Tell Will you're going commando. It will probably pique his interest in a big way!

Sorry you have a reaction to that injection. (I can't believe you can give yourself that shot in your tummy!) I hope the next one will be much easier! Thinking of you, BL

Wow that is a brave thing to do! I don't mind shots so much, but I just don't think I could intentionally jab myself with a needle - I like being able to place the blame on someone else

I really wish you luck! No one that deserves a baby so much should have to go through all this. I so admire your determination. You WILL do it!

Wow Michelle. You are one of the bravest people I know. I could never ever do that. I will keep my fingers crossed- you deserve a baby more than anybody.

I was even more nervous about doing the second shot because of the terrible reaction I had to the first!! I sat there for a couple of minutes with the needle posed over my tummy working up the nerve! When I finally did it, it wasn't too bad. It burned a little but nothing to serious!! I woke up this morning and you can see the needle mark but not realy any swelling or redness!! YAY!!

However, the injection site from Sunday night is awful! Its not gone down any, its still fire engine red and its puffed up even more! I showed the pharmacist this morning and he suggested I try a cortisone cream so I just smeared some of that on and hopefully that will help a little! I managed to find a pair of panties that don't rub on it too bad so hopefully I'll be able to keep them on all day today!

So, I'll continue to do the gonal-F injections in my tummy until at least Friday when I go in for blood work and an ultrasound. Then we will go from there depending on how my follicles are developing, I may have to continue the shots for a few more days after that! Good thing I have a big tummy or I'd run out of places to poke myself!

Thanks so much for everyones continue support!! I can't wait for the day when I can post pictures of my big, pregnant belly!! I'm not sure I could have made it through the last year or so without all the support of you guys!

Taking it one day at a time.....

I started to say "I'm glad it was easier," then I realized this 2nd one was harder for you to do! I know you were scared to give it to yourself after the reaction you had last time. I don't know how you do it! I don't think I could give myself a shot. I'm too squeamish!

Hopefully, all this work will pay off soon.
