I triggered at midnight last night.
I'm a mess right now. It has been mentioned by two separate people at the clinic now that I might not transfer. Sure, they'll retreive and fertilize but they are concerned about OHSS. The course of action if the concern is too great is to freeze, take a couple of months off and then do an FET. All day yesterday, and all day today, I have not thought about anything else. I can't wait a couple of months. This has to happen now. I will tell everyone I am pregnant at Christmas and I will have a June/July baby. My friend J and I will spend our summer on maternity leave together.
Retreival is tomorrow, I guess I'll know (hopefully) by Sunday whether this is happening on Monday or not.
I need to know now. I am a planner. I need to know the criteria on which this decision will be made. I need to know if I will have any input in this decision. I need to know if I will spend the next few weeks (or months) walking around in a depressed, incoherent state or if I will be fantasizing about seeing two lines on a peestick in 10 days.
My left ovary hurts.

Suck. I am so sorry about that. That just f*cking sucks.
ReplyDeleteBut I know what you mean about timing. I can't help but look at EDDs myself, were this cycle to go forward in the way that I want it to. I am supposed to have a June baby (or early June twins, if I am allowing myself that kind of greed, I guess). I would be incensed if I had to wait even longer.
Of course, I am waiting right now to hear about whether or not I have even progressed enough that I'll make it to retrieval. The follicles looked okay to me this morning, but I'm not even sure I know what that means anymore. I am a planner, too, and this whole process might as well be designed to send planner-types into apoplectic fits.
Wishing you peace as you wait for your verdict... (and sorry about the left ovary...)
