I got to the clinic and went in to see the other doctor as my doctor doesn’t work on Monday’s. While there, I asked her about using 3 embryo’s and she said that although it is common for women my age to have 3 embryo’s transferred, it might not be practical in my case as I previously attained a pregnancy with 2 embryo’s. She said that there is a 5% chance of triplets being conceived, which is still a significant chance… so they may not like that option.

For my part, if the choice is between having 3 babies and having no baby, then I’ll take triplets… I just don’t want to!  But twins would be nice… I really want two children, and this process is very expensive, and I don’t know how much money I will have left after I have a child. Oh well, I guess I’ll discuss further with my doctor on Wednesday morning.

The scan showed that I have 4 follicles in my left ovary and 1, maybe 2 in my right ovary – but that will depend on if it is there, and if they can get to it during the operation. Looks like I’m exactly where I was last time.

I had a call from my anaesthetist’s office this afternoon, who will be doing my egg retrieval operation on Wednesday. She informed me that I needed to pay upfront, and that the anaesthetist is very tall, and very nice haha. I wonder what the reason for telling me that was. In any case, his fee is slightly less than it cost me last time, so that’s something finally going my way on the financial front.

Tonight I had to have my trigger injection at 10pm. I got a bit nervous about missing the time that I injected 10 minutes early before I realised the time! Last time I had the trigger injection, I was given Ovidrel, with a follow up injection of Pregnyl. This time, I was given Pregnyl as my trigger injection, so I must remember to ask why I didn’t get the Ovidrel this time.
