Oh ladies, my medications for our first IVF cycle showed up today, in a HUGE box. I paid $3,500 for all my meds and I was too scared to open the box!!! I really hope i'm going to survive this!!! I'm so freakin scared right now! I have to do different kinds of injections. Some in my abdomen and some in my butt muscle! again i've been too afraid to deal with this. I don't have to start meds until the 31st of July. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh help me!!

The first one is the worst, the rest are a breeze! It's a mental thing. I would talk myself into it by reminding myself of my friend who's diabetic and has been giving herself injections since she was 10. If a kid can do it, so can I (and so can you)! That being said, I was glad that I only had to stim for 10 days.

thanks gals!! I mustered up the courage to open the box of meds today. not because i really wanted to, but because if I didn't double check to make sure everything was there by end of day today, I would have no recourse if something was missing. Well nothing was missing. I have this horrible feeling in my stomach right now. DH is freaking out a bit on the whole thing. I just want it to be over and a bfp staring me in the face! ok I can do this, i can really do this.....
