OHSS

Hello ladies.
I am in so much pain. This is my third fresh IVF cycle and each time they told me that I hyperstimulated but none of them was as painful as this time. I can hardly walk it hurts to sneeze. My stomach is so sore. The weird thig about this is that I produced less eggs this cycle than any of the other cycles. They only retrieved 13 eggs. During my first one hey got 26 eggs and my second one they retrieved 31 eggs. I dont understand. Why is it so painful this time around.
I just receieved the info that of the 13 10 of them were mature and 10 of them were fertilized. I am just hoping all continues to go well wih my embies. Transfer will be on Sunday or tuesday depending on if we transfer on day 3 or 5. If I have anyy extra embies unfortunately i wont be able to freeze any because i will have to pay $1000 out of pocket and i am unable to come out of pocket with that rigth now so i am praying that this is my time to become a mommy.

im so sorry you feel so sick. i dont know what advise to give you except to rest rest rest and drink gatorade.
when i had ohss, i got it the same day i got a bfp , 11 days post retrieval ( 33 eggs), i started to feel bloated, pants did not fit and then the pain started.
the cure is rest, lay at home and drink gatorade, as long as you pee clear and dont throw up you should be ok.

I am so sorry you are in pain. I too developed OHSS three times....it does get better. Just keep care of yourself and keep track of your health. A sick Mama womb is not so good. Like Mamamando says, rest up and drink that gatorade. Oh and eat all the salty foods you can get your hands on. Should help with the swelling.

I feel bad it\'s so painful this time around. I agree with the other ladies, lots of Gatorade and vitamin water. Really take it easy and hopefully it\'s gets better soon. Praying for more good news with your embies!

Ohss is so unfair! As if we didn\'t have enough pain already with our infertility! Hope your body heals quickly!
