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!
