Re: ER Did you go to work after

  • I wouldn't suggest it, they put you under sedation for ER and you can be pretty drowsy after, besides I always needed that day to rest to get over the crampiness. 

    Good luck!  

    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
    My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

  • No, I came home, took pain pills, and slept.  I recommend taking the afternoon off.  You may be in a little bit or a lot of pain.

  • I didn't. For the same reasons as the pp's.
  • I wasn't in pain, but I had to sleep off the meds for sure.  

    If I couldn't drive after the meds, there's no way I would have been any good in the office!

    After 20 months, 3 Clomid cycles and 4 IUI cycles, IVF #1 with ICSI = BFP!

  • I took that day and the day after off. Although I wasn't in any discomfort, I am glad I didn't rush right back to work because if I didn't get as much rest as I did, I may have had some pain and stuff.


  • I didn't work that day, or the next.  I felt like I'd been hit by a truck!
  • i have a very physically demanding job, and took off the next 2 days after ER both cycles. I'm glad I did, because I was in pain for the first 36 hours and would never have been able to handle it.

  • Mine was on a Sunday but I would have taken the if it had been a work day. Like everyone else I ended up sleeping for several hours after I got home. I wasn't in a lot of pain, just really crampy but I wouldn't have wanted to be at work dealing with that. GL to you!
