Well done hope


AFm - well ladies moderate ohss has hit me my stomach is very sore I lookk 7 months pregnant ! They wanted to admit me last night but I wanted to be home with kids but I have to go for scan this morning if ovaries are bad and there's too much fluid then I'll be admitted ! My blood results were fine they just worried about my stomach at the moment !

Am feeling a mixture of emotions like why didn't the clinic mimic my last cycle why did they let me trigger with hcg ? Why haven't they put me on anything for ohss feel abit mad but I'll havenit out with them later

Hope everyone else is okay xx

Hope-good job!

Betty-I am so sorry. OHSS is one of my fears and dr said we are going to be careful that I don't get it how's your pAin? Does this change your fresh transfer? What medicines are you in now? My sister had it pretty bad and had to have drains put in and sent her home with them.

Just trigger with lupron at 11 last night. Egg retreviL at 9 am tomorrow morning! Kind of feel anxious that I have no shots or doctor appointments today. Feels weird. Haha

Have a good day ladies!

[ttcbaby117]

Aww betty so sorry hun! You are so right, what is that clinic thinking! I mean with 44 eggs! Anyway, I understand your frustration. Just rest up and get better. Let us know how you are doing!

Waiting - How exciting! Its crazy how quickly we get used to the shots, b/w etc! enjoy today.

Hope - how you feeling post EC x

 

[N8ie]

Betty- I'm sorry to hear about the ohss, my dr was worried about me but I took advice of drinking lots of water, prune juice and electrolyte drinks and even had McD salty fries (I hate mcD but that helped a lot) my tummy is back to its normal size and I'm feeling like my old self except for the mild constipation. My transfer is tomorrow morning, I'm excited and sad (that the journey is coming to an end, I'm not sure you know what I mean) I pray the embryo(s) stick and get a BFP in the couple of weeks. I will pray you feel better my dear, that your body heals

Waiting- I'm excited for you. All the best for tomorrow morning. and update us please.

Ttc- I'm back to my normal self, thank God. Thanks for asking

Look after yourself Betty.... I hope it passes quickly. TBH I was surprised that with 44 collected they were happy to go ahead with the transfer.... My clinic cancelled my transfer after they collected 16 - to be on the safe side. Thankfully and luckily I was fine - didn't get OHSS so I am thinking of you and wishing you a speedy recovery. Those little embryos will be waiting for you when you are healthy and ready

Good luck for tomorrow Waiting - I'm so excited for you!! x

 

[Hopethisyear]

Betty - I'm sorry you are in so much pain and in the hospital now. I hope they can get you back to normal soon. Your embies sound like they are doing great though, so that is awesome.

Waiting - Yay for ER tomorrow! Drink lots of water today and keep your body hydrated so you don't go into the procedure dehydrated. Then have gatorade, a heating pad and tylenol ready for after the procedure when you get home. Plan on just taking it easy for the rest of the day and drink lots of liquids. Good luck and I hope they get lots of eggies!

N8ie - Glad you are feeling better!!

AFM - I wrote about my experience yesterday in my journal. But it pretty much comes down to SUPER pain after ER, then got meds & felt great went out to lunch and then the pain meds must have wore off because I felt horrible yesterday afternoon. It hurt to walk, but my heating pad saved me. I'm working from home today to give my body a chance to recuperate and I'm so thankful for that. I'm also anxiously awaiting my fertilization report which they will be calling me with today. I start PIO injections tonight and I am so not looking forward to them.

 

[KrissyB]

Congrats Hope! 14 is a great number! FXed for great fertilization and growth over the next few days.

Betty- Sorry abou tthe OHSS and the questionable doctor's care. Hope you get some relief soon.

Waiting - Good luck tomorrow!

AFM - After 5-6 downregulated weeks, I forgot what having hormones is like LOL. And unfortunately I forgot how achey my endo is. Oh well, I'll get used to it again with time. Ticking down the days til Transfer!

 

[ttcbaby117]

betty - Glad you are resting up and comfortable. Please let us know what your results are....chest xray and bloods! praying you can get out of there soon!

N8 - Glad to hear you are feeling better!

Hope - sorry you are having pain, but awesome you can work from home! Fxed for your fert report...when will you get it?

Krissy - are you doing a FET?

Happy weekend everyone!

 

[waitingongod1]

I am doing well, in pain tonight, think these eggies are just ready to come out! Also definitely been feeling the constipation these past few days and from reading your post it looks like it is going to get worse. Just sent hubby out for prune juice haha
My doctor actually prescribed pain medicine for after retrieval tomorrow, so hopefully won't be in too much pain.. Seems like he wants me to limit activity until transfer, I am really hoping for a fresh one!

Hope everyone is doing well! I will update when I can tomorrow of how many eggs I got!

 

[KrissyB]

TTC - Yep! My first ivf transfer! Should be scheduled for July 7th

 

[ttcbaby117]

Oh that's wonderful! Ill be right behind you. I will be starting around the 22nd of July!

 

[Hopethisyear]

Waiting - you are so lucky your Dr prescribed you pain meds. Mine said absolutely nothing except tylenol. Good luck tomorrow & keep us posted.

Krissy & TTC - Yay for scheduled transfer dates!!!!

I just got an email from my nurse and out of 14 eggs, 11 were mature and of those 9 fertilized. I'm absolutely thrilled we have that many so far. I know they won't all make it to blasts but I'm praying we get a few.

 

[waitingongod1]

hope- great news!

ttc and krissy- yah! dates now so the countdowns begin for you ladies!
