I had my niece and 3 nephews here last night and at 4am, my niece woke up vomiting. All over my beautiful plush carpet too! But I digress. Anyway, after cleaning her up and getting her back to bed, I went and took the home pregnancy test. It came up a BFN (big fat negative)… during the testing time, but 10 minutes later, there was a very faint line showing. I think during my first cycle, my first HPT was a false positive, and the test was picking up the HCG of the Pregnyl injections (even though I was actually pregnant).
I’ll probably cave and do another HPT on Wednesday or Thursday morning, just to prepare myself a little bit for the phone call from my blood test on Friday morning (either way).
Tonight was my last Pregnyl injection… yaaaaaaay! And just to remain true to form for the other injections I’ve had this cycle, it hurt like hell too. Bled a fair bit this time too. Oh well, fingers crossed it’s the last one for EVER (which will only be if I give birth to twins by the end of the year).
Did the Clinic give me a batch of dull needles? Is my skin getting thicker? Am I doing something wrong? This cycle of needles has certainly hurt more than the last cycle, and tonight’s was one of the worse. I must be holding them on an angle or more likely, my body knows what to expect this time around and is rejecting the needle before it gets close to my skin!
Either way, it doesn’t change the fact that I have to push through and give myself the injection. I don’t know how I would go if someone else was giving me the injection, that might be worse.
Thankfully, that’s my second last needle for this cycle, with the last one to come on Sunday night.
