March/April/May 2018 IVF Buddies Community Group
Ladies going through IVF this year supporting each other through the process!
Hi ladies, I am new to this group. I am in the middle of preparing for my FET which is this coming Thursday March 22nd. I'm I'm trying to psych myself up ro do my first Pio shot. I didn't have to do them with my other FET, only the crinone gel. I'll be transferring one non-tested high quality 5-day blastocyst. I'm flying to Chicago where they are stored because I have moved to Florida since doing my IVF.IVF. looking for some ladies to chat with about where they're at in their Cycles. I used to be on fertile thoughts, but there doesn't seem to be much activity there with March Cycles, so here I am. Good luck to everyone!
Where in Florida are you living? I live in FL too.
I would ask your doctor to prescribe some lidocaine cream. That’s what I used. I put it on about an hour or so before my shot time and then used plastic wrap and medical tape to keep the cream in place while I went about my business. Don’t rub the cream in, just let it sit on top, about a penny size amount should do it. I don’t even feel them.
My husband doesn’t like needles, but he just focused and did the dart like motion and it was over before he knew it and I didn’t feel it at all. He was actually more gentle than my nurse friend who did the first one.
Hopefully he can try again.
Stay strong.
Positive thoughts and prayers ♡♡
