Weight gain and bloating after fet

Hi all a silly question maybe but is anyone else struggling with weight and bloating?

I had my failed FET on 19th February. Since then my belly is bloated and I look pregnant. I'm 37 and have severe endo, and I always been on the border of my BMI but they the heaviest I've been in my life! I've put on 10kg since Dow reg! My eating habits have not changed, if anything, I drink less alcohol and eat more veg. My belly is ok in the morning and gets bigger through the day.

I feel really upset and anxious. I feel I'm failing on every front now, can't get pregnant and look like a whale. What's the point...

Has anybody experienced prelonged bloating ?

Hi Buisquits, We got our BFN just before you and I still feel really bloated…

My tummy just seems to grow larger and larger during the day, I’m feeling self conscious and really sluggish.

It must be the hormones still causing havoc and maybe the fact that I’m enjoying all the things I tried to cut out gluten , chocolate, sugar!!!!

I’m sure it’ll pass for both of us when our hormone levels return to normal! Xxx
