Bloatation Device....

No, seriously, I am so bloated that I feel like I could be someone's pool float! I am 4dpiui and wondering if it is the HCG trigger that is triggering my body to literally blow up? This is all a new experience for me and I am thinking about investing in some elastic waistband pants well before I ever get a BFP Stick out tongue

    Its all the meds.  Are you taking any progesterone?  That is what makes me blow up.  The fun never stops.  I do have some elastic pants for just such an occasion :)  Good luck!

    Thanks for the reply jawedd : ). No progesterone yet, I get my levels checked on Wednesday so if I get started on that I am definitely buying some elastic pants. Good to know its the meds and not the super slowdown of my metabolism from another recent bday, lol.

    I did the trigger shot for IUI4 ( generally o on my own) and I was soooo bloated! It was a yoga pants day! For me the first 2 days were the worst and then it started to tone down- hope it does for you too!
    Me:30 low AMH; DH:30 MFI (count, motility, morphology)
    2 rounds clomid 100 mg -BFN
    IUI#1- 25 mg clomid- July 2012= BFN!
    IUI #2 August = BFN!
    IUI #3 September = BFN!

    IVF #1 November - converted to IUI #4 due to poor response = BFN
    IVF #1.2 February- converted to IUI #5 due to poor response = BFN
    IVF #1.3 April- micro dose Lupron flare with HGH; 14R, 13M, 11F! Transfer of 1 day 5 blast on 4/30, 4 frosties. BFP! Beta #1 9dp5dt= 179; Beta #2 11dp5dt= 442; Beta #3 4106 Stick baby stick!!

    *trying to keep hope*

    I so feel your pain! I've been living in leggings and sweatpants the entire month. I have always had a pretty flat stomach, and I seriously look 5 months pregnant with the bloat. I sent a pic of my belly full of eggs today to my family, and they were dying. I am hoping the bloat and misery is all worth it, and I have some superstar eggs growing in there! GL and go get those elastic pants on! :)

    You're kidding me, right? Please tell me you're kidding. I thought the bloat was supposed to go down now that ET was done but I'm doing a ton of PIO shots. Le sigh.

    OP - I always got bloated after IUI. I'm sure it's the meds I just don't know which. I didn't always do an HCG trigger (sometimes I did a Lupron trigger). It got better the closer I got to the end of the 2ww. I had to wear sweats it was so bad but I'm pretty small naturally (size 3) so if I have any bloat at all my pants don't fit.
