Tender tummy from Lubion

I’m currently on Lubion shots once a day during my TWW after FET on 15th January. This is my first time in them and I get a tender bruised feeling about an hour after doing the shot which lasts about a day. Just checking if that’s normal?!?

There is no actual bruise just hurts if you press it like a bruise would 🤨

Thought I was a pro at injections now 😂

Totally normal. If it’s any consolation the longer I was on them the less it seemed to hurt afterwards 🤷🏼‍♀️

No worries 😂I had then for the first time before my last transfer and I was surprised at how sore it was after. I googled it and it seems to be the same for everyone. Don’t know if you noticed but the actual stuff is quite thick and can sort of sit in a lump under the skin after you do the injection so apparently if you sort of massage the area that can help.

Like I said though it did seem to get easier 👍🏻

Good luck!

Oh I hadn’t noticed a lump! The first one I did was fine and then since then it feels like someone has punched me in the gut after 😣 Glad that’s normal though and hoping it gets easier but I can live with it if not 🙏🏻 xx

Yes I totally experienced this. They didn’t seem to hurt that much at the time of the actual injection but the injection site really hurt for a couple of days afterwards. So I had to develop a strategy of moving spots (as was also doing clexane injections at the same time so ran out of non-hurting space!). Wishing you lots of luck for your 2WW and that the Lubion works it’s wonders making it all worthwhile! 🤞 xxx

It's been sore where I've been having my lubion. My trousers make it worse when rubbing on the area. It seems pretty common xxx ♥️

Totally normal. I do mine in the thighs I find it much easier and less painful x

No problem. Is good to know so you have few different areas to use the injections xxx

I’m having two a day and I think soon I will use the tummy as well x

Best of luck for OTD xx

Yep Lubion made me tender also. I tried not to inject right where my trousers/jeans did up and this did help a bit.

Make sure you warm it as well between your hand to thin ut out. This makes it easier to inject x

Also, inject really slowly....I feel that helps too. Ive only done a few shots of these myself so still mastering the technique!xx

I've used a hairdryer on mine this week for a bit to just warm it and it's defo been much easier to inject it xx
