Massive stomach and pain

[sarahhall7112]

Had my egg collection on Wednesday and my stomach is so sore. It feels like awful trapped wind (tmi) and it’s massive! I feel like I’ve eaten 10 baguettes! I rang the hospital and they said it’s nothing to worry about as I’ve got no other symptoms of OHSS. Anyone else had this? It’s driving me mad 😕

That’s how I felt, I was writhing around feeling the most uncomfortable I’ve ever felt and like a balloon. It went away after about 3 days so it should ease up soon. Xxx

I’m glad to hear that it’s not just me. Driving over speed bumps was horrendous! I feel like I looked 6 months pregnant x

It’s normal. I had pains for a week!

[BrightonBelle85]

OMG isn’t it the WORST?! I had EC Weds as well. I wore a baggy outfit today as was convinced people would think I was pregnant. I so wasn’t prepared for this! Good to hear others have had the same thing though and it gets better! When’s your transfer? Xx

[sarahhall7112 in reply to BrightonBelle85]

It’s either going to be today or Monday. They are going to ring this morning. I’m really nervous 😬 x

[BrightonBelle85 in reply to sarahhall7112]

Try peppermint cordial in some hot water, I had surgery to remove a Fallopian tube on Wednesday and I was given this shortly after to reduce the wind I was getting and it actually did help, just take small sips and hopefully it’ll ease the bloating. I totally get how you feel I’m still getting feelings of trapped wind and it’s actually worse than the pain from the surgery. Look after yourself xx

[sarahhall7112 in reply to lucyC1987]

Thanks for the advice x

I didn't have pain but my stomach was huge and still is super bloated. Try not to worry about it everyone gets different symptoms xxx

[abcgirl]

Yes I did. Luckily it went away after about 3 days after transfer but it was pretty painful. And it didn’t effect the transfer except it was pretty uncomfortable to have a full bladder and have someone press down on my stomach to get an ultrasound image during transfer.

Until it resolved itself, I Couldn’t lie on my side and yes felt like lots of something trapped inside that couldn’t get out.

[sarahhall7112]

That’s great thanks for your advice. Thankfully although it’s still huge, it’s a lot less sore today. I was beginning to get worried yesterday x
