First IVF cycle
Well, this whole cycle has not really gone as planned - first my period was late and therefore my work schedule and IVF schedule clashed BIG time. I had a ton of s/e from all of the medications - mood swings, weight gain, anxiety. Yesterday I had my ER - 21 eggs, 15 mature, and 14 fertilized. I am happy that we have so many available to work with, but I am so uncomfortable even at rest and in absolute pain with any activity (standing, walking, bending etc.) This is all so frustrating and I just pray and pray that this pays off in the end because I've never been through something in my life that made me so miserable.
Sorry ladies - just venting!

Hey sweetie. 14 is such a great number. I am so sorry u r in pain. Im actually just starting to feel better so I understand completely. I was told that rest, alot of gatorade and salty foods will help.
Thanks - I\'m getting so tired of being on the couch - my hubby helped do some cookie baking today to take my mind off of things. Drinking as much gatorade as I can - it is so tough when I feel so giant/full in my abdomen already. I have now gained 15 lbs since the start of this...SO frustrating.
