Pregnant with OHSS

[missyb88]

I have been confirmed pregnant this week, I have been suffering really bad bloating and cramping and have put it down to the progesterone pessaries and just pregnancy in general, last night I was in agony and took myself to A&E in the night as it was horrible I just couldn’t sleep or get comfortable.

After having scans done today it has been confirmed I have moderate OHSS. I have a mass of fluid built up under my boob area and my stomach. I can’t help but worry that bambino will be effected.

Has anyone else had OHSS in pregnancy?

Hey!

I did .. it was absolutely awful! I was hospitalised 3 times with the excruciating pain. My ovaries were 4x their normal size, i had burst cysts (I have PCO’s) and free fluid. I was given anti sickness injections to stop me from being sick with the pain, codeine and paracetamol IV’s to help with the pain. Also prescribed clexane injections. I was so worried about the effect these medications would have on my baby. I was only about between 8DPT and 20DPT at the time so super early.

I’m now 20 weeks pregnant. After those first few weeks i felt so much better. I just rested.

So far my scans have all been perfect, baby looks great. I feel much better.

I know its horrible to go through for you, but rest assured there should be no affect on the baby xxx

Where abouts was you getting your pain? They are giving me pain meds and the blood thinner one which I was unsure about xx

Hey I had ohss before I found out I was pregnant. Are they draining the fluid?? Luckily when I went A&E I didn’t have fluid I was just dehydrated and being sick so I ended up with iv. Baby will be fine just rest and drink loads of water flush it out and just rest have naps. Even when I went to my 12 week scan she said I still had big sacs but nothing to worry about, they will check this at every scan 💖💖💖
