I need help...

This is all happening so fast!

Short story... we are having our IVF egg transfer on Tuesday!  Unfortunately, DH will be out of town for work.  I already have someone lined up to drive me to/from the clinic.

What I need help with are the progesterone shots.  I need them done between 6am-8am on Wednesday and Thursday in my hip (so I cannot do them myself).  I live near Speer and Washington.  Anyone want to volunteer to jab me?  I can pay!!!  And there is a video I can show you to "teach" you.  If Matt can do it, anyone can do it Wink

Long story... we planned to do our egg retrieval this cycle, then freeze the eggs while genetic testing was being done.  Egg transfer would then happen in April.  My body decided to ovulate on its own, even though I was taking meds to prevent ovulation.  So, we lost some (four) eggs and only got two in the transfer.  Genetic testing has been canceled since we don't want to risk freezing two eggs and the transfer is happening on Tuesday if the eggs grow the amount they need to!  Since we didn't plan on egg transfer this cycle, that is why Matt will be out of town for work (and since he is the only one working in this family, he shouldn't really cancel the trip).  

Once in a while you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

Re: I need help...

  • I wish I could help, but I live really far away. Good luck, though, and sending lots of TPJ!!!

  • I live in LoHi.  I think there are others who are better to help (Todds Wife?)  but I can keep the bench warm so you don't have to worry. 
  • Darn, I wish I wasn't so far away, I'd totally volunteer (and we all know I love giving shots Wink).  I hope there's someone close by who can help you out! 
  • I'm such a wimp I would be awful to do the shots, I would probably pass out. Sad Please let me know if there is anything else I can do though, meals, a ride or just support! I'll be there in a heartbeat!

  • I'd like to help but I take the big boys to school next week, so I'd have to meet you somewhere West...not sure if that would work.

  • I can come and help you. It'd have to be between 7 and 7:30, and Thursday I will have DD with me. If that is ok, then I would be happy to do it.

  • Phewph, I'm glad Andrea can help you.  I was going to say you could come to our house (which isn't too far from you), but I'm not sure I can do it. I can give myself and have given my dog Sub-Q shots, but I don't think I am cut out for giving IM shots. 

    Also, I'm going to be replying to our PM thread about a related bit of news.....

    That would be wonderful and so helpful!  Thank you, thank you, thank you!  The RE said the shot needs to be given 2 hours before bloodwork time and that time you can do it is perfect!

    I'm PMing you my address.
