Comedy of Errors

We started stimming tonight, and boy was it a disaster! I don't know how other people are doing it, but we have to mix a Bravelle (75IU) and Menopur (150IU) cocktail with 1ml saline. First, the Q-cap didn't seem to fit properly onto the syringe. After trying a second syringe with the same result, we just decided to go with it. My husband pulled out the saline but was upset because there was a big air bubble in the syringe. Mixing went fine, but when it came time to detach the Q-cap and attach the needle (which also didn't seem to fit right), we had lost about 0.1ml of liquid. He started to push the plunger to get rid of all the air, and before all the air came out, a bunch of liquid shot out. We still have no idea how that happened since it looked like nothing but air on top. Finally, he got the remaining bubble out, and all that was left was about 0.75ml. The shot itself burned like hell going in, way worse than Lupron shots. Definitely going to be calling the clinic tomorrow to ask about this Q-cap, needle, and syringe situation. I don't remember it being a problem when we had our meds teaching back in March. Maybe we need another lesson. Can at least just ONE thing about getting pregnant be easy for us??? All right, enough complaining.

We had our friends (now also our new neighbors) over for dinner tonight with their almost 10 month old. He is so freakin' cute, and watching him play on our floor made me very excited at the thought that maybe, just maybe, we'll have one of our own in 9 months!
