Baseline Appointment: Stims Day 1

And it Begins…

Wednesday, February 10

Today is finally the day! I went to my baseline appointment, and my ultrasound looked good. I was then given the complete rundown on how and when to do my injections. I did my 1st injection in the office, followed by an IV with lipids, which took about an hour or so.  The IV was to hydrate me and fill my body with essential fatty acids, which my Doctor says will help when it comes to implantation and avoiding miscarriage. I was also given more vitamins, baby aspirin, antibiotics, an Anti-inflammatory, and a blood sugar control pill. So I will be taking a lot of oral medication along with my injections. With my first injection of stims done, I  will continue with one injection of Gonal-F for the next four days, and then on Saturday, I will start including Ovadril every other day. As of right now, we anticipate having my egg retrieval either Saturday, February 20 or Monday, the 22nd. My next follow-up appointment is Monday.
