Today was my second hMG injection for this cycle. My aunt stayed with me today and insisted I do my shot myself. I was hesitant at first, I wanted her to just do it for me. It took a few minutes of me getting my breathing under control, then I just did it…..and I felt like a total bad ass!! I needed to learn, because it will be much easier if I can do it myself….and I’m so glad I did. Wish me luck for tomorrow’s shot!

Infertility, why me? 
That is awesome. Hopefully it gets easier
🙂 thank you!
It will get easier with each one. Good for you!
I’m sure you’re right! Thanks!
You ARE a badass so it’s no wonder you feel like one. 😉 Wishing you good juju for tomorrow. You can do it!!
LOVE it! Thanks!
Good work! xx
thanks 🙂
You are a baller!
THANKS! 🙂
Hard core baby! 🙂
🙂 thanks
Good job! Good luck with the next shot…I know how hard it is to do it yourself…I managed to do it for a few days until I fainted…oops…that’s when I got to swap to suppositories ’cause there was no way I was going to do it myself again!
Thanks!! Are you talking about progesterone? I’ve never had to do that in shot form, just the suppositories.
I had to do progesterone shots and even though I had only done them for like a week I had a numb feeling in my right thigh for almost 6 months. Maybe I hit a nerve or something like that…who knows. And even after that torture I eventually miscarried and was reminded of that for months because of the numb feeling in my thigh…boooo!
Omg what a nightmare!
Um, okay, now you’ve set the bar pretty high for me!!
Lol. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, it’s not worth the extra stress! Just have your hubby do it if you’re not up to it!
I don’t think I’m up for it… I’m worried about the timing though. His work hours are not great, and I know it needs to be given at a certain time. Time till tell, as tomorrow could be the day!!!
Good job! The first one is always the worst and then you realize the worst part about it was the fear!
i was scared to inject myself as well the first two times on my first iui the nurse did it but my second iui i did it myself good luck
Yay!!! I remember feeling that way after I gave myself the trigger shot. 🙂 DH did my injectables this last cycle though. More because I think he just wanted to feel involved (either that or he enjoys getting to stab his wife with a needle once in awhile, lol).
LOL!!!!
