Lupron - Day 1

Oh here are the pictures of my med's that were delivered on Saturday for my first IVF round. I figured it seems like a ritual for everyone to post their med's picture when they arrive so here are mine..not too bad ha?


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I take the gauze out, the alcohol sheets and the Lupron..I open the Lupron and look at it..maybe I didn't double check things correctly? Its only one vial of solution? But, I see I'm taking only 10ml..but still looks fishy... I read the directions a few times to make sure that I am doing it right...wouldn't want to mess this up!

Seems pretty easy - I'm no stranger to mixing my own cocktails! I mix it, get the gauze ready and wipe the alcohol pad on my thigh and squeeze...SOMETHING MUST BE WRONG - it didn't hurt and was wayyyy to easy...Is it because its not like there is a lot of solution in there? I don't know...seemed way to simple..BUT, the solution was in there and I followed the directions..so Ill TAKE IT!

First day of Lupron done..The count down now begins...
With Love,

    Im responding to your comment on my blog...no, Indiana does not have mandated coverage for IVF. It would be nice though. Illinois apparantly does...maybe we should just jump the border for a little while?? :) It's a thought...lol

    Hi Melissa,

    I am from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Just surfing the internet trying to decide if I should proceed with yet another IUI or take that giant leap into the IVF world. Your story was exactly what I needed (it also helped that we have practically the identical fertility history). Reading your blog has inspired me. I now know what I need to do. THANKS!!
