Stimming

I think I’m getting my first symtoms of my stimms.

Feeling like bubbling on both sides - can anyone relate?

I don’t have that but have my first stimming symptoms today too! I’m day 7 of stimming. Had slight twinges this weekend over my ovaries. Felt slightly period painy. But now aching constantly in my right and left lower abdomen. And feeling a sense of fullness there like I’ve a couple of grapefruits there. Hopefully it means my ovaries are nice and active!! Good luck xx

I’m on day 4 of stimms and I’m feeling popping. That’s what I’m hoping mine are also active. I have a scan tomorrow so fingers crossed we have lots of follicles x

No experience yet but I should start stimming sometime this week (providing my baseline scan confirms down regging on Thursday) so it's great to learn what symptoms I might experience! Good luck with your cycle x

I’m on day 8, feel a little bloated and have awful nausea. The tiredness is killing me too! So tired by mid day!

When’s your scan? Had my first one since stims today! Good luck!

I have my first scan tomorrow and another one on Saturday... I start cetrodide tomorrow! I’m ok with tiredness up to now I’m am just feeling a popping sensation... my husband seems to think that I’m milking it and wanted me to walk up a mountain today! I told him no and I went to the beach 😂 xx

Good for you! No way I would be walking up a mountain, I’d be asleep half way up I’m so tired at the moment.

Bloating is getting worse and I’m hoping it’s a good sign. Got about 13 follicle by the scab today, only 8/9 the correct sort of measurement. Hope the others catch up a bit! I have another scan on Wednesday so hope to see some growth again!

When do you have egg collection planned for?

I was planned for the 26th but the eggs would be in over bank holiday ad the clinic is closed so they gave me an extra week of Norethisterone x

Oh god the norethisterone made me feel so yukky would have hated to have been on that for longer! Your a trooper! X

I was a bit dizzy the first 2 days and fine after. Mines 27 it just about classes as PCOS for 25 I’ve never had any symptoms and regular periods etc. Fingers crossed for tomorrow. I hope I don’t get OHSS x

I’m sure you will be fine, I’m drinking as much water as I can hold and trying to up my protein. Let me know how you get on tomorrow! Good luck!

Montgomery2 in reply toEm2405

I’ve been listening to my body (sound like a hippy!) .. when I need water I’ve been having it... too much can cause water in the follicles I believe.. I’ve had about 5x 500mls of water plus other drinks every day which i think is plenty.

With regards to protein I’ve been having a good chunk of meat with my meals. I am thinking about getting a supplement drink tomorrow just to make sure there’s enough.

Good luck xx
