13 days of injections

Hello just wondering if anyone has really bad belly’s and sore boobs when doing ivf ? Today I can’t even fold my arms because they are to painful 😣

Hello, I started my journey on the 8th November, I experienced sore nipples initially, but it's eased now. Have you experienced any other side effects? I've definitely had mood swings and hot flushes 😳!! I've not really noticed anything different since starting injection number 2 so that's good I guess!

Good luck to you ☺️

Really emotional literally cry over everything 😂😂 I feel really tired and ache 🤒 pain in my belly as if AF is going to show also I’m hoping for egg collection Wednesday xx

I've also been super emotional! I was always a bit of a cryer anyway but it's definitely got worse 😂

I really hope it all works out for you. I have a stimulation day 8 scan on Wednesday so I'm hoping to find out how far away I'll be from egg collection.

It's such a strange experience, but super exciting xx

They was going to cancel mine as I only had 2 growing but by the Friday I had a lot more they said I made the right decision to ask for a few more days 😊it’s surprising how amazing our bodies are even if they don’t work right some times lol 😂 I’ve been eating avocado 🥑 every morning on toast with pouched egg supposed to be good to grow the eggs everything is worth a try xx fingers crossed for you xx

I found that the fresh cycle was so tough on me! I had sore boobs always felt tired and the closer it got to egg collection the more it felt like AF was on its way I had major mood swings, which was so out of character for me! I was constantly tired but in the end when you get through egg collection it’s worth it ❤️ knowing your one step closer to transfer! Your not alone hunny, best of luck ❤️❤️

I had really sore boobs too. I get this normally with my normal cycles, but this was a lot worse, I kept waking myself up when I turned in bed 😂🙈 I ended up having to sleep with a sports bra in the end, it did help. It has eased, they are still a bit sore, but much milder and it seems to come and go a little now. I did not have pain in my lower belly, but it felt like a pressure, so more an ache I would say.

I am glad your cycle is still going ahead 🥰 That is fab news for you! I wish you all the best for EC Wednesday 🤞
