I'm taking the HCG trigger tonight, at 11:00. Retrieval is set for 9 am Saturday. No food or drink after midnight Friday. Jeez.....it's like I'm a fucking Gremlin. Oh, wait....I guess I am-considering that instead of dousing me with water in order to multiply, I'm going to have 10,000 IU of Novarel injected into my ass, and then have them sucked out of my body with a big-ass needle. I'll bet Chris Columbus didn't think of THAT scenario when he wrote the movie-and he's lucky as hell that if he did, PG-13 ratings wouldn't exist for like six more years.
In other words, thank GOD for conscious sedation-that's all I've got to say about THAT!
I was really expecting to stim one more day, because at today's wanding most of my follicles (about 20 that were measurable) were at 13-14 mm, with the largest being between 15-17mm. Nurse Blondie said that she was a little surprised, but that all four doctors in the practice looked at the numbers and thought that it was good enough to trigger.
So not ready for this, but it's too late-this is for realz now!

Yeah trigger and retieval and TRANSFER! Keeping all fingers and toes crosses for you!!!
At least you get sedation! I had 26 eggs retrieved and just a shot of medicine to ease the pain... (yeah right, they were running late so it had wore off by the time it was my turn)!
GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!! :) I hope you get lots of eggs, tons of fertilized embryos and some awesome babies to transfer!
So Happy for you. Now y'all out there lets keep on praying for a happy ending :) I have a great feeling bout this one..

I just stumbled upon your blog today and I am glad I did! I am looking forward to following your journey and I hope you are successful. It is so comforting to find other people who are on the same journey as I am to parenthood through assisted reproduction :)
