On the trusting the doctor front, I was referring specifically to my OB, who I trusted completely. If she told me I should do it, I did it. I asked questions, of course, but I always followed her advice and recommendations.

{{{sj}}} The fertility stuff seems crazy and scary at first, but it's wild how quickly you adjust to it. I used to hate shots/needles but after going through all the fertility stuff I did? NBD at all to me now. If you have to do the progesterone in oil shots, I found it helpful to ice the area before the shot, and apply heat and massage after. Oh and hold the syringe like a dart - I remember DW having to do that and it made it easier. Sorry if it's TMI. Wishing you success, friend! I'm here if you have any questions I might be able to answer.

Thanks. Not TMI, and I really appreciate the advice. The shot is Ovidrel. And I'm much less worried about the needle then TCG is.

I just called to book everything. I'm really wishing my mother wasn't in Italy right now.

And I killed the thread. Sorry!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

sj, best of luck and much ~ma!

Ah, the old belly shot. I found those to be pretty painless. It seemed crazy to do a shot in the belly, but I seriously barely felt it.

And I'm much less worried about the needle then TCG is.

THIS! DW was way more nervous about it than I was. She ended up being a pro by the time we were done.

They said belly or thigh. I'm really hoping TCG doesn't have time to become a pro. This procedure is only 1 shot a month.

Yep belly or thigh is what I recall as well. Here's to one shot success!!!!!

Trying to think of a golf hole-in-one joke that would be appropriate... not coming to me.

So, I'm observing an interesting phenomena in myself. How recieving 31 emails within 8 minutes is causing me to freak out a bit. Strange. And yes, by doing this, it is helping me calm down. You'd think I'd be used to tons of emails at this job. But 31 in less than 10 minutes?!? Oy. Yeah. Kinda crazy.

I know different shots are different, but the diabetic friend I grew up with always preferred those days when her shot rotation got to her belly.
