do the shots get easier?

Gave myself the first shot last night and my tummy still hurts? Does this get better the more you do it?

Chat Icon what shot? The only one that bothered me was lovenox because you bruise easily. I do find they are easier to administer after awhile. I do 3 a day now. The prefilled ones are fine. The ones you mix and change needles are annoying. I feel like an addict with all the stuff layed out.

I did the Bravelle last night. The needle is small but, I had to mix everything and it took forever. The thing is the injection site still hurts me and its the day after.

definitely they get easier and hurt less! you'll learn to love some shots (like follistim cuz the needle's so small and it's so easy to inject) and hate others, but even the bad ones like lovenox arent so bad after a while. you'll get thereChat Icon

I think you get used to them. Or at least I did. Lovenox didn't bother me but I don't get bruised from it

I think the days I don't think about it and just do it are easier than others.

ITA... Occasionally i get a bad shot where it hurts but that seems to be the exception way more than the rule....

It does become second nature. I take lovenox daily and I hate it, but it is what it is. If it keeps me preggo ill do anhythiing!

I agree about it becoming second nature... I have done inject while sitting at booths while out at dinner.. and in the car... etc.. I just do it without thinking. (well... DID IT without thinking Chat Icon ) and to be honest, when I stopped my injects there was a twisted part of me that sort of missed it. Yea, I can't figure that one out either.......
