Hello everyone! I am new in this forum and am also new to IVF . I started my IVF journey on May and everything is going well so far I got my egg retrieval done , they were able to get 18 eggs, 14 were mature but only 2 fertilized! they already schedule my FET on July 23rd and am about to start my progeterone shots on the 18th ,. Am a little nervous but hoping for the best! Any comments or suggestions will be appreciated thank you!

Any comments or suggestions on Progesterone shots ?
I totally get being nervous. The needle is big! But it surprisingly doesn’t hurt that much. I found them to be less painful than the stims. They do kind of make your butt sore after the fact though. Kind of like sore muscles from a workout. My nurse recommended warming the area first then doing the shot and applying heat after and massaging the area. All the best!
Good luck with your cycle lovely and welcome to the forum. I would say for the wait try to relax as much as you can as I drove myself a bit mental with over analysing every single potential pregnancy symptom😱. Totally easier said than done though and I think most struggle with this.
For your transfer you need a full bladder - my clinic didn’t tell me this, thankfully I’d not peed prior! 😂😂
I found the transfer to be the easiest part and had hardly any discomfort at all, it just felt like a smear test. Keeping my fingers crossed your wee embie is a sticky one xxx
Thank you soo much for your info and wishes 🙏🏼❤️ I am trying to stay as calm and relaxed as possible, good thing is after my transfer my clinic will do the pregnancy test one week after so I wont have to wait so long, not sure why its only one week but Oh well the sooner the better right? Am more exicted as I get closer to my transfer day and I have a lot of faith that everything will turn out ok , thanks again for replying and the tips as well
