in Infertility
What kind of PIO side effects do you guys have? I am bloated, tired, my boobs are sore and I have random cramps/twinges. I never had this with Crinone. They're like pg symptoms and I haven't even had the transfer yet! IVF is such a mind f*ck.

TTC in 2008. Stage II/III endo, Hashimotos hypothyroid, low morph (3%).
2 cycles Clomid/Ovidrel/TI/Crinone=BFN.
IUI #1 - 4 Follistim/Ovidrel/IUI/Crinone = BFN.
IVF #1 - Antagonist w/ ICSI 4/10. 17 retrieved, 5DT of 2, BFN :(
IVF #2 - Long Lupron w/ ICSI 6/10. 15 retrieved, 3DT of 2, BFFN!!
Lap 7/21/10
IVF #3 - Clomid/Antagonist w/ ICSI 10/10. 14 retreived, 3DT of 3, BFP 10/20 but m/c. No HB 11/15/10 - D&C 11/17/10.
FET - 2 blasts, 1 survived the thaw. Transfer 2/19. Beta #1 3/1 375, Beta #2 3/3 885, Beta #3 3/8 4261, Beta #4 3/11 9005. U/S 3/8 1 sac 1 yolk, U/S 3/16 1 heartbeat 114bpm!

    Yup... Pretty much every early pregnancy symptom you can think of is also a side effect of PIO. It's a total mind f*ck. 

    I hope you're really feeling pregnancy symptoms soon!

    I only did PIO for a few days, but I had the craziest and most vivid dreams ever.

    PIO is tricky stuff.  I really don't think you can properly interpret "symptoms" when on PIO.  After 2 pregnancies I still think that PIO feels exactly like pregnancy symptoms.  :  (
