A? for IVF Ladies

So I have my first ER in about three weeks and I am wondering what to expect.  I know what is medically involved but I am more worried about how I will feel after.  My RE's office told me I will need to rest the day of the ER but how did you feel the next day?  Should I plan not to go to work the day after as well?

TIA!

    I definitely could not have gone to work the day of, but I felt fine to go the next day.

    I am in my first IVF cycle so I don't know how I will feel after ER or ET, but my Dr. asked me to take 5-7 working days off on medical leave.  Basically, he wants me to be off from ER to a couple days after ET.

    My first ER was on a Friday.  I took the day of ER off and had the weekend to recover before going to work.  I was fine to work but still had quite a bit of discomfort the next week.

    My second ER was on a Thursday.  I took the day of ER off and worked the day after.  I will admit I was miserable that Friday at work.  I wish I had taken the day after off (however, with everything I had going on at work, it wasn't really possible).

    Good luck!

    Hi! I had 17 eggs removed... was really bloated and uncomfortable. I took the day of the procedure off and the day after off... it was more uncomfortable afterwards than I thought it would be.
