Sensitive Post - Bloated wk5 (+2) BFP after IVF

[Sandy83]

Hi ladies,

I am feeling extraordinarily bloated, similar to the day prior to my EC. My FS advised that would probably be the case with the cyclogest but it's weird I look like a 4 month pregnant woman. Did you experience the same thing?

I'm counting the days to my week 8 scan, fingers crossed for you all to xx

Does it get worse??? Oh no. I am still in 2ww. Maybe ask your clinic if this is right? They might be able to suggest something to subside the bloating. Are you drinking enough water? Xx

I've not got this far so I don't know I'm afraid.

Hope times flies by until your scan. Xx

Hi Sandy

Congratulations on your BFP 🙂❤

I had bloatedness - this is normal given the procedure you have had, your ovaries are enlarged and its because of the cyclogest pessaries.

This will go down in time. I have had bad constipation but i am finding fybogel sachets help soften the stools. The wait for the 7/8 week scan is sooooo long but keep yourself occupied and it will soon come round. I am 7wks today and im due my scan in 2 days time. So anxious but trying to stay positive.

Good luck in your pregnancy hope its a healthy and happy one! ❤🤞😘🤗

To those who are on their journey or about to begin best of luck too. It WILL happen, you will be a mom 🤰🤱🤞❤🤗👍xx

Congratulations! 🎉I am 8 weeks & since my positive test I’ve been really bloated! Unfortunately it is common with early pregnancy. I did not have ivf so can’t comment on that aspect. All the best with your pregnancy xoxo

I think bloating and cramping are common side effects with the pessaries.. Congratulations on your pregnancy xx

Congratulations on your BFP. I definitely had bloating. Looked pregnant from ridiculously early on. Think it’s just one of the many lovely side effects to deal with!

Congratulations on your BFP. I got quite severely bloated after stims (not OHSS, just normal bloating) and it continued after my BFP until I stopped the pessaries at 12 weeks. I looked more pregnant at 10.5 weeks than I did at 15 weeks! Not very comfortable but obviously worth it.
