Egg retrieval tips?

[Anonymous]

I have my egg retrieval tomorrow and only instruction I was given was to not eat or drink after midnight. Google tells me there are many more instructions such as not wearing makeup, lotions, or contact lenses. What did your clinic tell you?

This is the advice I got ymmv:
Eat some pineapples and blueberries
Ask them to stick some extra anti-nausea patches on you if you are sensitive to anesthesia
Get enough rest before and after
Keep taking prenatals

Which practice, OP?

Chug a ton of Gatorade after. It will help prevent OHSS.

I was with SG. I was told no makeup, nail polish, or deodorant for retrieval. I am sensitive to anesthesia ( bad nausea), and the anesthesiologist gave me zofran when I mentioned this ahead of time.
If you are at risk of OHSS (high E2, lots of follicles), drink gatorade.

Good luck!
