Things are about to get interesting...

On Tuesday I have my injection training, and on Thursday I go in for my 1st Lupron injection for IVF #1. I'm so happy my RE's nurse is doing the 1st injection, and that dh will be at the injection training. I know in a pinch, I'd be able to give myself injections, but I'm going to do everything in my power to get out of it. My fear of needles goes back to high school when I went in to donate blood and the nurse couln't find a vein; I was turned into a human pin cushion. In the end she wasn't even able to get a pint of blood, and I was sent home with bruises lining both arms. In the past couple years I've had more b/w than in my previous 34 years, so now I'm not as big of a wuss as I was before (I'm even voluntarily going to acupuncture!). I still can't look at the needle going into my arm, which I can see as being problamatic if I were left to give myself a shot. Guess I'm going to have to suck it up, as I know dh will not be around for every injection.
