I'm having one of those "Why can't I get pregnant from a stick in the va-jay-jay one time rather than mulitiple sticks in the deep gluteal muscles of my ass over and over and over again" days.
Delestrogen hurts more than I remember PIO hurting---oh and I get to start PIO in just a few short weeks with it.
That's all for now. We have crappy weather today so I guess my mood has joined it.

Crazy hormonal preggo!!!! Maybe I should sit on some snow cones!!
lol, I'm also sorry your butt hurts.
Yes- it will all be worth it!!!!!!!
I think you'll get to scream the same things at your kids that I will to mine someday - "DO YOU KNOW WHAT I WENT THRU TO GET YOU HERE?" Now ace that test and get into Harvard. lol.
FWIW... I started sitting down on the toilet and shooting my side butt area and right around the hip joint 3 fingers below area.... it seems to hurt a bit less than the arse. and I go really slow. and I wait a minute and then rub it in REALLY good, circles, smushes, slaps... seems to not make the knot as much and the hurt is less. Kinda.
Yes I will make you snow cones when you come up for my delivery and you can sit on them!!!! But I'm not eating those afterward!!!!!!

Ok- call me the wimpiest nurse you have ever met, but there is no way in hell that I am shooting myself up anywhere for an IM injection. I am always in awe of people who can do their own IM's. Martin does them all and I actually think he does it about where you say. It is a huge production too! I numb it with ice, lay on the couch with my head in the pillows, breathe and whine and moan until it is over and then sit on a heating pad to distribute the oil (castor oil). Can you believe I am the same person who has natural childbirth?? Anyway, I just don't remeber the PIOs making me ache this much the next day. This Delestrogen is something else. No knots that I can feel though...not yet anyway. But i am only on my 2nd injection.
whhhaaaaaaaaaaa? next you'll tell me that seeing someone vomit makes you sick. lol. (once time I spent an hour changing a bedridden patient's entire bed linens - WITH THEM IN THE BED.... and then I got her in clean dry clothes, all lotioned up and smelling nice... she looks at me and says "I'm going to puke." I instantly held out my scrub shirt by the front bottom edge, and told her to barf right in my shirt. True story. I was NOT doing that bed thing again!!!)
I personally cringe at the ice 1st idea.... you're tensing up those muscles. Loose loose loose muscles. flabby is the key!
First- you are a better nurse than I am :-)
I hear you on the ice thing. It was a suggestion given to us by the nurses at my clinic and worked VERY well for me with the PIO shots. I tolerated those suckers very well. No lumpy butt and very little soreness (and I never feel the needle- only the medicine). Martin also warms the oil between his hands to make it warm going in.
Oh- and who are you calling flabby??? I have one tight ass my friend!!
