Just a little pin prick

There is no pain you are receding

I expected worse.  The needle sank into my skin, the metal tip melting, disappearing, as if my belly didn't mind being penetrated.  The wince on my face wasn't warranted until I felt the sting of the liquid pouring in as I pushed the syringe and counted slowly to 10.  And then it was over.  If it wasn't for the one drop of blood that slowly bubbled up, I wouldn't have known exactly where I'd pricked.  

The prep work took the longest - 15 minutes of measuring and screwing and disolving the 1 vial of water and 4 vials of powder into a single dosage of hormones.

I'm resting now.  I'm not super moody, just lethargic.  My appetite is also waning.  I just feel kinda blah and bloated and PMSey.  I'm sure it affects everyone differently, but so far totally tolerable.
