Long morning.
Got to the clinic right at 10:30. Waited in the waiting room with L for 15-20 minutes before they took us back. We watched a quick 5 minute video on how to properly give a subcutaneous (under the skin) and intramuscular (in the muscle) injection. I only have one that is subcutanous and it can be given in the pinch of fat on my thigh or belly. The intramuscular ones (I think there are 3?) are to go in my thigh muscle, in shoulder muscle or preferably high up on my butt muscle. These will last for about 4 months. =)
Psych eval was easy enough and didn't include any psychological tests; the doctor spoke to L and S and then DH and me, then me alone. Pretty cut and dry. He's been doing this for 12 years.
The whole appt took about 2.5 hours. Yikes!
I have a saline ultrasound scheduled for october 14th (Happy Birthday me). That's the final test before starting the drugs and synching up with the egg donor. I think we'll transfer in December or January. For now... I will enjoy every day not pregnant and not taking shots. Once we start... it will be a fairly tumultous year before it's over. Bring on the 'tini!
