Thanks so much Kelli, I thought I was going to pass out today at the pre opp appointment. They told us we would have to give each other injections for the next 2 weeks while are here to prevent DVT because of the flights to and from Singapore. I HATE needles so needless to say I wasn't smiling. We just did it and it wasn't to bad but a huge shock. Thanks again, see how we go over the next week and if all is good if you have some free time maybe we can catch up for coffee.

Good luck. Thinking of you both.

I gave myself injections in the tummy many times during IVF and it isn't so bad. Usually only small needles and it only pricks for second. I am sure you will be confident in it very quickly and may even find it easier to give them to yourself. I preferred that over someone else giving them to me. Good luck for tomorrow and yes I would love to meet you both for a coffee once you are up and about.

Thanks Bec

Leaving for the hospital in about 15min. Yeah almost time

Good luck Ausmith and your husband! The heparin injections really aren't a problem. You may hit a vein by accident and get a huge bruise but it isn't anything to worry about.

We are now in Lake Tyres, having left Canberra last night. On our way to Melbourne today and for the next four nights! I've been faithful with my running and have not had any problems with food. I've had several glasses of wine so far and even had some thin pizza and some nachos. The running covers a multitude of sins as I have been negative on overall calories most days! We are doing a ton of walking too. My shorts I bought for this trip (size 16) are falling off. Thank goodness for drawstrings. Hard to believe I was 5 months post-op on the 14th!
