First Shot Down

The shots have officially started. I gave myself my first dose of L.upron this morning. Yesterday we got our final calendar and went over consents, meds training, etc. It seems as if I'll be getting my meds as needed--which I am a bit sad about because I wanted to take a picture of all the loot. I also got verification that we will be doing a fresh 5 day transfer. We're doing the cgh testing on day three. So, far I have  no side effects from L.upron (but it's only been a few hours and I'm on my first dose). I've read horror stories on other ladies blogs but I'm really hoping that I'm one of the lucky ones that it doesn't affect much. I go for my next appointment next week--when I will have my baseline ultrasound and our cycle really be underway.

  1. Good luck to you! I didn't really get symptoms from the Lupron, except for mild headaches. So it can happen!

  5. yay for your first shot! my first shot was yesterday and it was a bit scary but very exciting to start. i'm taking menopur and follistim and i think my only side effects so far are headache (although this could be due to my lack of coffee this morning). hope you don't get any side effects!

  6. Best of luck! The shots get easier with time. Hope this cycle is the last (mean that in a good way)!

  7. Found you through cyclesista. I'm cycling right now too, doing donor egg IVF. Took my 2nd lupron shot today. Like you I don't feel any symptoms yet but am anxiously waiting. In fact, I just wrote about it over at my blog. Good luck and I am your newest follower.
