Hi Anyos!

I just finished my first round of IVF and the needles were not that bad.

A few tips

- ice the area ( I never had time for this in the morning, but a GF of mine did and it worked for her)

- I did my injecting slowly (as in pushing the needle part in the skin) some people jab it in, but that hurts more in my opinion.

- I also pushing the fluid in slowly, I find that hurts less.

the 1st time you *do it* make sure someone is there that can take over... just incase

and if all else fails, keep your partner around too tell you "I told you you wouldn't be able to do it" - thats what worked for me!
