Trying to Get Pregnant

Did the trigger (HCG) shot make you sick?

I had my first IUI with no clomid 10 days ago. Since Thurs/Friday I have been very sick to my stomach, esp. when it's empty. I thought (and maybe it still is) a stomach bug but it's not getting any better, it's actually getting worse.

Just wondering if anyone got sick on the trigger shot or maybe it's something else like an ulcer because it's not going away and too early to test.

Just curious.

M/C #1: Nov 2003, Dx: MTHFR + Factor V, Baby #1: Born Nov 2004, M/C #2: Nov 2006, TTC for baby #2: Since July 2010, IUI #1 w/acupuncture + HCG trigger, no clomid,: Aug 2011

Re: Did the trigger (HCG) shot make you sick?

  • I took my trigger shot last night and I feel like junk today (napped during the day even though I got a full night sleep, nauseous, etc)  I can't narrow it down to just the trigger but.. it definitely could have been that. 

    A tip I got when I was KU about feeling sick (which..really the trigger is HCG so it could apply in this case) is that it will always be worse when you have an empty stomach, keep pretzels or crackers around to munch on - even before you get out of bed.

  • I have triggered 3 times and each time I felt nauseous on/off my entire 2ww, especially in the first 5 days.  Sorry!

  • I was nauseous through a lot of the 2ww after my trigger last cycle. Try not to let yourself get too hungry. It makes it much worse. GL!
