TTC After a Loss 6 Months+

2 shots down, 438 to go

Will someone please tell me why I could NOT STOP GIGGLING when I got my first shots last night?!?!

Something about DH playing, pausing, and replaying the instructional video (AT LEAST 5 times) while he loaded meds, then pinching my belly fat and stabbing me just seemed so surreal.

This is SOOO not how they told us babies happened in sex ed!

 

Re: 2 shots down, 438 to go

  • I'm glad you got the first ones done!

    In fricking sex ed, they made it seem like you could ALWAYS get pregnant. Always.

    Yes, but those of us who payed attention in sex ed were not the ones they were talking to. If that makes sense?

    BGP, I'm glad you could giggle through the sucky shots. I hope this does the trick!

  • I can't believe you are giggling, I was in tears.  Yea for the shots!  This is happening so fast.

     Those classes are full of lies, lies lies lies 

  • Good luck with all the rest of your shots.

    exactly..maybe I shouldn't have paid attention
  • Glad you got the first ones done, the rest will be much easier. I remember being told in school how careful you have to be because you can get pregnant so easily, never remember them mentioning shots. If you do the progesterone shot you should ice beforehand, then after the shot I rub the area with a warm washcloth in a circular motion. I have done this many times and I don't mind that shot anymore.

    Stupid sex ed class. Full of lying liars that lie! Although, maybe I *could* get pg at the drop of a hat when I was 16. At 35? Not so much. <sigh>

    12 long, hard years of TTC-
    Miscarriages, losses, lots of treatments & drugs & IVF


    Natural BFP (WTF?!) - 06/04/11 ~ lots of complication and drama, but sweet baby Adele born 02/07/12!

    BFP #million -another girl for us! EDD - 05-08-15 (but will come early)

  • Oh God. Why did you add up how many there are? Why did I read this?

     I think inappropriate giggling is the only way to deal with 450 shots.

    Me too.  DH told me the other night he's not sure he can do it and we should probably find a back up plan.  There's nothing that says romance like being stabbed in the belly fat by your husband.

    I really think this is how I deal with IF stress. I have an incredible urge to giggle every time I'm in the RE waiting room, too.

  • LOL well I'm glad it was a ahem good? experience

  • that's hilarious that he watched the videos! I was actually a bit freaked at how serious and into it my DH was the first few times. some strange "playing doctor" dream or something. . . (and no, not like that!)

    hope this is it for you!

    m/c#1 07/16/08 (11 weeks), m/c#2 10/10/08 (8 weeks). and then nothing since except every test possible (no answers). IUI#1 and #2: BFNs Super lucky to be buddies with Peetie. Our out of nowhere, surprise DD born 5/29/2011
  • I'm glad you could find humor in it! Better than me "oh god, oh god, oh god" first attempt. I think I shut my eyes - not recommended.
