  • Good luck! You can do it!
  • The anticipation is always worse! : )  Hopefully you'll be doing these for many weeks (I assume you keep on them once you're pregnant) and will get very used to them!
  • Congrats on making through!  I'm with you......I don't like anyone jabbing me with needles either, but if it works, it will have been SOOOOOOO worth it.  Half the battle is the mental anticipation!

    And what am I saying "if it works"???  IT WILL WORK!

    Good for you!

  • Glad you survived and that it wasn't so bad!!

    Anticipation is always the worst. Glad you made it through and it wasn't that bad.
    TTC since 3/08 DOR, High FSH, Hypothyroid, Uterine Polyps, blocked tube, MFI, 5 rounds of clomid, 5 IVF attempts, 2 hysteroscopies, 2 natural conceptions=2 losses (Methotrexate, D&C) Successful DE cycle twins born 10/7/11 Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker
  • I'm glad you made it through.  The needle stuff is so scary.
  • Indy, glad  it was all okay in the end :)
  • DH did not want to give me my shots for my IUI.  Luckily they were just in my abdomen so I could do it myself.  However, that first one I started to panic before administering it.  I sat there with the needle in front of me for about 15 min. before I finally worked up the guts to just jab myself.  After the first I realized it wasn't that bad.
