Day 11 - Preparation

Tomorrow morning at 7:30am I will have my egg retrieval surgery. I've taken no medications today. I'm not allowed to eat after midnight. I have to take an enema this evening to clear out my bowels. I picked up pain medication today for after the retrieval. I'm bringing water, crackers, a pillow and blanket. I'm wearing loose comfortable clothes, I get to keep on my socks and t-shirt during the procedure. I couldn't be more ready. I'm sure I'll be nervous in the morning. My mom is taking me to the hospital, which is really special.

I have felt good today. Only minor pains in my abdomen when getting up out of a chair and sitting back down.

Wish me luck! =)
