Infertility

I'm a bridesmaid in 7 days...

And my belly is as big as a soccer ball! This damn OHSS. I tried on the dress and it has an empire waist so it zips, but I look ridiculous. Did I mention it's my brothers wedding? There's no way out of this one. IF SUCKS!

  • Hopefully the bloat will decrease by then.  At least you lucked out with that style of dress.  It could be a lot worse.

  • Yikes! Are you taking cabergoline? That really helped me a lot. Keep drinking the Gatorade!  Hope the bloating subsides soon!
