d3p3dt, bad day

First of all, I woke up at 4am this morning with a splitting headache. I do not get headaches really, almost never, so one that woke me is concerning.

Also, last night during our progesterone shot, H mentioned that it all went it so much easier than normal and there was no blood. All apparently good things.

Except that when I checked the injection site, it was really low on my butt. Weird he has done this a bunch before so I didn't think we needed a refresher.

Then I realized that the only time I ever get headaches is after a cycle when my hormone levels come crashing down. So then I put it all together and realize that the progesterone went into the fat of my ass and not the muscle. So panic ensues.

We spoke to the fellow-on-call and the nurse and they each said it is probably alright but if this doesn't take I know H will blame himself completely.

It was just one shot, right? I think you'll be o.k. When I was taking the shots, we messed up a couple here and there. It all worked out.

N, I admire how matter of factly you're able to describe this entire process. Hoping for the best...

It's possible it's just a headache, not because of the injection. I'm sure that this is not going to be the make or break element of this cycle. You are so slim, I'm not sure that even low on your bottom, that your husband could have missed the muscle with that long a needle.

Hoping very hard that everything is ok.

Must second Suz, I don't think one injection will make or break the cycle. How are you doing now? Thinking of you!!
