Yesterday's injections went great (day 13).
Lupron 5units
Follistim 150units
Menopur 75units
So, my husband and I decided to let our 4 yr old watch me administer the injections, last night. He'll be getting some immunization shots in a couple weeks and we thought it might make it a little easier for him if he saw Mommy do it. He did okay. He was very curious and asked me if it hurt. Of course, I told him "No, it didn't" I ended up having to inject the Follistim 2times, silly me forgot to wind the pen and so there was no medication to inject when I put the needle in...my husband was laughing at me :)
When I was done with the injections, my son and I had a little talk. I told him he would be getting a few shots of his own in a few weeks. He started crying, I was so sad. He asked me if it was going to hurt. I told him it would hurt him, and he cried a little more. I then told him that he had to get the shots and it was going to hurt, but it would make it so he wouldn't get sick. He smiled, stopped crying and said "Okay, Mommy".
So that being last night, today in the car on our way back home he told me "Mommy, I don't feel good" I asked him if his tummy hurt and he said "yes". Then he said the funniest thing ever "Mommy, take me to the doctor. I need a shot, so I don't get sick" Ah...so cute!!!
