So tonight I started injections of Bravelle and we are so far a go for our first IUI cycle. I am sooooo excited and yet nervous at the same time! The injection was a piece of cake! Didnt hurt at all! I was so proud of myself!! I am such a needle phobe and the injection was soooo easy :) So it's one injection tonight, tomorrow (wed night) and thurs night and blood test friday morning. Then we know whether or not to continue the injections over the weekend. I am soooo ready for this, I have been ready for something to happen and now here we go!! The only question I have right now is kinda silly .. I injected the meds a bit high on my belly. Does that matter? Instead of on the same level as my belly button on a bit lower, I went a bit high. Reassuring words would be good :) It was my first time and I was really nervous .. so I am thinking it will all be ok :)

its fine. try to do it on the sides or bottom of the belly botton. your meds should have pics of where. you can also do your thigh but the stomach is better.
good luck.

I was told at least two inches to the side and below the bellybutton. You'll want to switch it up so you're not hitting the same spot every time. You'll do great!

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
