Eggly Update

So the verdict is in, egg collection is scheduled for Wednesday! So excitingly I have only one more injection to give myself, Ovidrel, and it has to be given at EXACTLY 10.15 tonight. It must help ready the eggs for collection. I am a bit excited. I'll be going first and then Mr G will be getting a syringe in his testicles to extract the secret sperm. Clearly this means that even though I have been injecting and having internal scans and am going to be partially sedated and have eggs collected "upwards" from my ovaries way, way upwards and still have to have the embryo put back inwards, upwards, it is much, much worse for my husband. Clearly.

Thankfully I love him lots and he is doing this for me, reluctantly, so I forgive him. And it should be a wee lesson to him not to let a surgeon take a scalpel to his freaking testicles in the first place! Hopefully we have a nice baby so he won't hold it against me for the rest of our lives.
