No, those aren’t beer goggles that’s causing you to see a blurry photo. The blur is because I took this pic with a pillow covering my face and my camera kinda-sorta aimed at my belly.
Yes, I’m a wuss. I’ve had months of these injections (tonight’s was Gonal F, so it’s only my second cycle with these particular injections), but I still need Rob to administer them while I hide my eyes.
The needle is tiny, it doesn’t really hurt (except for stinging medicine and the weird needle-removal feeling), and I STILL need to cover my face and be surprised with it.
After months of regular injections and blood draws, yes. I’m a wuss. And I’m proud of it. It means I’m not quite that jaded.
Edited addition: That’s my bare belly you’re seeing through the blur, NOT my bare ass. FYI.
*CRINGE!!!!!!* you are a braver woman than i am jenny. I really enjoyed meeting you today! Can’t wait to get together again soon!
Ugh, dreaded shots.
I had to give myself shots every day of my pregnancy. I didn’t have to do injectibles to get pregant, but with my lovely combination of blood clotting disorders, I have to do injections of blood thinners whenever I am pregnant. I wish my husband would do mine for me! I did all but 2 I think by myself. For 42 weeks every day, sometimes twice a day, I had to give myself shots. The things we go through to be blessed with the miracle of motherhood! Sending good thoughts and lots of prayers for you this cycle!
Sending lots of prayers!
