Post retrieval
I'm two days now post retrieval. 15 mature eggs with 14 fertilized. Exciting but the bloating after has been the worst for me. Pretty sure I looked about 4 months pregnant yday. Also constipated but assured these are common side affects as long as I'm not sick and retaining fluids. So now I wait it out but I'm so uncomfortable. This whole process is such a waiting game but worth it in the end.

You\'ll likely feel much better in another 2 days or so. For me, the phase you\'re in right now was the worst bit. More uncomfortable than all the stims, way more uncomfortable than the transfer. And yes, the waiting is the worst! Have lots of salty soup and keep hydrating yourself! I know... it\'s the last thing you want to do when you\'re feeling so bloated, but it truly does help. :)
Congrats on such a great retrieval number! I wish mine had been that good!
Thanks! I\'m already feeling better which is good! Got good news about my fertilized embryos so the waiting continues to see what they are like on day 5. Bc of over stim I\'m waiting until early jan to transfer. It\'s so nerve racking. I want it to work out so bad.
