For sure wear comfortable clothes and have some comfort items for after. Snacks, a book, a show, blanket. Don't plan on doing anything because you deserve a day for recovery.

@Terri thank you so much for your advice. I will definitely plan for a relaxing day after

Definitely don't stress and good luck!

Not sure what sedation your clinic will use, but I'd have stool softener at home as constipation can be a common reaction. Also stock up on electrolyte drinks 😊 but mostly relax and listen to your body

Relax, hydrate, and take the following day off work if you can.

Agree with the stool softener (it is good to have on hand). Relax and give yourself a day or two to get back to typical activity level.

Thank you so much everyone. Today my doctor was able to retrieve 32 eggs!! So so grateful!

That's incredible!! Well done!
