LuckyStrike, did you conceive on a fresh cycle? Chances are that it's ovary swelling that's making you a bit bloated, especially if you've just done a stim cycle. I had a mild case of OHSS with my BFP (sure as hell beats being hospitalised with it bad and not getting to transfer!), and kind of instantly swelled up. I had to go from size 12 pants to size 14 pants bang on 4 weeks. They were loose, but comfortable. My size didn't really change again until I was closer to 13-14 weeks though. As the ovaries went down, my uterus took over.
Looks like we have some good news on my iron levels. I had blood taken on Tuesday, my OB said she'd call if my iron levels were bad again, and I was told the results would be in on Thursday. I'd say at 10:30pm on Friday night and no phone call at all, things are at least looking better! Now if I could just fix this head cold.
Possums - ignore the blood tests. Focus on the scans. Hang in there!
