I Hope They Got Them All

I'm pretty sure they did.  CB and I got up bright and early for the ER this morning.  After braving crazy icy roads, I was escorted to the "IVF Suite"  oh la la and given a cap, gown, robe and booties.  We waited around for a minute, met with the doctor and the nurse anethestist and then I said goodbye to CB.  He went off to read magazines and I went into the procedure room.  I didn't look around too much because it all looked pretty freaky.

The drugs guy put in my IV and started telling me about this antitrust case he was involved in.  I didn't really get to hear the rest of the story before passing out.  The next thing I remembered was the nurse calling my name and waking me up.  Oh and telling me that we got TWENTY SIX eggs.  Holy crap - no wonder I was so uncomfortable.

I spent the rest of the day sleeping, working and watching television.  I feel like I could back to sleep.  I'm a bit crampy and very bloated, but I think I actually feel better than I did this time yesterday.

So now, please, let's have ONE (or maybe 2) of those 26 eggs turn into a happy and implantable embryo.
