Feeling shitty before ER!

[Mrs. V]

Thank goodness, no more injections for me! Feel terribly bloated and crampy.
I got 20 follicles and lining is 10 mm.
Scared for the pain that follows egg retrieval tomorrow. Anyone who had an okay experience or little pain?
How bad am I really going to feel?

Hi I seemed to have quite a bit of pain but most ladies here say that they don't have too much pain.

Wishing you all the best. xo

I didn't have any pain! Admittedly it was a little uncomfortable but it definitely didn't hurt. Easier said than done but just try to relax as much as possible

I had pain and swollen abdomen following ER. I had 23 follies so I also felt shitty before ER. For me it took 3-4 days to feel better. Could not move much or walk fast or drive after ER but it was not that bad. I had problem also because my left ovary was a bit difficult to reach and the RE had to put pressure on the abdomen to move it into accessible range.

No pain for me thank God, Just a bit bloated/achey - I've had much worse period pains in the past!
I found I didn't feel great if I tried to move too quickly, but I think that's more from the Anaesthetic for 24 hrs after.
Try not to worry & hope it goes well for you. x

I've never done ER but wanted to wish you luck!
