2/5/2017 0 Comments IVF TRIGGER SHOT day!So this morning's visit to the fertility clinic went well - I'm ready to go! Which comes with a massive bonus - I only had one more shot to do today, my trigger shot. The trigger shot tells your body to ovulate. So instead of three needles, I just had the one. And it wasn't a bad one, didn't hurt at all. It can be so intimidating, looking at boxes and boxes of meds. And tonight we got to the bottom of the boxes.
Here are my numbers, If you're into that sort of thing: I have at least 15 mature follicles and at least 10 eggs. I am counting on more eggs (like, 12?) for retrieval day, but 10 is okay too. Next steps: tomorrow, do nothing. Next day, wake up at 6am, take an antibiotic and then head to the hospital for retrieval. We'll then talk to our doctor about how many we want to fertilize with J's sperm and how many we want to use our donor sperm with. I'm not sure about that, it really depends on how J's sperm does when we thaw it. (Unfreeze it?) I really, really, really want to have one to transfer (that works) and one for later so I don't have to go through this process again! It was pretty crazy. I don't know how many needles I've had over the past two weeks, but it's been a LOT of needles. I didn't enjoy that part. But here we are, so close to the end and so close to having a pregnancy. We are so full of hope.
