We flew from Austin on Thursday, 6 September 2012. We have connecting flight from Baltimore to LGA, NY. Due to weather issues, our flight delayed almost 5 hours. We only arrived at LGA around 11:30pm and drove from there to Albany. It took us 3 hours. By the time we checked in, it already 3:30am. Both of us really exhausted. We slept until 1pm the next day! Good thing we arrived one day earlier so we had a resting day. The part that really hard is to find a place for me to do my trigger shot exactly at 8:00pm. Luckily we still at the ground in the waiting area. Both of us found a secluded area behind a door and did all the mixing and injections. The timing for trigger really critical. If the Dr. said 8pm, you have to do it at 8pm. Not earlier, not later. Trigger shot is the last injection before the eggs retrieval to mature the eggs.
On 8 September 2012 was my retrieval day. We were at the clinic around 6:45am. Very early. No one actually there except the nurse. It is Saturday also. Kevin went back to the hotel with his collection cup. Eventhough they have nice room for that purposes, Kevin really not comfortable doing it at a different place rather than the room.
The nurse called me in around 7:00 am! Prep me and prepared me for the procedure. The nurses were hilarious! There were two of them, when they knew I came from Texas, the sang a cowboy song and I cannot stop laughing. Kevin still not ready, so they said they have to proceed. It only took them 20 minutes. Overall, they retrieved 6 eggs (more 1 than last one). I am praying this time I have quality eggs.
