At 8:40 last night I started mixing everything up. The Novarel powder took longer to dissolve than the Bravelle did. Gentle twisting on a flat surface did not do the trick, I ended up having the raise the vial to the light and turn gently side to side to get the last of the powder off the bottom. R did the injection. I stood in our kitchen leaning slightly against a bar stool and we counted to 3. On 3 the needle was in and I thought, oh that wasn't bad at all. After the injection it did get a little sore, and it turns out R forgot to check for blood before injecting, so that could be why. It feels like a mild bruise below the injection site today but it really isn't as bad as I expected. I imagine that once I have a whole bunch of PIO injections it will be worse, but I am very relieved the needle didn't hurt.
Less than 24 hrs until egg retrieval!!
