At 11pm tonight I'll have my 42nd belly shot (just counting this month). I'd like to say it's the last one I'll ever have, but that would only be the case if we saw a heartbeat in a few weeks AND didn't have any frozen embies. So I'll just say it's the last belly shot I'll have for at least a few weeks. It's the first time I've had a trigger shot that was subq. The nine trigger shots I've had thus far were IM (in the butt). This one is Ovidrel whereas the other 9 were hCG. We left the house a little before 8am, and Nadia slept almost the whole way there. She was awake during the 45 minutes we were at the hospital, and she cried part of the way home until she fell asleep again. My retrieval is set for 9am on Wednesday. We are to arrive at 8am so they can get the IV going etc. Paul's parents are going to come up and watch Nadia. We're supposed to be done around 1pm. Last time we left a lot later than that since I was throwing up for 5 hours and fainting every time I stood up. I was about to be admitted overnight, but I asked if I could be taken to the car by wheelchair. Please pray it will go more smoothly this time, but actually the most important prayer request is for the fertilization process on Wednesday. We want to hear a good report on Thursday that we have some embryos!!!
