This morning's Lupron injection went off without a hitch. The nasty taste of the Dexamethasone was a helluva lot worse than the needle in my stomach! Maybe this meds thing won't suck so bad like I thought it would. (Well at least for now while I'm doing sub-cu injections!)
However . . . I learned tonight that my meds are supposed to be injected at the-very-same-time-every-day. For the next month, I will be up every day no later than the asscrack of before dawn to shoot up. Including during my week off at Thanksgiving. For those of you who don't know me personally & know how sleeping in is next to Heaven for me . . . maybe this meds thing might suck after all! :)

I will tell you what the already-mommies told me when I was doing IVF...
The lack of sleep is going to prepare you for the exhaustion of having a child.
Total bullsh!t, right?? I don't want to prepare by losing even more sleep, I want to prepare by resting up!!!!!
LOL.
Any chance you can shoot up and go back to bed on the weekends or do they make you feel funny? Or, do what I do and take a nap on the weekend. I am not a nice person without sleep!
With my first IVF we also injected early morning, and I also regretted doing that. By the second one we did the injections in the late afternoon (on my RE's advise)and it worked out much better.
