At 10:40pm, right on the dot - my husband gave me the 1mL shot of Novarel per the doctor's instructions. The intra-muscular shots feel a little different than the sub-cutaneous ones, but it wasn't painful - just a little poke and you can feel it being injected. Mission complete!! Now back to the Ohio State & Purdue game.... Go Bucks!!
seriously...you have no nerves. :) i'm going to punch you in the arm when you're not looking and see if you even notice. gold stars for going through all of this. lots of them.

My husband and I got married in 2005 and tried to start our family back in January 2008. We started our 1st round of in-vitro in December 2010 - which is when this blog was started. Despite a near perfect cycle, it resulted in a negative pregnancy test in February 2011. We were fortunate to get 6 extra embryos from that cycle that were frozen. In March 2011 we started a Frozen Embryo Transfer cycle. Despite another great cycle (on paper), all 6 of our frozen embryos had to be thawed to get 2 good ones for transfer - which failed to result in a pregnancy. In 2012, we took the first half of the year off and then tried a couple rounds of IUI with and without fertility shots - still no baby. In 2013, we did our 2nd round of in-vitro with my sister offering to be our gestational carrier. We ended up transferring 2 embryos into each of us and were blessed to welcome 4 babies in October 2013.
