Weekend Shots

Even though I thought I had kept our calendar kind of clear during the IVF process, this weekend was packed. Friday wasn't so bad because we just moved injection time up 30 minutes and we were on our way to see a lounge act, Miss Kitty, at the Velvet Tango Room. In our haste to get out of the house and get some food before the show, we both forgot about my daily treat. That's OK, Bill has been so good with this whole thing that his love is treat enough for me.

Saturday's shot was a bit trickier. Bill has know Tommy since he started DJ'ing at the Brick House 10 years ago. Those were fun times for all of us. It is where Bill and I met 10 years ago, both of us attached to other people at the time. Who knew where it would lead! Tommy hired Bill to do his wedding last night so we were going to have to do the injection on-site. Bill was set up on the stage so at 8pm (perfect timing, speeches were over, the blessing was said, and the dinner music was on auto pilot) we snuck behind the curtains and did the shot via flashlight. I'm sure people have had to do their shots in some creative places, but I hope this is as creative as we are going to have to get. Next Friday starts the 2 injections per day. I want to be home to do those, as I hear the side effects of the one shot are pretty nasty. We'll have to be non-social for a week or more until it is time to harvest all the eggies (hopefully!)

I also got some lemon cookies as my treat for Saturday shot.

Sunday's shot was uneventful, didn't even feel it until after it was done and then there was a slight burn. Treat was cereal bars. (I won't have to grocery shop for a while, if I keep getting food treats!)
