First off I'd like to apologize for my absence. I have no excuse, I've just been not feeling like myself lately. Couldn't bring myself to blog much. I have to catch up on all my fellow bloggers as well.
I've been waiting for the day to come, when I would officially start this whole IVF thing, and that day is tomorrow. I ovulated on the 8th, so tomorrow night I give myself my first Lupron injection. Up until now, this whole thing has been surreal. I never thought I would be doing this and even after all the appointments and picking up all of my prescriptions, it seemed as if it was gonna happen to someone else.
I started taking a different pre*natal vitamin as well and it makes me feel a little weird. I'm not sure if I'm nauseous or not. I guess that's a good thing.
But I'm so nervous for tomorrow. I've watched a bunch of women on the internet giving themselves their first Lupron injection and everyone seems like it's no big deal.
So it's no big deal for me either. But yes it is. I can't make up my mind. I told my mom today that after tomorrow my life will change and hopefully for the better. This is the beginning of something great. I can just feel it.
I promise not to take so long in between posts!!!

Hey there
just got home from Tampa for a followup- will fill you in when we speak live. I'm beyond exhausted and will call you tomorrow. Thinking of you - good things are coming your way :)
Good luck with that! I look forward to hearing about this new stage of your journey.
The first one is the hardest. It's this big mental obstacle to just stick the needle in... But once you do it, it really is not a big deal. Good luck!
I just wanted to say I'm excited for you to be getting underway. The first shot is always the most difficult. But in no time you'll be a pro. Seriously, you will. Although when I was starting I was nervous, but it got lots better very quickly. I can easily give shots to others, but yourself is a whole different ballgame. So hang in there, and pretty soon you'll be commenting on someone else's blog that don't worry...injections aren't too bad :-) Welcome back, missed ya!
