Infertility

Cramping with Stims... normal??

Did you get cramping while on stims? I am only day 2 and today (well in last hour or so) I am very crampy. Is this normal or something to tell my co-ordinator?

Multiple ectopics, 2 failed IVF's
IVF #1: Did not get to ET, embies all failed PGD (major chromosomal defects)
IVF #2: We have 2 chromosomally perfect embies as a result of PGD (Boy/Girl) 1 failed the thaw (Girl) Transferred 1, yet ended as a c/p
Thought it was the end of our TTC Journey 6/20/2012
SHOCK BFP 9/28/2012: IT'S A BOY! and everything is normal !!!!!!

Re: Cramping with Stims... normal??

  • Yes, I was told it was from the ovaries making room for the follicles. Not sure if that is true, but I definitely had some cramping during stims.

  • Yes, I did get cramping while stimming. It can mean that you are responding well and your follies are growing but if they get really uncomfortable, talk to your nurse about it. GL!
