Lots to tell....

Well it has been an effin roller coaster the past 48 hours...

Our ET was on Thursday at 11am and was perfect....We transferred 2 beautiful embryos and froze 3 other perfect lil guys...

We came home for our 24 bed rest and a few hours later I was SLAMMED with terrible pain in my right ovary area...It was effin HELL. The pain led to vomiting and seriously, just agony. I got through the night and the next morning woke up feeling slightly better...then BAM! pain back again ..... Around 11am I could not take it anymore so off to the ER we went. The ER is about 10 mins away but that ride felt like it took 3 effin hours..I was hurting so bad. MAJOR props to the wifey for keeping her cool and getting us there! 

We had been on the phone w/ our RE a few times and we were getting advice that was USELESS. They recommend to take some tums....EFFIN TUMS FOR AGONY? I might as well eat a damn tic tac because it will have the same affect. 

So off we went...the ER staff were amazing....they hustled me back...got some strong narcotics in me which eased the pain...the day continued with pain coming back approx 30 mins after I was given the pain meds...my liver must of been pumping that shit through as it was not long lasting! The day also was filled with tests, blood work, more puking, more pain, trans-vag and regular u/s, a lot of waiting, more puking, more pain. 

The staff was great and made sure that all meds they were giving me would not affect our embryos. I am still praying nonstop that this round of IVF was not affected by this sickness? illness? not sure what to call it as they are not sure what exactly was going on.

I was admitted and stayed over night where as soon as we got settled in our room the pain meds took a turn for the worst and made me BEYOND ITCHY. Uncontrollably itchy. So a double dose of benadryl was given THANK GOD as that helped me get a few hours of snoozin last night. 

Once discharged this morning, we headed right to the RE for another u/s and to discuss an overview of what all occurred. He thinks I had a blood filled follicle left over from retrieval that was leaking into my ovary and uterus that eventually burst...Not 100% sure....He was an amazing help and offered some assurance that this did not affect the embryos...but I am still beyond worried...

I kept thinking to myself that this is all worth it for our soon to be present bambino and I still believe that even if this is not part of the "routine" IVF process - I would go through it again and again to have our lil bambino with us someday soon. 

Major deep breath needed and positive thoughts more than ever...
