Nervous

I have my first egg retrieval on Thursday. I will do one more retrieval before transferring any embryos back. I am not worried about any of the procedures but I am starting to get very worried that 1) I will never get pregnant again or 2) that when I do, I will miscarry again.
All my doctors have said my miscarriage was due to chromosomal issues and there is no reason to think I can't carry a pregnancy, but I still worry. I'm sure all these injections I've been doing are making me super emotional as well so that isn't helping. Anyone else dealt with this?

You will do so awesome at the procedure, and before you know it all these nightmares will end and you'll have your precious little one beside you!!! Sending you positive vibes for an easy procedure. Hang in there!

    Thanks Tomigrl....I still have another month of injections for a 2nd retrieval before any transfers....I am hoping all this worrying is just the mass amounts of hormones lol

    Good luck today, hon. I just know you will have a sweet baby in your arms soon. And those hormones are a killer- I'm sure they are a huge part of your nerves. Sending hugs your way!

    Well, you know everything I have gone through during this process, and I can say everytime I hold my little girl, it's worth every second. Just picture that moment and know it will happen for you. And all these injections, emotions, and crazyness will be a distant memory. Good luck!!! I'm praying for you.

    I was hoping for twice as many eggs, but I have no idea what is typical.
