    @mama2b1974 Do you know what patch they prescribed? I had my doctor write me one for the lidocaine patches and luckily it was covered by insurance. I still have a few weeks before I start PIO but i'm prepared!

    AFM, I'm up to 3 Estradriol a day AND my nurse ROCKS she called my PIO into Mandells and they'll be sending it out today should be here Monday.. its sesame oil and covered under my insurance:)
  • @ndz2018 the nurse ordered directly to the local specialty pharmacy, so I don't have the name but once she sends it to CVS I will be able to see the name on their portal and share the name with you.
  • @shae44 happy transfer day!  Glad everything went well!
    @kristimh80 thank you!

    @mama2b1974 thank you and glad everything is looking good for your transfer.  Good luck with your PIO.  Here and there I have one that stings, but they are not so bad.

  • @mcgeeva In my attempt to move spots on my booty...I did hit something at least 3 times a week! lol I found that if the needle wasn't going in easy, then prob was best to move it to another location, then I was fine. Only had slight bruising. Make sure to massage the area after, it def helps.

  • @kristimh80 that’s a good call! I didn’t think of that and it was hard to push in. Massage or just use a heating pad?

  • @mcgeeva omg! Ugh! Are you still doing it yourself? I’m wondering if it’s just hard to get a good angle?
    i think also because I’m numbing my injection area, I’m not tensing so I haven’t yet got much bruising 
  • @shae44 Ack! I should have looked at the spreadsheet this morning before posting! Congrats on being PUPO! 

    @dragonette505 beautiful embies! Love the shirt too. Congrats!

    @laurengon82 GL with your beta! Thinking *positive* thoughts for you :)

    @mcgeeva Jeeeeebus that looks awful.  I'm so sorry you're having trouble with the PIO. I've never used it before so I don't have any advice to offer but I hope you find a trick soon that makes it easier.

    so much excitement today!! congrats to all the PUPO ladies and major high fives to @laurengon82!! OK LADIES, TIME TO BE PASP!

    @tosh24 since you're in your mid-thirties, i highly recommend Everything Sucks on Netflix.  I just learned about it and blazed through the first ten episodes (24 mins each).  It's like Freaks and Geeks but set in 1996 -- so lots of nostalgia with the music and pop culture. 

    ETA:  Best of luck with your transfer tomorrow, @tosh24!

    3 more minutes and I missed it Happy transfer day @dragonette505!!! <3 and congrats on your embies they are so beautiful!

    Ladies, you are all so so so so brave <3 
    People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.
