I did my first injection last night! I was so nervous and anxious all day yesterday! I had decided that my injection time was going to be 8:00 p.m. everynight. So I was watching the Amazing Race last night and the whole time I kept thinking to myself I don't want this show to end because that would mean injection time! Too quickly 8:00 p.m. rolled around. Bob and I went to the bathroom and I cleaned the top of the bottle containing the Lupron, opened the syringe, cleaned my skin and got the Lupron in the syringe. I then proceeded to pinch a large area in my belly and held the needle by my skin. Bob and I had to do at least 10 to 12 count downs before I actually stuck the needle in! I was so nervous my hands were sweating, my heart was racing and I was shaking like crazy! Bob kept saying this is for our baby - you can do it. I worked myself up way more than I needed to! It really did not hurt at all! I was pleasantly surprised! So now I am on this injection until the 21st where I will start my stimulation drugs to get the eggs growing! I have a doctor's appointment on the 16th and I am kind of hoping that things are looking so well that she will have me start stims earlier but I doubt that will happen. So the ball is really rolling now!

Look at all the wonderful things you can tell the baby when they come home with purple hair and 25 piercings...
"Do you know what I went through so that you could have that hair?"
"If you think you are going to put holes in the body that I worked so hard to make, you have another thing coming!"
I can't wait to see it!
