You know, I was expecting to feel a whole lot more like garbage than I do with all these shots and hormones and everything. I mean, I’m definitely not “normal”, I feel like someone inflated a balloon in my abdomen and my stomach is bruised and sore, so bending over is kind of tricky. But I don’t have major headaches, I don’t feel sick…nothin’ like that.
Even shots are getting easier. Follistim? Pssssh, no problem; easy as pie. I don’t even feel the needle pricks from all these shots anymore. (I do however still feel the medicine burn. I doubt that gets easier.)
It’s amazing what you can get used to.
So far this isn’t so bad. It’s not completely rocking my world. I’m definitely tired and sometimes I just feel listless, but I think that is probably from the hormones. I hate to think about IVF not working, but if it doesn’t and we have to do this one more time, I think I could do it.
Well, except for the Menopur shots. I don’t want to think about doing those again.
