Congrats myturn on being PUPO :-)
posted in wrong place sorry
I have the most terrible bloating in my stomach..., not my abdomen. Much higher than that.
It hurts. FS at ET said its the hormones and I should watch for any nausea....
I feel very uncomfortable and sorry for myself.... But told myself I was going to be positive... I finding it a bit tricky..... Has anyone had OHSS and know what it feels like...? I'm thinking maybe I've got a bit but would feel reassured to know its not going to get worse. I've got to take the pregnyl ttomorrow and Dr google is telling me that can make it worse... Of course I'm going to take it still!!! But please pray that it doesn't get more painful..... Im
an unhappy chappy right now..,.
Sneaking in to say, yes I have Myturn. That's how it started for me. Are you taking pregnyl?
eta - yes, you are! It will make it worse. Contact your clinic and ask their advice. Also watch your daily weight gain.
Hi myturn,
I had OHSS. It started with the same kind of bloating upper abdo - I have only done one egg collection cycle so I'm not sure what the pain is like post pick up for people who don't get OHSS if that makes sense... I had bad pain around my uterus and also the upper abdo, FS put me on panadeine forte.
You've gotten way further than me - I wasn't allowed to have a fresh transfer - because of the OHSS. I never got any nausea which is what I was also told to look out for - just the pain and swelling.
It settled down after about 3 days. My FS told me to drink lots of water and stay off my feet for a few days. The reason my cycle was cancelled was because FS didn't want me to have the pregnyl (at the time I wished I had just shut my mouth and not said anything, sucked up the pain so my cycle didn't get cancelled). In hindsight he would've seen the swelling and cancelled me anyway I reckon!
Good luck - fingers crossed it doesn't become OHSS and this is your lucky cycle. My only advice is if your worried - dont necessarily wait for the nausea before calling your clinic - that's what I did and the nausea didn't come..

Myturn I've had mild OHSS both fresh cycles. This last time I had stomach pain and bloating and I was also throwing up. My FS wasn't too concerned but was happy to see me if I was worried. I was on Digesic tablets from EPU to help with the OHSS. I had 24 at EPU. My pain was "manageable" with the digestic, panadol and a heatpack.
They tell you to get heaps of protein. Things like nuts etc... Also if you can get yourself some Hospital grade sustagen as that has a high protein content. Also drink heaps of water they like you to have 2-3 litres from memory. I hate water so always struggled with that.
Thanks ladies ....
I rang the nurse and she said.... Yes.... I have to take the pregnyl.... To late to swap now.... And I should expect it to get worse..(great). I need to monitor and if I feel nauseous at all to call them and they will have to speak to the dr.
Told me to drink lots of water... And high fibre to 'stay regular'.
Here's hoping it's manageable for the next couple of weeks...
I appreciate all your words of wisdom ;)
Myturn rest up and I hope it doesn't get any worse for you, I remember the pain I was in last time and it sounds no where near yours. Hope DH is home with you and is looking after you xo
Hi to everyone else, have a great weekend :-)
myturn - ive had ohss too, spent a night in hospital to monitor pain (bc I fainted... i'm a weakling!). take care though, it can get pretty uncomfortable. don't hesitate to nag your nurses if it gets too much. xx
I hope you're feeling better soon myturn and not much worse after the pregnyl :hug: Rest as much as you can hun xoxo
I actually feel better today... Probably the pregnyl will kick in in a couple of days. But for now. Not too bad. Tha
nks lovelies xxx

:hello: Sarah4Kurt
well girls - was doing okay until dinner, and I am feeling nice and super bloated again.... realised I actully didn't have lunch today and i think eating less helped reduce the bloating... maybe I need to keep the portions nice and small so I can cope, but am feeling it again tonight... it has got worse in the evenings, so I might watch that and be careful with dinners....
hmmm.... anyway... it's made me forget to be obsessed with the embie inside me and focus on all the OHSS possibilities... lol....
just tapping my fingers and waiting.....
all I can say is oh.my.god.... waaaa.....:cry:
my belly looks like this..... :pregnant:....which is pretty difficult at my weight.....
..... I guess I should be thankful that I am not nauseous......
............. .............. ................ and as much as I was glad to have the pregnyl this time..... I think I'll be jumping back on the crinone bandwagon if I have to do this again.... don't feel like we will even get any BDing in this TWW anyway!....
which especially sucks as it is our 1st wedding anniversary on the 30th.... maybe we will be lucky and wednesday's pregnyl shot will have left my system by then.....
ps... have I mentioned that if this one is 'it'..... it's due date is both my dad AND my stepdaughters birthdays......
seriously.....it better be early or late.....
Myturn - Oh hun sounds like you have had a sucky day of it all.
If this is the one for you then I hope it doesn't come on everyone's birthdays and it gets one all of its own ;-)
Rest up and feel better soon, when is your bt?
2nd august......
AGESssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssss.................................
Oh my turn, I hope the bloating goes down soon!
I was quite bloated this cycle (never had that in the previous ones) I didn't have any pain but I was quite nauseous & I couldn't each much either(not a bad thing;) )
Myturn - I might be good luck for you cause that's my birthday :-)))
I am slowly losing the will to live...... Can't ttell if i
am sore, hungry, nauseous or something else......
DH wants me to take tomorrow off work.... I've just got so much to catch up on.... :( :(
Oh no Myturn poor you:( there is nothing worse than feeling crap! Maybe a day of rest will help you feel better? Can you do any of your work at home?
Maybe.... But I'd need to go to the office to get files and laptop etc to write the reports...
Waaa.... Will see how I feel iin the morning and might pop into nurse at the clinic and have a chat too.
It's hard to be positive when my belly feels like it will explode..., and one of the girls asked if I was okay too.... :( (she knows... But doesn't know.... If that makes sense...)
Seriously I hope being pregnant doesn't feel like this!!
HI My Turn ;)... hate to break it to ya but yes being preg is like that lol...
lots of bloat and feeling nausius or hungry at the same time being hard to tell! lol it doesnt get better gosh jolly gee xoxoxo
... im a little ray of sunshine aren't i?;)
well i hope your prg and its all for a good reason :-) :goodluck::bluedust:
.... i'm 3DPO today .. yay! .... i think i will POAS next monday 30th .... get it over with this time lol.... im giving me :pink-babydust: in the hopes it works lol
and heres some for all you lovely ladies also as we need it!!.... :pink-babydust::bluedust: xoxoxoxo
Myturn I am sending you one of my big bear hugs (being careful not to squish your sore tummy...)
I think you might need that day of rest tomorrow, we women dont listen to our bodies enough when it needs rest. Rest up and look after yourself and your little embie on board xo
Thanks lovelies. Sarah I think I knew it is a simar feeling! Just hoping its not so sore in the early days at leadt' although if I am UTD then apparantly it can take a while for OHSS to disappear...
Ker I'm grabbing the hug nice and tight xxx
:-)))))
Dr is giving me the rest of the week off and I have to go into clinic again tomorrow for the nurse to check on me :(
So glad I went to see her today. I feel better for doing that. Told me to have panadine for the pain and drink lots and monitor myself.
Cried in my bosses shoulder when I told her I'd had a reaction to meds and felt awful. She thought I was coming to tell her I was pregnant. :(
Hi all,
Technically I am in here again.... No hope whatsoever this cycle. I think I o'ed on Sunday night (going by pain and ewcm - positive seratec that morning). TMI but DP and I BDed on Sunday morning but haven't since. Was planning on jumping him last night but couldnt be stuffed lol.
I had my NK biopsy rescheduled to next Monday when I will get all my prescriptions for my new wonder supplements from my new FS. I have read a lot of women who have repeated IVF failure have natural success while on them. I am hoping I become one of them :lol:
Take care myturn. OHSS is a biatch! Do you still have another pregnyl shot to go?
I am hoping you are one of the successes too xxx
Thanks. I feel like such a sook. No more pregnyl the nurse spoke with my FS while I was there and they have arranged for pessaries to start tomorrow. If it gets worse he might admit me to hospital for monitoring. Not sure it's that bad. But I'm feeling pretty sorry for myself.
In hospital they might drain the fluid.
Google ascites.
Yeah... Dr google told me that too ;)
Glad to head you have the rest of the week off myturn, hope you don't end up in hospital :-(. Thinking of you..rest up xo
Take it easy myturn, all this pain better be for something!! lol xox
thanks miss b....
so.... sitting on the couch today..... thinking about getting out some reports to write later today...
but just thinking about it... lol....
Jo (nurse) is happy with how I 'appear' to be feeling today, she said I don't look so pale (didn't realise I looked that bad).... so she will pass along to FS and let me know what he thinks..... had to weigh myself when I got home (forgot this morning)... and realised I've put on 1kg in 24 hours.... could be nothing of course, and definitely the fluid rather than my weight per se.... just not a nice feeling to watch it going up, and very little I can do ....
of course... the fish and chips I just ate probably don't help:rolleyes:.... but..... I wanted it and it was good :redface:
Ahhhh....an update on your condition!!! ;)
Yeah, weight gain was something they monitored closely with me. I think I mentioned I put on five kilos in a matter of a few days. All went away very quickly when I got over the OHSS (a couple of days after my BT).
I've put on 4 kg in the last 2 weeks.... some is not from the OHSS... maybe just the drugs in general (and no exercise)... but since ET it's only 2.... so hopefully no more and it will start reducing....
I have to start taking Crinone tonight instead of doing the pregnyl shot...
so that means..... Crinone inspired vajayjay on our wedding anniversary on monday..... :rolleyes:..... great..... that's if I would be able to 'do anything' anyway....
at this stage, the whole point of not doing crinone (which for me, was missing intimacy during the TWW which made me feel more separate from DH and it was difficult).... seems a bit of a moot point now.... cause there still isn't any, anyway... doh....
although DH has been lovely and worried about me... cooking dinner every night and sitting close on the couch (usually he will sit at his end, and i will go down there, but I have noticed he has been sitting closer to me this week)....
just feeling so overwhelmed with it all......
Crinone wouldnt stop me iykwim!!! Also, you can put it in after (iykwim again)....
we will see how we go..... I did think of putting it in after.... we haven't tried when i've been on the crinone.... will see how my belly feels, and hopefully ;)
am SOOOOO..... glad FS has given me as much time off work as I like!! at this stage I have taken this week (as I have rec leave monday and tuesday anyway...) so hopefully belly reduces a bit by then... if not... then depending on how I feel, I may take more time off....
emotionally I just feel so much better for knowing I'm not being silly and I'm not crazy or imagining things...
I thought I was at first. I just thought it was bad indigestion or wind or something.... But then after a day or two and my stomach was rock hard (never happens!!!) and I felt like I was pregnant. SO uncomfortable! I was short of breath and waddling and just felt yuck!
You are not imagining it!
