Bo, Start The Countdown 36 hrs, 35 hrs, 34, 33....
I have taken the HCG trigger shot!!!!
AND I have thought of a nickname for Hubby - he's gonna laugh when he see's this... I'm going to call him "Bo" from now on. LOL
Bo (Hubby) wasn't here to do the shot, he's still in DC. So, I got the smallest intramuscular needle I could find (a 25 gauge) and I gave it to myself in the leg.
OOOOOOH Boy - that was a long needle. *shivers* I survived... My leg aches a bit, but it is OK. :)
The egg retrieval is scheduled for 10 AM Monday morning - 36 hours from NOW!!!!! I am to arrive at the surgery center no later than 8:30 AM to be prepped for the procedure. *shiver, shiver*
Thank you to "Knock Me Up" for the reassurances about twilight anesthesia - that simple comment really did make me feel better. :) Wishing you had a blog, so I could read your story and return the support... Thanks chickie!

Oh, I'm so happy it helped. And, I'm totally impressed you were able to give yourself the IM injection. I don't think I could quite manage that one.
I do have a blog just didn't put in the link as I just assume it will attach w/my sign in -- I'm totally inept when it comes to computer stuff. Here is my link but you will have to copy and paste as I can't make it into a link (see inept with these new-fangled computer gadget thingamagiggies.)

Great news. I agree, you are so brave to have given yourself the shot in the leg! I'll get my chance to do an IM shot later this week I hope, but I still aiming for the butt!
I hope that things go well for you in your retrieval! Lots o' eggs!
Hey, our retrievals are only one hour apart. :) Good luck to you.
Will be crossing my fingers that all is good in the hood for Monday!!!
Exciting! Good luck with this cycle - and good job being so brave with the needle...yuck.
Crossing everything for you for tomorrow!
Best of luck for your egg retrieval and well done on giving yourself the injection!
