Progesterone...Ouch!

Ok, so I need a little sympathy I guess. These shots are horrible! and to know that I have 9 weeks left! Big sigh! So today I went for a progesterone check, which was blood work to see my levels and see if they needed to adjust the amount I was taking (which is 1cc). So I get the message from the IVF nurse tonight and she says..."Kristi your levels look great, we need them to be at least 30 and your were over 80". I breathe for a second and think oh good maybe I will not have to take them anymore...WRONG! she then finishes by saying..."so keep up with your injections at 1cc everynight!."
They really were not bad at first. The needle is HUGE, the oil is thick! and honestly the first 3 or so shots were not bad. Now I guess because my butt is so sore they just really hurt. This maybe TMI, but my butt is completely bruised! yes, both cheeks, since we alternate sides. Tonight when Casey gave me my shot he said "I kind of liked giving them to you at first, it was neat, but know I just feel really bad." He is so sweet! I was hoping they would get better and maybe they will, but my poor buttocks is just so sore right now I do not see it having the opportunity to get better.
Besides my butt I am feeling good. A little cramping, but they said I would have that for about 5 days. We are both doing well, talking to my belly and our pictures everyday. Well, I talk to them all the time. I tell Casey when he gets home that I talked to the kids all day. Casey just smiles at me and ask what did you say to them?  I said you know, things like... I hope you are setting up camp in me because that is your home for the next 9 months! and things like I cannot wait to meet you, we are ready to be your parents, I love you already, I can't wait to be your mom etc...All the stuff they need to know! :)
I told Casey last night to talk to them. He said I already did, they better mind me! Hahahaha...
Well here is a picture of my needle! and my progesterone (very thick! it is in sesame oil).
