Re: IVF JOURNAL ... UPDATE 1/16 ER DAY :)
Posted by LIRascal
Ok so what was it like? Anesthesia, prep, etc. What did you wear or bring with you? i.e. to be comfortable afterwards etc? Did DH have to give his sample there or do his business at home? Do you get to watch the fert process?
I am sorry that I am asking so many questions! It's just that I am so anxious, I feel like I know nothing!
No worries! I wore sweatpants and a comfortable shirt. They brought DH in for his sample about 10 minutes before they brought me in to prep me. They took me in the back, gave me a gown and slippers and a robe. I got dressed and they had me sit and answer a bunch of questions like allergies, previous procedures, etc.
Then I spoke to my dr and the anesthesiologist. My DH came in the back and sat with me when he was done until they were ready to bring me in the OR.
I got in the OR, they had me take the robe off and sit on the bed with my legs up (resting on platforms they had on the bed). They gave me the IV and put the anesthesia in and thats the last I remember until I woke up. When I woke up I felt crampy but not horrible. They told me how many eggs they took and watched me for a while (I kept falling asleep and waking up every few minutes). When I was fully awake they wheeled me into recovery where they made me drink a lot of water and juice and had crackers there. DH waited with me until I was able to urinate and after that they let me get dressed and leave.
When I got home I was crampy and tired. I laid down all day and slept on and off. Today, Im at work. I feel bloated and slightly nauseous but Im fine and anxiously waiting for the fert report :)
You'll do great!!! Dont be nervous
