Two down

I made it through the second retrieval surgery today—with a 14-day injection window—and came out even better than last time. I woke up without any of the grogginess and got the news that we got 9 eggs compared to last month's 6. While hard not to feel a little disappointed after my left ovary's follicular rally earlier this week, it's still a better starting number.

50 injections to get us to today's retrieval and celebratory coffee cocktails!

I'd like to celebrate but I'm busy bracing myself for the next cycle, wondering if my doctor's even going to approve said cycle, and tackling the rest of today's tasks. How quickly life-altering activities can become routine: our future child may be getting conceived in a quiet laboratory over in Oakland and here I am tackling some frivolous to-do list.
