The shots begin

These shots have sure been an adventure! I was able to make it for my u/s on Tuesday, but ended up missing part of dance because my 4:15 appointment  didn't get me out of there until 5:15. Too bad my hip hop class started at 5:30. No biggie, I made it in time for the rest of dance. :)

So, Wednesday night was the beginning of our shots. One vile of Brevelle and one vile of Menopur. So, Patrick goes to start this whole process, and we quickly realize that our syringes are "safety lock" and you cannot take off the needle to use the QCAP. After our uneasiness of not really being sure if we missed 1cc, we called my Sister and she said no worries, there was one cc in the needle. I tired to give myself the shot and couldn't do it, so my husband was brave and did it for me.


On Thanksgiving morning, we trekked to the 24 hour Walgreens by Royal Oak Beaumont to figure out our needle/syringe debacle. The pharmacist was SUPER nice and turned out to be a fertility specialist. She gave us the right needles and the information we needed to go back back to our Walgreens to get the exchange our "safety" lock needles. Turkey Day shot went MUCH better.

Tomorrow is blood work and another u/s. Here's to hoping this doesn't  interfere with my 3rd row Michael Buble tickets in Grand Rapids on Friday!
