On Wednesday September 3rd at 7pm I gave myself my last 2 injections:) The last two injections were the HCG trigger shot, which allows my body to ovulate. Ovulation won't occur until 36 hours after giving the injections, so they had to be time perfectly to when my surgery was scheduled. Our nurse called Wednesday afternoon to go over the day of surgery information and when to inject the trigger shots. My surgery was schedule for 7am on Friday September 5th, but we had to be there at 6am to check in!
The last two injections were subcutaneously in my abdomen, like the previous injections. For some reason both of these shots hurt and made me bleed. I feel like it was my punishment for my last shots, haha! I felt sharp pains a few hours after receiving the shots, so I just rested the next 36 hours until surgery day! I didn't want to ovulate on my own, because then this whole process would have been for nothing. I have only heard of a few people that ovulated all their eggs before their surgery. I figured taking it easy would hopefully help my body stay calm:)
