First shot done.
Ba-ba-boom.
The egg share councellor had shown us how to do it on Tuesday. First I get the syringe ready and withdraw 0.50 from the bottle of Buserelin. Then I grab a bit of fat on my stomach (not hard) and inject. The needle is so tiny that I almost didn't feel it, and all I have to show for the shot is a bit of a red rash at the injection mark and shaky hands.
But the hands shake because of the enormity of it all beginning, I think.
Moving house today and getting doggy today.
That, and my RE? She said I can continue to drink while on suppressors.
Don't mind if I do...

Posted by: statia at March 24, 2006 11:29 PMhi! this is my first visit to your blog. I am about 1 week behind you - I go to my injection instruction (and first shots) a week Monday.
please keep posting and let us know how you're finding everything.
GIANT BUSHELLS of luck to you and your ovaries!
The first shot has to be the worst, I can't blame you for the shakey hands.
Best of luck today - what a big day. We need a puppy update, I want to know what kind you are getting too (other than cute).
I like your RE, you'll need a drink by the end of the day.
Yay! I'm glad you got through it. I know a lot of people have a hard time giving themselves shots.... good job!
