What A Week.......

Since I last posted I've spent a week in hospital with Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome and a pretty serious Pelvic Infection. I've been in agony as I have 11.5 lbs of loose fluid in my abdominal cavity.

so after an intensive course of IV antibiotics and 4 hourly pethidine injections everyday for a week, I am finally home. still in a lot of pain, but very very glad to be home.

The good news is we have 8 frozen blastocysts, one which was advanced in development and seven little miracles which just developped at the last minute.

So...for now, I am on bedrest, trying to keep on top of the pain. we will return to the clinic on Tuesday at which point they will decide whether they need to drain the fluid with a needle or leave it for another few days to see if it will leave the body naturally.
