Operation pin cushion: day 1

Had a scan and got the go ahead to start my ivf cycle. Yay. I had to give myself 3, yes 3, injections! It wasn't so bad though - it all came back when I got the kit out and got started.

I remember trying to do it the first time - shaking like a leaf and trying to convince Big Man to do it. He wouldn't because he was going home the next day so wouldn't be there to help. He (rightly) thought that I needed to do it the first time while he was there to talk me through it. I eventually stabbed the needle in and hardly felt anything (tiny needles) - all that drama for nothing.

Today's drugs were:
150ui Gonal F
75ui Merional
Growth hormone
Dexamethazone (a tablet - yay)
