All systems are go

Today I had a very unexpected surprise. My eggs grew 3mm overnight! (2mm is the normal growth rate per day) because of this rapid growth spurt my Dr has decided to do my egg retrieval early and is now on Saturday. The other good thing is my Dr can finally see my ovary in her ultrasound machine - what a relief! So today was all about getting me prepared for Saturday. I was sent to the Sonographer just to make sure that my egg sizes where correct. Then it was back to the clinic for a blood test and one last stimulation injection. I then got instructions for fasting etc. and was given my trigger injection to take back to the hotel. I need to give myself this injection at 11pm tonight to complete the growth of the eggs.

I have a break of all medication tomorrow and for the first day since arriving here I don't have to go to the clinic. Normally tomorrow would be a perfect day to spend by the pool especially seeing the weather has jumped to 39 degrees these past couple of days but I have to register myself at the FRRO (Foreigners Regional Registration Office) it's a requirement when travelling on a medical visa here. This will consist of a nearly 4 hour round trip, loads of paperwork and dealing with the Indian government.

While the hardest part of my journey will be these next 2 days at least it will all be finished. Well my part will be finished anyway. Dr K even agreed with me today that this cycle has proved that my body has said no more. So what will be, will have be.....

And on a final note, Cam arrives in less than an hour - woohoo!
