The countdown is on....I start my follistim injections in the morning! Never thought I would be so excited to stick a needle in my belly. Wish me luck and feel free to pass along any injection tips!
Yay - this is so exciting!!! I've heard ice the area first - I never did though. The follistim shots aren't bad at all - very skinny needles. But definitely leave the needle in for about 5 seconds after you use all the meds as it takes awhile for it all to come out, and you don't want to waste a drop of that precious stuff!
Good luck to you!!!! I agree with the other ladies who said that the injections are easy. Pretty painless. I would rotate between your belly and legs and see which is easier for you. Thinking of you...
Haha I know that feeling!
ReplyDeleteThrow it like a dart and keep it in for a second or two after all the med went in bc it will help decrease bruising. GL :)

ReplyDeleteSo excited for you!
It isn't as painful as you would imagine. It more annoying than anything. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI made my husband do it on the basis that plucking your eyebrows is less sore if someone else does it!
