'm glad this was finally caught honestly. And we are doing assisted hatching!! I'm so happy about this, you have no idea. So time will tell what happens, I'm hoping for a positive outcome this time. I am (im)patiently waiting for my time to get my eggs extracted. I can't believe we're here again. I just want this to be done with. I'm ready for this to finally move along faster. I can't wait to see how many they get and how many fertilize.
It will be freaking hysterical watching my husband do the walk of shame after giving his "deposit", that's probably my favorite part. The slight embarrassment. I laughed last time. Lucky for me, the lady next to me was also hysterical. This crowd doesn't seem to have a sense of humor. 😒 Tonight is my trigger shot. I'm so happy it's here, it's like the last leg of the race. It has to be at the exact time stated, so we'll be doing that in a couple hours 😬
Symptoms Feel lots of discomfort Slight cramping Bloated Almost there. Today was my scan, things are "good". I am set to trigger tomorrow night and then retrieval on Monday. I can't believer it's finally here 😬😬😬😬
Today I had to take 2 more vials of merional and the ganirelix, tomorrow ganirelix in the am and the trigger which is a different one than last time at 10pm, retrieval for 8am Monday. Which means we need to leave super early on Monday bc it's been super packed when we get there lately. I also asked about assisted hatching and he said sure, so I'll just remind him at retrieval/before I get my transfer date. This is a huge relief to me to have this done. I can't wait for it to be Monday so I can see what they get ☺️ I am hoping for an even number of embryos bc they transfer 2 at a time. Current Symptoms I do feel bloated Headaches Heaviness at times I do feel like it was more intense last time tho 😕 which does make me worry a bit about this being successful. I guess time will tell. I did realized today that my pregnancy test will likely be the day that my test scores come in, I'm hoping for all around good news 😊 New items are available now
Today, I had to mix my one shot, the other was pre filled thank god. It is so super duper nerve wrecking to have to mix your own. Honestly, I also really feel like a junkie at this point.
So, I did take both pups for their separate walks today. I know I said it yesterday, but this really is the last walk I can take the one on for a while. She did good overall, until we saw another 2 dogs - she sent nuts, she wants to play with them, but we cannot do that. Then my other one is such a dream to walk, but she also 6 and super all trained. I modified the weights a little more, so I did get another exercise in. Tomorrow I'll likely take the day off minus a walk perhaps, and Saturday and Sunday we plan to take the fur babies to a walking trail. Symptoms: I do feel a bit more pressure, I'm definitely having a harder time getting comfortable The headaches are increasing I'm exhausted Tomorrow is my next check in with the doc, we will likely find out when trigger and retrieval are. I'm definitely excited. I have a few special orders that I need to work on today, I'll likely post them up a tad later, one is a fertility anklet, one is a self love/bring love in bracelet. Today I had to take ganirelix along with my puregon. Boy did I forget how that one burned a little. I also forgot that those needles are on the dull side. I have these for a few more days. Tomorrow I take the merional and ganirelix.
So symptoms: I am starting to feel really bloated and lots of pressure I definitely have gained weight I had to modify exercise a bit further - due to feeling bloated I have pressure in my back I took both dogs for separate walks, I'm not sure if I'll be walking the one tomorrow, due to how much she pulls, I think it might be too much for me now, but we'll see how I feel in the morning. I can't wait to see what I'm told on Friday, I'm really excited because I finally feel like I'm moving forward again. I also need to really ask about assisted hatching and I'm still waiting on my mthfr blood test. 😕 I hope that comes in soon. So, looks good, I have 7-8 good follicles and he said I should had 7 and 6 (so 13) at the time of retrieval. I have to go back on Friday for further instructions. Continue with puregon then tomorrow begin the Orgalutran Thursday in lieu of puregon, merional.
It's getting closer and I can't wait!! |
