tonight we trigger!

Today at work I got the call. The donor is ready to trigger. According to everyones best guess, there are between 10-15 mature follicles that will be retrieved on Wednesday morning.

Up until this point I have been very muted about the whole process. I am sure it is partially in self-preservation. If I stay neutral then perhaps it will not hurt as much if things go badly. Well as hard as I may have tried, there was no controlling my racing heart whenever the NP called and said, "Are you ready? we are triggering tonight!" I replied, "Let's do it!"

I wonder if the donor is feeling as excited. I wonder too if it makes her sad to let go.
