Fist injection complete 😊

I really don’t know why I was so worried.

I set my alarm and awoke from a really nice dream to face my first injection. I got everything prepped and ready to go in the pen and I just stood for a moment. Pen positioned and ready to go but I didn’t press the trigger. I waited and took in the moment, shit scared of the needle but finally starting the amazing journey of our next chapter. Then a deep breath and click, I was worried the needle hadn’t gone in as I didn’t feel a thing. But oh, yep, there was the sting. Not to unpleasant though, a mild sting that lasts 10/15 seconds.

So here we go, 2 weeks of this and another wanted aunty flow.

The thought of this was terrifying me. Glad it’s not too bad. I’ve got a while before I start mine. Hope all goes well for you x

Honestly it is ok. Once you have done that first one you will be fine. Also they give you a lesson on how to do it all and a check sheet so you don’t have to remember everything. Xx

Can I ask, did you ‘come on’ on your normal day or early? I’m not due on until the end of this he two weeks. Xx

They put me on the pill for 21 days so I would come on and not have to wait as I usually have a period every 9 weeks so I can’t help you with this sorry. Hope you come on when you are due 💗 xx

That’s ok, thank you though. I am quite regular so I will just have to keep stabbing for the 2 weeks. Xxx

It will I promise, I just thought about the wonderful hopeful out come at the end of it. It makes it all worth while. Xxx

Well done, lovely. I found the process a lot easier than I thought it would be. I guess that was lucky as I know some people have a hard time. I hope it continues to go smoothly for you x
