Just sharing my thoughts on motherhood, marriage, teaching high school English, natural hair, weight loss and weight gain and life... the highs, the lows, the good, the bad, and the mommy!...it's just me being me...take a look and see...you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll shake your head and sigh...and maybe just maybe, you'll learn something that you didn't know you needed to know.

I'm such a big baby!
I am sitting in my office at school wiping tears from my eyes and I sit on hold with the pharmacy to refill my PIO prescription. Why am I crying?! Because my ASS HURTS!!! I love my DH and I have to keep saying that every time I sit down, stand up, walk or try to bend. On top of all the lumps and bruising from the PIO shots, last night DH hit a vein or nerve and didn't say anything, he just kept on with the injection, and I am in agony. Nothing works! The hot pack, ice, tylenol, nothing, nada, zilch. So I called the RE's office last night because I realized I'm almost finished with the PIO and since I'm in so much pain can I switch to an alternative. Here come the water works, as long as my progesterone levels stay consistent I need to stay on the PIO shots. Sorry, she said. As far as any tricks to minimize the pain, she told me I'm doing everything right: icing beforehand, heating afterward, the dart method, the twisting method, massaging area after, walking around...I've even tried warming up the PIO in my bra beforehand, and still I have a golfball sized lump on my right cheek and complete and total pain on the left cheek. The only way they would switch it to the suppositories (which are a smaller dose of medication) is if the doctor approves my levels after Monday's scan. **Sigh** The things we do for love, right?!!
