TTC after 35

First hcg shot tonight

I had my iui earlier this week and all went well. All except for the occasional anxiety attacks I am still having. It definitely helps to know others a re having the same thoughts so I thank you all for the responses to my earlier post. 

 

Tonight was the first hcg shot (3 total), and I am so thankful my dh was home to give it.  I was doing ok until I started mixing it and getting ready. I have serious needle issues so  I am really thankful for dh. He did really well and it only hurt a little. 

 Anyone else do hcg?  Any side effects I should expect? 

Re: First hcg shot tonight

  • I only had to do one shot each series (got BFP on 2nd IUI) but may be in for the three shot sequence next round in a few months.  The only side effect I got was a tiny, tiny bruise at the injection site.  Nothing else physically.  Good luck!!
