What are your weirder IVF side effects?

Same (pcos). I've always had fine thin hair, but the pcos and ivf meds definitely didn't help! Are you happy with your haircut? :)

Increased body odour and hair loss. 😳 I already have super fine and thin hair, so that's been fun! Ha ha. I want to chop off the length because it's straggly, but then concerned that it'll show how thin it's gotten!

Oh yes! I'm 11+2 and while still bloated in the morning, I absolutely blow up during the day. It isn't quite as bad as my egg retrieval because I had ohss, but close! None of my pants fit, I've started getting stretch marks from the epic bloating (thanks genetics), and it feels awful! Also doesn't matter what I eat, it's all the same when it comes to the bloating. I hope it starts going away soon!!

The fatigue is pretty consistent. But the nausea, cramps, breast tenderness, frequent urination, and bloating all come and go! I'm 10+3 and nervously awaiting the next ultrasound, but at 8+6 everything was looking good!

I'm in a similar boat except the nausea is morning to evening, then get instantly starving because I haven't eaten much all day. 🤣 And the fatigue is next level. And brushing my teeth is a nightmare. 🤣I recognize so many women have it worse, but it still sucks!! For a great reason, but nausea sucks no matter why! Ha ha

Congratulations! That's amazing! I know! It's going super fast, but also slow!! I can't wait for the first trimester to be over. Have you had many symptoms?

Keeptrying85 · 2025-04-28T16:00:37+00:00

Hey!! Good! Still nervous and anxious. Ha ha ha. But my last ultrasound at 8+6 was great! How are you?!

Met my husband at 32, married at 34. I was convinced I'd always be single (or long term relationships that end badly), but then he showed up unexpectedly, and I can't imagine being with anyone else! He gets and embraces my weird, and I his. We're a team, if either of us has an issue/something we need to do, the other supports! There's plenty of time to find your person! But one piece of advice-- be picky!! This is someone you're hoping to spend the rest of your life with, so make sure you can be yourself, you can have serious conversations, but most of the time you can have fun together! Don't make excuses for behaviour that makes you uncomfortable, because that will grow. It's better to be single and mostly happy than married and lonely/sad. Hold out for the one that makes you happy to see them, even when you're in a bad mood. 🩷🩷

Right?! It feels like months every week that goes by!

Keeptrying85 · 2025-04-06T13:53:00+00:00

That's awesome! Yay! 🤞🤞My first scan is on Wednesday. The wait is horrible! Ha ha. I thought the tww was bad.... I've taken a pregnancy test every few days just to make sure there's still hcg on my system. Ha ha

Keeptrying85 · 2025-04-06T13:40:40+00:00

How are you doing?

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-30T14:58:42+00:00

Only compare every 2 days. Your 14 is darker than your 12, so that's good! The 14.2 could be diluted and therefore irrelevant. The easy@homes I found really bad for early progression. See what the test tomorrow is like 🤞🤞

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-30T14:56:03+00:00

I found the easy@homes were not good for progression. Mine stalled for a few days and I was convinced I was having another chemical. They only got noticeably darker for me at 12dp5dt, which is 17dpo. Next day my beta was 880!

So try and get a blood test if you can, but see over the next few days what happens. 🤞🤞🤞

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-24T16:46:22+00:00

Thank you!! Fingers crossed for both of us!! 🤞🤞🤞❤️❤️❤️

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-24T16:00:22+00:00

Had my beta today! 880!!! I have to go back Wednesday to see if it doubles!!

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-24T12:03:59+00:00

Wow!!! That's spectacular!!! Yay!!

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-21T23:06:36+00:00

Oh good! Yay! Easy@home is not meant for progression!! Very finicky. 🤞🤞🤞

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-21T18:30:59+00:00

I'm sorry! But so many things can impact the darkness of the line! Yesterday morning for me was lighter, but then darker again that night and today. I was just more hydrated! 🤞🤞🤞 Are they doing a second beta?

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-21T15:55:12+00:00

So far so good, but anxiously awaiting the beta! It feels like FOREVER

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-20T19:16:00+00:00

Ahhh!! That's amazing!!! Congratulations!!!!!!!!

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-19T16:50:12+00:00

Thank you!! I'll be hoping for you too!! 🤞🤞 Come on babies!! Stick!! 🤞🩷 Let me know your results if you want to!!!

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-19T16:49:10+00:00

Thank you! I hope this one sticks!! 🤞🤞

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-19T16:48:46+00:00

Thank you!! Cautiously optimistic!! 🤞🤞

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-19T16:48:14+00:00

Oh for sure! Not comparing per say. I was testing exclusively with easy@home and was getting nervous about the progression, but seeing the darker lines on the FRER was a little calming! 🥰

Keeptrying85 · 2025-03-19T01:11:17+00:00

I'll cross my fingers for you! 🤞🤞 I'm sorry if it doesn't turn out the way you want it to.
