It's apropos right? Easter was yesterday and the ironically fertile infertiles get to do egg retrieval on the one day per year that the joke is on everyone. Of course i like that!
There is that nervous excitement and tiny bit of dread pitted in the bottom of my stomach. I'm undoubtedly afraid that I won't have any eggs and that further more if I do that none will fertilize. These are not things I can control so naturally they are the things I fear. I slept well, woke up feeling ready but calm still. Once I was up and getting ready the nerves started setting in. We are en route to winter park now and I am very amped up on the inside.
Dr Riggall said that with as many large follicles it is highly unlikely that I wouldn't have any eggs, he is expecting quite a few. His bedside manner isn't as confident as Dr. Loy's. Dr Patel will be doing the egg retrieval. We've not met her yet but I'm excited to. Will post when I find out how many they collect.
This morning Chady and I are hugging in the kitchen and I just blurt out a call to God and the universe "please help there be lots of eggs. Please help this work." Chad says, "I don't have any eggs. I'm sorry." Goofball. Oh if we prayed to our spouses.
