Well we are now in March and I am on the other side of my IVF Treatment...and I am happy to annouce that I am 8 weeks and 5 days pregnant. Phew what a relief.
Before I get to my pregnancy I will try to recap on my IVF journey.
The first scan was done on the Friday before Australia Day and I was terribly nervous, stressed about how my bpdy had responded to the injections. I remember I wasn't really feeling too much in the way of bloating and discomfort which is a common sign of a good response so I will really nervous, but deep down inside I thought it should all be OK.
So It was scan time, the scan reveal a wonderful response. I had about 16 Follicles Growing away at that stage and the Dr was very happy with that.
He told me to keep doing what I was doing that that he would like to see me on the Monday, Australia Day Public Holiday (No the man never sleeps) from there I would find out about a pick up day...Uh Oh the dreaded Egg Collection surgury.
So Australia Day came and I rocked up to my appointment, Mark had Harry (Who was only a few days shy of starting Big School for the first time, in the park across the street from the Clinic. I was pleasantly surprised to See Dr. S in his Boardies and T-Shirt and the Nurse in her jeans and shirt. I immediately relaxed. Given the predicament I was about to be in it was a nice little surprise.
So I stripped off and hopped up on the table with my Dignity on display and he handed me a note pad and said, as I call out numbers can you write them down for me? Which was fine. However it made my plan of transporting to a deserted Island a little difficult. The scan revealed I had 14 excellent Follicles growing away, so after I was dressed he sat me down and said. OK I will do your collection Surgury on Wednesday 28th Jan, the the Nurse and she will follow you through the instructions on what you need to do for now... GULP!!!
