March 7th came, 36 hours later, and we arrived
for our egg retrieval. I was a WRECK. Like a full on, ugly crying, hot mess. I
am super paranoid about anesthesia and waking up from it (lots of bad
experiences) but my sweet nurse assured me that all would be fine. I woke up
and was told they got three perfect, mature eggs. We would be getting a call
the next day to tell us how many fertilized! I cried I was so happy, I was
still thinking that at least we would have one frostie to save for later. Three
kids is really ok with me! I’ve wanted four but at least we won’t have to buy a
bigger car. (This is what goes through my head allll the time.) We went back to
the hotel and I rested and made phone calls and snuggled Jason. We got the call
the next day- we had two embryos that looked ok, and the third wasn’t quite
there. I prayed so hard that it would catch up to the others and we could save
it for later. It was a LONG two days until the transfer. We spent the time with
the Browns and the with one of Jason’s old companions from his mission. We got
to meet up with one of my ttc sisters as well- perfect timing that we both
happened to be in Utah at the same time! We also got to have dinner with my
family in Utah. I was so homesick the entire time we were there and it was so
so so so nice to spend some time with them.
