IVF cycle II Appointment IV

This is just a brief update. On Saturday I had my fourth appointment and it was pretty quick. It looked like Dr Garza was juggling a lot that day. He did confirm that my retrieval is tomorrow though so that was helpful.

Tomorrow is one of the no fragrance/jewelry/make up days. They'll use twighlight anesthesia and I shouldn't be out for too long. I did well last time with not much pain - fingers crossed I'm just as lucky tomorrow!  My least favorite part is that I can't eat or drink now until after the procedure. I just know I'm going to be starving in the morning.

Jason and I did go to Boca Chica Beach yesterday evening and it was pretty although very gray. The sky was foggy and the waters looked like steel. We saw a cayotee (it might have been a dog but I've never seen a cayotee before and that was our first guess) crossing the highway and, at the beach, pelcans bobbing just off shore .

This morning we went to the zoo and I managed to develop blisters on both my baby toes. The place was just as pleasant as my previous visit and we spent a few minutes mimicking a gorilla. He watched us intently and kept repeating gestures, seemingly, for us to copy 😀

The weather has been beautiful. We almost hit eighty today and this evening was 70. There is most often a breeze moving through town and that keeps things fresh!  This is my kind of winter.

I need to get to bed - there are typically long waits before the retrieval procedure and during recovery afterwards - if I'm feeling ok, maybe I can provide some live updates.
