oops i did it again



Like I said, oops. I was so exhausted last night after practice that I forgot to take my Lupron injection. I realized that I had forgotten it when I woke up a couple hours ago with a killer headache. I’ve still got the headache. I’m actually writing from bed at the moment. I’m waiting for my migraine medications to kick in so I can shower and head into work. I hate missing work (no sarcasm, I really do love my job).

At least once a cycle I forget to take the injection(s). As long as I take it as soon as I realize I forgot it, I’m fine.

I doubt the headache is a result of the IVF medications, I did have a few bad migraines when I was taking the birth control pills, but that is to be expected. I might be a little stressed, a little tired and a little bloated. Not fitting in pants comfortably that I fit into two weeks ago makes me cranky. The lack of caffeine can’t be helping either. I’m trying to give it up. Caffeine and soda (regular and diet). Neither are good for various reasons. I am hoping that some extra water and attending practice regularly will help with the bloat.

I’m having a therapeutic soda right now, I want the caffeine and the sugar. Only half a can though.

I just took the injection and I took some photos to post, enjoy them, please don’t judge the puffy belly, it’s partially bloat from the shots and partially the holidays. 🙂 Enjoy the photos (and my moose pj’s my mom made them)
