See
that? It’s the finish line to this part of our journey. About 40
little pre-babies have been growing for about a week. Today, my
doctor said they are ready. So tonight we trigger with Lupron. I’ve
never been so thrilled to be getting just on injection.
Lupron
uses LH instead of HCG to trigger ovulation. I’m using this type to
help reduce the chance of OHSS. Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome is
where the ovaries can swell. If it becomes severe, I could end up in
the hospital. Dr. G is trying to prevent this. Drinks with
electrolytes and food with protein and salt have been known to help
decrease the odds.
Tomorrow,
I go in for more blood work to check to make sure the Lupron is doing
its job. Which makes Friday -- Egg Retrieval Day. It’s
here…...almost. Now to prepare for the days following ER.
