| Friday 27 October 2017 | Fly to the UK |
| Saturday 28 October 2017 | 7:30am arrive at clinic for scan 7:45am egg collection RESULT – 2 eggs collected 11am – called embryologist: neither egg was mature, so none could be frozen |
Note: I didn’t have blood tests done at every scan. The scan results usually determined when and what I needed to have my blood tested for. Keeping the blood tests to a minimum helped keep costs down a little.
RESULT – 2 eggs collected, none mature so none frozen
Another unexpected hurdle – 28 October 2017, day of collection
