Calling all RMA Ladies (1st page updates)

[DaisyQ]

So basically... ~5 weeks from now you can expect your transfer, if you have to freeze...

 

[Lindsay18]

Daisy - thanks so much! My nurse is amazing and tells me everything that I need to know, but I told her that I dont' want to know anything until I NEED to lol so she hasn't told me about that part until it is definite. It's good to know though. I'm really ok with it either way - not that I have much of a choice if I have OHSS or am too at-risk.

 

[DaisyQ]

No problem!

 

[jchic]

Lindsay - who is your nurse?

 

[Lindsay18]

Lindsay - who is your nurse?

Christine Rose - I go to RMA in Somerset, primarily. You?

 

[jchic]

Mine is Adrienne. I go to Morristown.

 

[Lindsay18]

Mine is Adrienne. I go to Morristown.

Oh ok! I went to Morristown this past Saturday for monitoring since Somerset isn't open on Saturdays. I loved the facility! Not far from me either. That's where I'll be going for the retrieval, obviously so I'm glad that I went once previously before that.

 

[Lindsay18]

YAY! Nurse just called me - I am triggering tonight and retrieval is on Friday Exciting

 

[DaisyQ]

That's great! Very exciting!

 

[jchic]

WOOHOO! Retrieval Friday!

 

[DaisyQ]

Lindsay, thinking of you today. Good luck!

 

[jchic]

Good luck!!!!

 

[Lindsay18]

Thank you so much Daisy and Jchic!!! I'm home and recovering
Happy to say they retrieved 21 eggs!
Relaxing with a heating pad and drinking lots of water!

 

[jchic]

WOW! Lindsay that is soooo great! How was the retrieval? Are you in pain? Drink LOADS of water. Did they tell you to do anything else (drink, eat, etc)?

 

[Lindsay18]

Retrieval was fine. Completely knocked out so didn't feel anything! Only took like 15 minutes. Just took a little while for me to get my bearings after and not be dizzy lol! They told me salty foods are important and lots and lots of water. I ate a sub as soon as I got home hahaha! I was starving. They gave me Tylenol with codeine to use. I just have some cramping- not Terrible. I'm using a heating pad which REALLY helps!!!

 

[jchic]

Ok good to know. Hopefully I am right behind you and Daisy too!

 

[Lindsay18]

Ok good to know. Hopefully I am right behind you and Daisy too!

Definitely! Keep me updated taking a nap now lol.

 

[DaisyQ]

So glad it went well. The heating pad is key! Feel better soon. You'll feel a lot better each day.

just had my saline sonogram and met with the anesthesiologist all is good to go now just to wait for my body to naturally ovulate so I can start Lupron which is an estimate of 8/24

 

[jchic]

YAY! Nice! Spoiled, are you going to be on a lupron flare protocol?
