[quote=Anonymous]--IM shots really aren't that bad. They look like they should hurt like a MF, but hurts less than a pin prick on your finger

--PIO goes in better if it's warm. I use a microwavable heating pad. Place the filled syringe on it for a few minutes. Inject, massage, then sit on the heating pad until it cools.

--When you need a full bladder (for some tests and transfer), do not drink the water when they tell you to or more than 16 oz. (SG says 1 hour prior to arrival, but you have to be there 30 mins before the transfer) I drink it 1 hour from the procedure time and only 16oz. Anything more than that and I'm in so much pain. If you can, try it yourself before hand to see when you feel uncomfortable.

--Should have moved on to DE sooner. My numbers said I should have moved on, but I was holding out hope. Now that we are doing it, I'm so relieved.

--BCP are the worst. Nothing is as bad as BCP!

--PIO (or any Progesterone) will give you pregnancy symptoms. DO NOT symptom spot. Until you test positive, you aren't pregnant.

--Even if you aren't using progesterone, you will have pregnancy symptoms (or no symptoms) DO NOT symptom spot. For every person that had your symptoms (or no symptoms) and was pregnant, you will find someone who wasn't pregnant. Each person, each pregnancy is different. Until you test positive, you aren't pregnant.

--Don't put your life on hold. Do you best to plan vacations or weekends away. [/quote]
