EPU Nightmare!

Had my EPU yesterday and woke up to find that the Dr had nicked a vein during the procedure and I had a fair amount of bleeding. Dr's and nurses are so casual about the whole thing.

I felt awful afterwards. They kept me in for like an hour longer than I should have and even then I begged G to ask them to let me go because I just wanted to lay down and go to sleep. When I got to the car I felt terrible and in the end we went back to G's parents, who live 10mins away because I couldn't stand the thought of having to sit up for 45mins to get home.

So after a 2 hour sleep, I felt good enough to go home. I am still a little uncomfortable, but a lot better than I was yesterday.

They ended up getting 12 eggs. Out of that 4 were immature, so they ICSI'ed 8 and from that 5 have fertilised. So we wait until tomorrow when we have our transfer at 10:30 to see if we are lucky enough to have any to freeze. Hopefully we have at least 2 to transfer.

Sounds like a good set of eggs, if not a good process. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the growth results.

That is so scary with the vein problem :( I didn't even realise that can happen. Hold strong and hopefully you are healing fast.
