mummy2 - i don't find i bruise from the injections at all (well, no more than twice in 4 cycles) - i find putting immediate pressure on the injection site after the needle and gently massaging helps to disburse the injection. sorry i can't give more advice than that! i've always done my own injections, so honestly not sure if it would make a difference if someone else did it.

as for folliw/egg count, i'd probably be hoping for quality over quantity - 10 is a good count, although, as Blayz can confirm, the number really doesn't matter - you want good eggs that have a high fertilisation rate - i think the norm is for a few to not fertilise - and not all will be high quality if the DO fertilise - so aim for 10+ high quality eggies. i guess unless you head toward OHSS (which you can get even with a low egg count), you're going to go through the same process no matter how many eggs, so it's better to get more in each stim cycle and end up with snow bubba's...

good luck to you both
