So tomorrow is a big step in the surrogacy journey. A BIG step. And I'm a little freaked out.
I have to start injections tomorrow.
Me..
The girl who's scared to death of needles..
Injecting myself.
What did I get myself into???
I mean, granted.. I've been pregnant twice now. I've gotten stuck plenty of times. Getting poked for bloodwork has almost (almost) become a non-event to me. My fear of needles and absolute and utter horror at getting shots and blood drawn has become pretty tame after two pregnancies and all this pre-surrogacy testing. But that's when someone else is doing it to me. I don't have to watch that!
This, I have to do to myself. I have to pinch my skin (my belly skin.. not a fun place to get a shot!) I have to put the needle in my skin and inject the medicine. I have to do this for the next.. 14 days.
I don't see myself being a very happy camper for the next 2 weeks. Someone better find me a good place to hide from the world so I don't kill someone.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha..........................................
(sigh)
