Mrs Red:
That would have to be progesterone injectables... So after my iui's my husband would give me the shots of progesterone. We would do them when he got home from work but I would prepare them before he got home. They give you 2 type of needles from the pharmacy, one to pull the medicine out with and one to inject it with. So the first week of shots we did this without a hitch. It was weird at first but not bad. The second week I had to get a refill. I got confused about which needles to use so I accidentally used the one to inject with to pull the medicine out and the one for pulling the meds out to inject. I didn't notice until the second day and I was thinking "hmmm it's hard to pull this out, it wasn't tho hard before" and then I looked at my sharps container and realized the needle color was different on most of the needles... I called my hubby over and told him I found the error of my ways and he laughed and said "maybe that's why the needle bounced off your butt yesterday when I tried to inject it!" lol the injection site hurt a lot more with the wrong needle... Pay attention ladies! LoL


Ashley:
Well, my funniest story would be my first time taking Femara. I didn't have too bad of side affects on clomid but my first time on Femara I got really dizzy and felt like I was drunk. I just laid down in bed and my puppy got sick and vomited on the carpet beside me. My husband was outside so I flew out of bed and started cleaning it up, I was putting the cleaner on the carpet and cleaning up the mess...the motion from rubbing/cleaning the carpet made my dizziness x 10 worse I couldn't even see straight! My husband came in the bedroom and asked what I was doing when I tried to stand up I just fell right back down! He ended up getting me into bed and he finished cleaning up the mess. I was still worried about how our puppy was feeling!
