retrieval

So today was our egg retrieval.....16 eggs were retrieved!! Wow this is such a great number. Tomorrow morning I will know around 10 how many fertilized. If we had 10 that fertilized that would be awesome! We have been so blessed and i cant help but believe that this will be successful! We are coming to pray for good results :) i havent really had a lot of pain just pressure and headachy. Im also close to hyperstimulating so i have to take an extra pill to try to lower my estrogen level for 30 days. Things are good though so ill update tomorrow plz cont to keep us in ur prayers. We love each and everyone of u!

heading back to Tulsa day 7

So Jeremys in the shower and im sitting in the chair and we are supposed to be leaving for Tulsa in 2 minutes......yeah that prob not gonna happen. I sure hope the day of retrival and transfer he moves a little faster. But today jeremys got two things working against him 1st hes not a morning person ever and 2nd this is the 2yr ann. Of Ben Jeremys best friend passing away so its a hard day.

Heres how im feeling right now:
Headachey
Really full/bloated
Little more tired than normal
My brains a little cloudy having probs consentrating

So nothing major. I can deal with all this. Last night i went to bed about 8 i was just so tired driving back and forth to tulsa then working is wearing me out and i knew we had to get up early so i went to bed early. Anyways i woke up about midnight hollared at jeremy and asked him if he was coming to bed who had fallen asleep in the chair and right now is still in the shower and its 6:03 anyways moving right along. I had woken up bc i had to pee. I guess i should add that to my list of s/e i have to pee a lot more and i know thats bc i have many growing follicles which hopefully have any growing maturing eggs inside them. So after i went to the bathroom i could not go back to sleep i just kept trying to reposition. It feels like i have a bowling bowl cut in half one half on my right side and the other on my left side. Saying i feel bloated doesnt even describe this. Im not complaining just commenting. :) so im really excited to see what they say today and if they have any idea when retrival will be im thinking end of next week. So ill update after our u\s and b\w.

day 5 results

So today i went for my day 5 ultrasound and bloodwork this is where i am right now. We have 13 follicles on the Left side and 8 follicles on the Right side. So 21 :) of course not all of these will mature and fertilize but its a great number. Also the want my uterus linning to measure 8-9cm and im already at a 6 so thats pretty awesome especially since i just had surgery on my uterus. So we are excited! We go back saturday for day 7 u/s and blood work and im excited bc jeremy will be there and see it all. Its really interesting! Oh yeah and my estrogen was 540 dont know if thats good but they said it was. So im not starting the 3rd injectin tomorrow ill prob start that one sunday. We go back monday as well and hopefully ill have a good idea after monday when retrival will be and then well know around when transfer will be.

Today was the first day i really got kinda gitty about everything. Its seems so close we can almost grab it. I want so much for this to be successful but i have to trust and know that in Gods timing. Up to this point ive done everything humanly possible now its time to trust God, my body, and doctor Pro and just dont worry about it anymore.

Its so humbling to know that ppl are praying for jeremy and i. Thank you to everyone who has been praying for us we def need it and appreciate it and cont to need it. We love yall!

injections start tomorrow

So tomorrow i start my follistim injections! WOW!! I can not even believe we are here at this point. In just a couple of weeks we will be at retrival and then in a few days following that transfer. Then we just wait!! Im so excited yet so nervous i want this to be successful so bad......

There are many exciting things happening right now. Of course the most excited our ivf cycle!! Following that we are moving......i know i know those of yall who know me think i must be addicted to moving by now lol no this is not the case we really had a house kinda drop into our laps. This will put us a little furture from the church but it will put me closer to work. Im really getting tired of driving so far also we will have the option to buy this house. :) its only 5 yrs old in a subdivision and it has a privacy fence in the back yard which im super excited about since hopefully we will be able to put a pool in the back money permitting! So for now thats it !

nausea should be my middle name

For those of yall who know me well you know that I am not a night person, by 9 im normally in bed and fast asleep in dream land so the fact the im blogging at 11:30 is not the norm for me. However, since surgery I can not sleep nor can I eat without getting sick either it comes right back up or runs out quickly! I know TMI!! Im so ready to feel better but I figure if I get preg that Ill have morning sickness or as i figure ill refer to it as all day sickness so I might as well just get used to this right?

Surgery went wel on tuesday it was kinda a weird experience I wasnt crazy about the hospital and some of the staff was rude while others went over and beyond to be helpful. I guess thats nothing new though. Once they got in they realized that it wasnt a polyp but a glob of mucus. Ok i totally believe in the power of prayer. The previous wed when i had the u/s with contrast i saw "it" attached to my uterus but once they got in there it was free floating in my uterus i firmly believe that God allowed to it be unattached! This is something i was really nervous about with my previous surgery i knew there was a chance that i could loose an ovary but i knew that we could still try since i would still have one but when they told me there was something wrong with my uterus it upset me bc i have to have my uterus to carry a child. Anyways everything went great minus the fact that i now have been bleeding for 3 weeks and cant get past the nausea. I called thursday and the nurse told me it could cont through the weekend so hopefully by tomorrow it will disapate.

I totally cant believe we are here. Wednesday i go for me baseline u\s and blood work then if everything looks good we start injections on sunday! Cant you believe it? I cant in one week we will start injections and be one step closer to our goal!!! Which is to bring home a healthy baby. I nervous yet so excited in the same breathe. Im also so thankful to be sharing this journy with Jeremy he is such a supportive person and im so blessed to have him.

For now its just Jeremy, me, and the pups
