One Step Closer

Trigger is done!

The RE had suggested triggering around 10pm last night.  I was pretty sure I could do it myself (I had toyed with the idea of asking my mom to help since my H is terrified by even the thought of needles and couldn't help).  But, I watched a few youtube videos, and talked to some amazing friends who have been there, and thought I could do it.  H actually stayed in the room with me.  He closed his eyes the entire time, but he put a hand on my back for support (I love that man).

And you know what?

It really was no big deal.  I pinched the skin, stuck the needle in, injected the medication, and didn't feel a darn thing.  It's actually more tender now than it was then.  So it's done!  And I'm actually feeling better about the timing of this cycle than I was yesterday.  My CM changed to watery over the course of yesterday and my temp this morning is back in my normal pre-O range.  Who knows if it's real or not (if I do another medicated cycle I promise not to temp), but it makes me feel better.  I think that has to count for something.

In other news:  I lost another 1.4 pounds on WW this week.  That makes 4 pounds so far.  Only 16 to go!
