Hey ladies! I just wanted to let you know that things went fine this morning. But, not without a bit of drama. Here's a run down of this morning. We wake up. All is fine. We leave 1 hour before we are supposed to even be there. It's roughly a 25 minute commute. So the minute we get on the interstate there was a major accident. And all 5 lanes are at a stand still. Even the HOV. What typically takes us 10 mintues took 1 hour. Dh was in a panic that his swimmers wouldn't last. Knowing that we would be late, I called my nurse and she assured me that we would be fine. Once we got on the beltway DH put the peddle to the metal and we made it there only 10 minutes late. The actual retrieval was a breeze. I was the second person in and I even left before the retrieval number 1. So I guess you are wondering how many we got??
We got 11 eggs and they said we may have more after they clear the equipment. I will get my fertilization report tomorrow. So, fingers crossed. DH took me to Panera for a bagle and coffee and now he is packing some of the boxes for me. I've got my pj's on and I think I'm going to go lay down for a bit. I will catch up with all of you later.

Katie - you also have to remember that a lot of women get reganant naturally and still have sex during implantation and the beginning of their pregancy and everything works out fine. I can see why our REs want to limit sex and "Os" but if it was that disrupting to an early pregnancy, I think we would know about it. So my point is that the hormones are messing with you but if you happen to have an "O" don't stress out about it! you should be fine are you going crazy yet on your 2WW? I am, one day I feel pregnant, the next I don't, then I do... my tummy is still huge and hard, not so many cramps today, in fact I feel pretty good. How are you? Does your RE tell you your first beta? or just second like mine?
Weezie--Thats houston traffic for you and 59 is the worst especially when it goes from 5-2 lanes. I am glad you feel good and 10 is great Rest up!!!
Rio--I am the same way I was crampy pain like things yesterday and then today nothing so far. My nipples were tendor yesterday and not so much today. I am going to ask tomorrow about the beta. Actually I may call b/c the Head nurse will be doing us in the morning when im there for BW.
So get this. I found out last night and DH wasnt putting the PIO needle in my butt all the way. "I did want to hurt you" REALLY I said!!! Its sopposed to so it goes in muscle. So hopfully it will be fine now that I realized it. I knew it was to short.
Hope the other ER's ET's are feeling well!!!

Katie - you are doing BW tomorrow morning? Ask your RE about the shots not going all the way in, I am sure you still absorbed a lot of it so it should be fine. Poor Dh! I am again tempted to POAS are you?
Well ladies heres my update. I have 20 follies and I trigger tonight. ER is scheduled for Thursday morning. Please say a prayer for me. I am kind of nervous. I want quality eggs and also I am high risk for OHSS.
Hey girls everything went great! Got 9 eggs ( just what I was hoping for!)
I came home ate some potatoes b/c I wanted to take my doxy, but before I could I threw up the potatoes! Guess I should stick to crackers, huh? I am feelin great now and think I will take a nap. Dh went straight to work and I will enjoy my bit of R&R.
Thanks all for the well wishes.
WTG Weezie, glad you finally made it to the RE. I bet that was a bit stressful!! 11 Woo-hoo! Good job.
