Just did the Lupron trigger a little while ago and I’m very sick again. Pukey and miserable so I’m going to make this quick. My estrogen is out of control so they prescribed Cabergoline again. I wonder what would make my estrogen jump so steeply. Stupid me took the cabergoline early instead of right before bed so that’s making me very sick as well.
Retrieval is set for Wednesday at 8:30 am. I am ready to get these eggs outta me! Have to go back tomorrow to make sure the trigger worked. That’s 4 days in a row doing that trek. I. Am. Tired. I only took Wednesday off so hopefully that doesn’t come back to bite me. And I have to work on Saturday. It’s going to continue to be a rough week.
Thank you thank you so much everyone for following along and cheering us on. I’m very happy to not have to do this alone.
Emotional: Excited for anesthesia nap! Happy to be done. A little scared of the unknown.
Physical: Violent nausea and light sensitivity right now. I despise Lupron.
Food: i don’t know but there was chicken and eggs and a slim jim. I feel awful. Going to bed.

Good luck on Wednesday!! I’ll be hoping for a good outcome for you!

Best wishes for retrieval! And yeah, nothing like a good anesthesia nap for tiredness. The best part of this whole process, IMO. 🙂
Thank you! It definitely is the best part!
Good luck over the next for days! I’ll be thinking and praying for you!!
Thanks hun!! It went well!
Rooting for you!

Thanks babe! Everything went well!
Good luck! Hope you’ll feel better too! Wednesday is almost here 🙂
Thank you!!
Lots of luck! Xx
Thanks Nara!
Wooooo trigger time!!! Except for the fact it’s made you feel like poo, I’m sorry 😔 but it’s great you are ready to go! You know what you say about looking forward to anesthesia sleep I can totally relate to that even if it does sound a bit weird to some, I remember how tiring stimming is and all the early appointments, plus work. I can’t believe you are going back to work on Thursday! Take it easy dear and hoping the trigger did its thing on today’s scan 💪 thinking of you for retrieval and that you get lots of beautiful eggs 🍀
Thank you very much, Dani! Everything went well. I’m doing really well, but that nap was everything I needed and more lol.
Congrats on getting this far. Good luck tomorrow with the retrieval and recovery. Wishing you the very best!!
Thank you!!
Best of luck for the retrieval! You’ll feel a lot better once it’s over. Hope you end up with some great embryos x
Thanks so much! Everything went great!
Wow only 75 of gonal-f!! I was on 400… And those follicles sound great! I wish my ovaries were that compliant!
That was just for 2 days of coasting at the end of the cycle. I think this was my 300iu of Gonal F cycle. I wish I could get away with 75. 🙂 But thank you :)!!
