I'm still under the influence of the meds from this morning. I slept a lot today. Can you believe that someone STOLE one of my plants in my front yard this morning? I'm quite ticked, especially since this was a gift from my tenant, a unique flowering plant that I actually planted into the ground! AARRRGGGGH!
I think I'm going to put a sign in my yard that says: Please enjoy my garden with your eyes only.
Events at Genesis this morning. I was given some pain killers, muscle relaxant, an IV and something that made me extremely drowsy. The insertion of the IV needle was by far the worse thing that happened to me today. I went in hoping of more eggs this time, especially since I had a few more follicles. Unfortunately, even with 6 follicles, there were only 3 eggs. The other follicles were empty. The eggs were kept in media until 4pm today before their outer sheaths were removed for grading. After the eggs are graded, ICSI, is performed to inject sperm into each egg.
If the eggs are mature, fertilization will take place and cell division will occur. Genesis will call us tomorrow to tell us how many eggs were fertilized and when the embryos can be implanted back into me.
Feelings today: There was a part of me that was devastated when they told me there were only 3 eggs. What if none of them fertilize? The nurse brought tears to my eyes because she reminded us to not worry about the IVF outcome, but that the most important thing is how much we love each other.
We went to Cloud 9 Revolving Restaurant for dinner tonight. The view was great. Food was OK. Going to bed now.
