And in case anyone is interested, here is everything they gave us.
This is what the meds look like in their little vials. We will use 2 blue ones and 1 red one in every injection. We'll use needle #1 (see below) to pull the liquid out of the red bottle, and inject it down into the first blue one. Then pull all of that one out, and inject into the second blue one. Then switch needles and we're ready to go!
This is needle #1 - the one we'll be using when we do the mixing. Thank goodness this is not going in me!
This is needle #2, the one we'll use for the injection. It's still long, but much thinner. Jason will have to insert the entire needle part, not just the tip like I was hoping.
And here is the fun diagram of where it goes. We'll switch butt cheeks daily - oh boy.
I think Jason is looking forward to it entirely way too much. They told him to hold it like a dart and now he wants to draw a bulls eye on my ass and try from across the room.

So glad to hear that everything looked good today! LOL re: Jason and his dart throwing. :) Maybe you should get him a dart board to practice on first! ;)
Yay! If it makes you feel any better I once had to get a muscle relaxer shot into my butt right in that area, and it really doesn't hurt because it's mostly fat. At least on me it is. :)
I HATE those type of vials!!!!!! I always feel like I'm going to cut myself when I break them open (although, note that I have yet to do so). Good luck - tell Jason to be sure he does everything fast - it'll hurt less (I think). :) Tell Jason dartboard practice goes both ways and you call dibs on the skinny needles. :)
"That doesn't have to mean twins, it just gives us a better shot." No pun intended, right? Ha ha.
Also, I will be laughing all day about that weird butt drawing with the X-marks-the-spot.
Glad your u/s was all clear and the shots are going OK! :-)
