Egg Retrieval Day

Our egg retrieval is scheduled for 8:30 am. Well we didnt know they are an hr behind us, so we got there way early. It was REALLY crowded. Dr GM told us before hand that March is a good month to get preggers, so maybe thats why there were soo many couples there.

We finaly get called back and the nurse tells us our balance to pay $2650.00 which included the anesthesia. Apparently Dr GM hadnt informed them that we didnt have to pay that amount. Which to me shows he is definitely not in it for the money. So we had to wait until they talked with him. They finally get everything settled, we go to pay with our debit card and it kept getting declined. Well we knew the money was in there, so we asked where an ATM was and went to go withdraw the money instead. That was a no go so we had to drive back into the US. The line was long or at least it seemed that way. We get up to the US Border Patrol, he looks at our military ID's and starts asking DH questions about the difference in colors. Its Green if youre retired. He then asked why we were there and as always, everyone seems to know Dr GM, so he send us on our way and also tells us where the nearest Bank Of America is. And wouldnt you know it, Les all of a sudden decides to drive the speed limit We get the money and head back over.

We get back to the docs office and from there, its smooth sailing until I wake up. I became really sick and ended up pucking and I wont even talk about the cramps. Lets just say I was in freaking tears. The nurse did give me pain medication but it still hurt like hell.

Anywho, of the 8 follies I had, the Dr was only able to retrieve 4 eggies. He said "they" looked perfect. Ahh, how can they tell if eggs look good? I will call tomorrow morning around 9 to get the fertilization report and will be told when my ET will be.


Oh and about the card getting declined: BOA thought fraudlent charges was being made and put a block on it.
