please read as I'm worried

[Asha82]

Hi! Has anyone experienced a weird feeling of their abdomen feeling extremely tight and a lot of pressure, I have that feeling in my abdomen but I also have a weird feeling of pressure on the right side of my body xx

Hi,

Maybe you need to share a bit more, as you don't say if you are pregnant, or in the 2WW, or during the ovary stimulation.

I think it might help for others, so they can share their experiences.

take care

[Asha82 in reply to MammaMia86]

Yes your right I didn't even think of that lol, I'm 5 weeks pregnant but with low hcg levels, first they were 19 then 64 and now 103, I had a double embryo 5 day transfer through icsi, thankfully it has gone away for now

[MammaMia86 in reply to Asha82]

the pain could be due to the uterus streching, it might not be something to be concern about.

I can only tell you my experience, but I didn't have a good one. From the very begining I had lots of pain, since the ovary estimulation I had a weird pain on my left side, around week 5 I start bleeding and I had an internal bleeding. This is not an unsual thing, as it happens often and it doesn't mean that it could be serious.

Please don't think that my experience is what you might be having.

Like I said, I didn't have a good experience.

If the pain increases or you see bleeding, you might need to see the doctors.

In the meantime take care

Thank you and I'm sorry to hear about your experience, I have been bleeding for 2 days now but it's really light now and my fertility clinic is aware of that, they have told me to keep an eye out for signs of ectopic pregnancy but they said it's unlikely, I had a really good reaction to this cycle, I will be having another blood test on Friday to see if my hcg levels are rising and a scan in a week and a half to make sure it's not ectopic

[MammaMia86 in reply to Asha82]

it might be something similiar to mine. I had bleedings that were more or less intense, and it was so frighting....in my case it wasn't risky, but as I was bleeding I was having to be on sick leave and it stops.

I have friends that they had the same, and after a few weeks the bruise it gets reabsorb.

the advice I was giving was to take it easy, basically the same thing as during the 2WW. something important to consider also is not to have sex meanwhile you are bleeding (not sure if they mentioned that to you)

[Asha82 in reply to MammaMia86]

thank you for your help

Hi Asha82, in my case, I went to the toilet and a very big lump dropped in the toilet when I felt like weeing. So immediately I thought I have miscarried because the lump was big. Then I continued bleeding. But thankfully fully one was left. At the time I dint know the 2 implanted. So hold on there, with time I'm sure everything will fall in place and you will go ahead to have successful pregnancy.It's normal to be worried but keep hope alive. xx

[Asha82 in reply to Daughterofaking]

Thank you Daughterofaking I really appreciate it, my bleeding has almost stopped after bleeding for 3 days, I'm getting another blood test tomorrow to see if my hcg levels are still rising and I will be having a scan in roughly a week and a half xx

[Asha82 in reply to Daughterofaking]

The other strange thing is I don't have many pregnancy symptoms apart from frequent urination, fatigue and mild insomnia and very occasional nausea xx

[Daughterofaking]

Alright. Fingers crossed, everything will be alright. x

[Asha82 in reply to Daughterofaking]

Thank you I really appreciate it xx

[Daughterofaking]

Ok. I dint experience any pregnancy symptoms really. The frequent urination I noticed it when my tummy has grown big. That's why I don't really bank hope on those symptoms because everyone doesn't experience it. When seeing. Y monthly period I experience vomiting, diarrhea, weakness etc. But when I became pregnant I noticed nothing really. So it's just different for everyone..I only tested and it was positive and eventually missed my period.

[Asha82 in reply to Daughterofaking]

Ok thank you for letting me know that's very reassuring xx

[Daughterofaking in reply to Asha82]

You are welcome x

[Daughterofaking in reply to Asha82]

I went ahead to have a natural pregnancy after my first ivf. The only sympt6i experienced was weakness, of course I had a 5 month old at the time and frequent eating. That was it. I'm sure you are already there. x

[Asha82 in reply to Daughterofaking]

Thank you for letting me know, I have a sore back and muscle aches and pain x

[Asha82 in reply to Daughterofaking]

Hi! It's looking really bad, I did another pregnancy test this morning and it's come back a fair bit fainter so I know my levels have dropped😢x

[Daughterofaking]

Hi Asha82, sorry to hear that, I really know how you feel. Just wait till the next test and if its not what we are expecting. Just be calm and know that the next one.will be successful by God's grace. And who knows you might be pregnant naturally as it has happened to alot of us here. Never lose hope you shall dance at last. Wishing you all thr best in your journey. xx

[Asha82 in reply to Daughterofaking]

Thank you very much, I can't get pregnant naturally because I had my tubes tied after having my2 adult children, we can only afford to do one more cycle xx

[Daughterofaking]

You are welcome This journey is so stressful in everyway. Hopefully, the next one will be it, if this cycle is truly ruled out. xx

[Asha82 in reply to Daughterofaking]

Thank you I appreciate it xx
