1st PIO Shot...Ever =

Easier and less painless then I expected!!!  It was also Dh's 1st time giving me a shot and I think I was more nervous about him giving it to me then he was, although he has been anti-shots from the get-go.

Hopefully these daily pio shots will continue to be smooth sailing from here on out!!!

  • Glad the first one went so well! They are a lot easier than I thought they would be too. I have only a couple that hurt, and even those weren't too bad. Good Luck!

  • I have to say that the shot itself is a piece of cake its the bruising and the lump in my bum that hurts ;)

    I am hoping that they continue to be PAINLESS!

  • Glad it went smooth.  At least he will get pleanty of practice, so it should get better as time goes.

  • I didn't notice too much pain from them until I had to stop after my BFN.  I had probably been on them for about 3 weeks, so I don't know if it had just started catching up with me or they truly don't feel terrible until after you go off them.  Hoping yours continue to be easy and relatively painless for you.
