I survived...

So, I just took my first Ganirelix shot.  I was really nervous about it.  It's new to me.  I wasn't nervous about the Menopur or Follistim.  I've taken them before.  The last time we did IVF, I took Lupron, not Ganirelix.  They basically do the same thing, but you start Lupron before everything else.  With Ganirelix, you start it halfway through the stims.  All I have to say is, Ouch!  The darn needle didn't want to break the skin.  I had to really stick myself hard with it.  My skin was tight around the needle.  It pulled my skin when I took the needle back out.  I'm not sure what that was about.  I'm not sure if it was the needle or where I stuck myself.  I have several injection spots on my lower belly now, so I asked Shawn to find a good/new spot.  If it was the location, I blame him.  LOL!  I Love You, Shawn!

I've been kind of snappy.  I'm trying not to.  I told the kids I am going to snap at them, but to ignore me and know that I am not doing it to be mean.  I told them they are not in trouble, I just can't always help it.  I'm trying to be nice and patient.  I can only imagine what my hormones look like now...

I painted my toenails around 10:30-11:00 last night.  We were watching Looper when I realized my toenails looked horrible and I didn't want to be getting ultrasounds and doing procedures with ugly looking toenails.  I asked Shawn what color last night.  He said purple, so that's what I painted them.  I put a layer of glitter nail polish on top.  As soon as the ultrasound tech walked in this morning, she saw my toes and said, "Your toes are so cute."  She even leaned in and touched one of my toes. I laughed and told her I had to paint them last night since I didn't want ugly toes throughout this.  Being a woman, she understood.

That's about it.  I'm really tired.  Is it time for bed yet?

Have a great FOOTBALL weekend!!!!!  GO COLTS!!!!!!!!
