Done with the pill

I am officially done with taking the birth control...after 5 weeks!  Woohoo!  I will not miss taking that silly little pill each day.  I'm 6 days into Lupron as of this morning.  I had a couple of mornings with a great amount of redness at the injection site but that seems to have cleared up.  My boobs are sore and I feel bloated too.  At least I haven't had any severe side effects that could come along with it.

As ready as I am to move forward with everything that comes along with IVF, I also realize that I am getting more nervous about it.  I'm not necessarily nervous about the shots or procedures themselves.  I am more worried about if it doesn't work.  We get 3 attempts covered by insurance and that is all we are doing.  It's scary to think that this could be it in our injertility journey.  Of course I am hoping and praying for positive results but part of me can't help but be worried about the future.
