All Triggered

I set my alarm and got up at 1am to do my trigger shot. I hate having to wake up and stab myself in the stomach with a needle, its just so unnatural. Anyhow I hope I didn't screw it up because when I drew up the medication it was a whole 3-4 cc's less. So I put it back into the vial, grabbed another 3 cc's of water and mixed it in. Then it was only like 2cc's less (I guess it reconstitutes by 1 cc, and then there is always a tiny bit I cant get out with the needle). I think I was just tired and couldn't see straight so hopefully its all good. Then I proceeded to give myself the shot and once again I just couldn't do it. I was trying to avoid having to wake up my husband to do it since it was in the middle of the night. He always does my shots for me because no matter how hard I try I can never push the needle in. So needless to say he got woken up! And get this, for the first time I didn't bleed! Usually I ALWAYS bleed a little and then get a massive bruise, but I think we hit a sweet spot this time : )

All set for IUI#2 in the morning!! DH has to be there at 9:30, then I go in at 11:00! Hopefully I get pregnant tomorrow!

I hope tomorrow is your day, too! A 1 am trigger sounds rough...the things we do to have our little babies in our arms!

Sending you good luck and wishes!

Congrats on trigger and IUI day! My nurse once told me the meds are the same dosage if you use a drop of diluent or the entire vial...so hopefully you are OK!
