Much better at injections this time around

My first 2 cycles giving myself injections were just awful.  It would take me forever to get up the nerve to do it, and when I finally would, I'd usually hesitate and pull back at the last minute (usually resulting in a slight puncture, but not all the way).  It became a fun little game to count the total number of needle marks I had compared to the number I should have.  I also ended up with a ridiculous number of bruises.  Not sure what I was doing wrong there.

Anyway, this time around, I have been awesome at giving myself needles.  I'm not sure what has changed, but I am able to just do it quickly with no torture...mental or physical.  I'm glad that this whole process seems to be easier the 2nd time around.  I guess all of my energy is focused on a very moody toddler :)
