LTTTC Two Week Wait 2012 # 5

[myturn]

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

Take care myturn. OHSS is a biatch! Do you still have another pregnyl shot to go?

[myturn]

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.

[nothing2lose]

In hospital they might drain the fluid.

Google ascites.

[myturn]

Yeah... Dr google told me that too

[kerbear]

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

[Miss.B]

Take it easy myturn, all this pain better be for something!! lol xox

[myturn]

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....

[myturn]

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.... but..... I wanted it and it was good

[nothing2lose]

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).

[myturn]

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..... ..... 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......

[nothing2lose]

Crinone wouldnt stop me iykwim!!! Also, you can put it in after (iykwim again)....

[myturn]

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...

[nothing2lose]

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!

[myturn]

that's exactly how I feel....

I thought, being overweight, I could 'hide' it for a while at work...... but they did notice.... I could see when they looked at me.....

then it just hurt too much and I couldn't do it anymore....

[myturn]

so.... seeing I can't share with anyone I know... and complain about how ridiculous I look... I've decided that you lovelies get to see the photo... figured that if this one sticks, it will be a funny joke... one day....

clearly there's usually a bit of a belly there anyway..... but this 'wonder woman' top (another irony...) is usually quite loose down the front.....

O.M.G......
