Check that one off the list!!!!!!!!!!!! Can I say I got no sleep before the trigger because of adrenaline and no sleep after because of the adrenaline...I'm so tired right now!!! (p.s. I only had bar.bie and nas.car bandaids at my house...I nanny so I bought fun ones...DH picked this one out...lol)
We got up when my alarm went off at 12:25 and I ran downstairs to ice my heinie. We didn't have any frozen peas or corn so I ended up grabbing some frozen rockfish that hubby caught earlier this summer. That was WAY too cold...so I ended up just putting it on five minutes before.
I told DH that I didn't want to look at the needle...he needed to just prepare it and get it in!! I was too nervous!!
He got it all ready and seriously was just finishing loading the syringe when I announced "IT'S 12:45!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I laid on my stomach on the couch (with a blanket under me in case I was a bleeder) and pulled my right knee up...trying to relax my muscles as much as I could.
My heart was pounding so hard...I grabbed Espie and squeezed him SOOOO tight...
DH was like "Are you ready??"
and I said "The alcohol swab!!! Disinfect me!!!"
He did so quickly and I felt so numb back there I said "Do it quick!!!"
I felt the slightest prick...like he had wussed out on me and just poked my skin the smallest bit before pulling back. I was like...you've gotta be kidding me...get it in there honey...but I didn't say anything....
Then he said "I'm putting the medicine in now...."
And I was like "The needle is in??????????????????? I FEEL NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO BABY GO!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
So that's my story. Just the slightest prick...that was the EASIEST, most PAIN FREE shot I've done in this entire process. Wow.
I bled just a little bit...so he cleaned me up and got me that nifty bandaid...after I put the heating pad on I felt a little tenderness when I pushed down on it but other than that I'm feeling good!!!
Now I'm just worried every time I pee that all those eggs are going to drop right out of me!!! Stay in there guys!!! Tomorrow's your debut!!!! :o)
Thanks again for all your encouragement and guidance ladies!!!

That's terrific that everything went perfectly. Way to go hubby!!!! Let me know how acupuncture goes - I've never tried it.
You rock!! Way to go, babe! Enjoy your relaxing day!
See, you made it through with flying colors!!! So proud!
You did it! Way to go! Do you have to take PIO injections? If not- that WAS YOUR LAST SHOT. How does that make you feel???
WOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!! You did it! I am glad that your sweetie did a good job. I am crackin' up about the rockfish. LOL!!! Hopefully there will be no more rockfish arse again. :)
I love the bandaid!!!!
PS I woke up last night at 130pm with horrid leg cramps...and I thought about you. :) Not b/c of the leg cramps, but I wanted to know how the shot went.
Sounds like it could not have gone any better! I will be thinking of you tomorrow! Good luck!!!
P.S. - don't be too surprised if the staff in rockville is less than warm and fuzzy. we found them to be cold as ice - efficient, but no personal touch. this is a common complaint from other ladies too. dr. m and jackie aren't there so it is a sea of strangers. unless you are lucky enough that it is his day on out there.
WHOOOHOOO!! It's almost time! I can't wait to hear that wonderful count;)
AGH!!! Way to go! :)
No problem! I hope everyone is pleasant as punch. Can't wait to hear about how it goes. My prediction? 16 eggs :)
Good luck tomorrow!!
