[quote=Anonymous]I don't see any reason to hide the shots. Like the PP said, just say they are medicine that is supposed to help. Just like a diabetic takes insulin. Once you get used to them, they're pretty quick too. I think once YOU get used to the whole thing, it will be easy for you to convey to her that it's no big deal. Because while doing IVF is a big deal in a mental/emotional sense, the mechanics of it really aren't, it's some shots and some doctor's appointments. (It seems really overwhelming before you start, but trust me it's not that bad.) Not anything she needs to worry about. I'm not sure what to say about the weight gain issue. Medication sometimes causes weight gain. It's normal.[/quote]
