My hubby is going out of town soon so I will have to do them myself also. Maybe I'll give it a try sooner since you say it hurt a little less :O) did you do the progesterone shots the whole time or did they ever switch you to something like crinone or pills once you were preggo?
Sore backside-ouch :O)

Who can relate?? I started my progesterone shots in my backside and have done about 4 of them, two on each side. Boy is it getting sore :O) It will all be worth it with a BFP!!!! My nurse suggested warming a cloth in the microwave and placing it on the injection site and rubbing it for a few minutes after, I think that helps a bit.
They actually let me quit the shot right when I got my bfp hcg levels..b/c my progesterone was so high. I am infact going to start the progesterone pill in 2 wks at wk 16 and take til wk 37 tho. I've had one premie baby..and they hope this will help cut my odds down a bit. I guess studies show that increasing prog levels..even tho fine from 16-37 wks can cut premie rates by 1/3 or so in women who are at risk :)
