One Shot Down, ??? To Go!

I had my first Lupron injection today. The needle going in didn't hurt, but boy did the medicine burn. I also had an itchy reaction right away, and the spot has now turned into a lovely, dime-sized purple bruise. I ended up going for the belly afterall. All my BCP bloating has given me enough to pinch. Goodbye flat stomach. I was ready to say goodbye to it with a pregnancy, but giving it up to infertility meds is a little sad. Oh well--it's all for the same goal.

I bought the best injection underwear from Victoria Secret. They have no tag, no elastic, and are so super soft and smooth. I'm sure they'll come in handy with all the hip shots. Those are the ones I'm really dreading. I will have to do one PIO shot by myself when I have my next business trip, and I hope I can do it. Looking at that needle makes me want to pass out. I'm such a baby, I know.

How soon did you all start feeling the side effects of Lupron? I'm only fearful of the headaches...I have some major writing to do for work this week and hope I'll be able to concentrate.
