Thankyou Skybie for that tip too. I got through the first two times now it is for today. It didnt hurt as much as what I thought it would, yet the needle size they have given is 6mm not 5mm. Apparently it the company they use. hugs

Natwantsababy - Wow hun, thankyou but honestly what I am going through is nothing compared to what you are. I hope your little bub sticks really well sweety and you get to bring this bub home. i cant imagine how scared you are, with the tumors and the possibility of losing your much wanted bub. Know that we all here will be thinking of you and wishing you all the very best of outcomes and your take home baby. Please keep coming n here and letting us know how everything is going with you. hugs

Crumpet - Thanks hun, it actually didnt end up turning out as bad as what i thought, thankfully. I think it is the thought of it, but once I get the hang of it and in a routine, I think it will be fine. GL with your GD test today, let us know how you go. Enjoy your u/s on Monday too, my next one is the following week. hugs

I had a bit of a scare last night it. I was worried I may be going into labour there for a while. I oke up in the middle of the night for the usual pee stops, and by the time I got back to bed I just couldnt get comfy. No matter which way I layed down whether on my left side, right side or even on my back I felt like I couldnt breathe and the tightenings didnt let up. It was continuous accompanied with a dull lower back ache. it lasted for approx an hour. Im thinking that it may have something to do with the needles, maybe it stirred something up. I noticed yesterday after giving the injections bub went a tad hypo for a little while. Anyhow still got a bit of tightenings, and the dull back ache has started to return, so will be keeping an eye on it today and taking it easier. At least the tightening isnt constant atm.
