Have you noticed a young woman struting through downtown? It may be Mrs. Beans.
Mrs. Beans had a kick-ass weekend, her follies are large and in charge and as a result they have moved up our retrieval day by 48 hours! Pending results from the blood test, the trigger shot will be tonight and we will be back in on Wednesday morning. Woo-hoo! The RE's have been gushing over Mrs. Beans ovaries. It's almost embarrassing, we think they might have a pin-up calendar of Miss Righty in their office.
It has made for a hectic weekend as we were in for an ultrasound on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Mrs. Beans commented that it feels like the movie Groundhog's Day, where B
ill Murray keeps reliving the same day over and over. We (especially she) is not an early riser on the weekend, so two 6:30 am wake-up calls have made for some long days.We are also going to ask the doctor if we can have a final glass of wine in between the retrieval and the transfer. We haven't had a drink in 6 weeks and hopefully we (she) will be on the wagon for another 10 months! On the other hand, everything is going so well that we don't want to jinx anything. This is how our neurotic minds work.
I am psyching
myself up for the big shot tonight. I have taken over the Gonal/Repron shots so I am feeling confident. The only part that scares me is when I need to draw back a little to check for blood (to make sure that I didn't hit a vein or anything). However, I know that it goes much better when I am confident, quick, and efficient so I will be reviewing the videos this afternoon.Okay, thanks for all of the support, I have been keeping up with everyone, even if I have been slacking on the comments.
Wish us luck!

Good luck!
Yeah, that drawing back part squigs me out, too. Yay to huge ovaries and yay to moved-up retrievals! Good luck.
Rock on, power ovaries! Have fun with the shot tonight and I'll be checking in to see how Wednesday goes!
Good luck....
Best of luck!
I don't how much strutting Mrs. Beans would really be doing with fully loaded ovaries, but I wish you both lots of luck!
Amazing luck with the trigger shot and especially with the retrieval. No wine? Gosh, your clinic's strict... Mind you, I hardly ever drink, but I can't imagine what one glass of wine could do *before* the transfer...
Take it easy!
Have that last glass of wine, I say! Best of luck for trigger and retrieval. You've obviously been doing something right with those previous injections!
Bea
If she's strutting at this point in the game, she's a better woman than I. I felt like I was packing two large lead balloons under my hip bones and actually was asked a few times if I was limping because walking was so uncomfortable.
All the best to you and Mrs Beans.
Good luck <8')
What's that up in the sky? It's a bird...it's a plane...it's SuperOvary!
That's awesome! Good luck!
that's fantastic news frank!
and just so you know, DH never ever draws back on the syringe. and he's a physician.
you just go for it!
Good luck tomorrow! Hoping those super ovaries are nice and full
Pump it up tomorrow!! Maybe that isn't the best way to put it -- but I just wanted to say ROCK ON with tomorrow's appointment, dudes!! I'm so glad it's 'so far so good.' Lots of love!!!
Now it's Friday, and I'm wondering how your week went! Can't wait for the next update. Hope you had that glass of wine.
