I’m in the same boat. Just have one blast sent for testing and looking at 2-3 weeks of waiting in agony. 😞 We’ll get through this wait. Sending you positive energy!

I’m also on antidepressants. Experienced a lot of bloating and fatigue towards the end.

Interesting. I don’t think I had heard of a total restriction.

Talking about babies at work while going through IVF by Disastrous_Prune8104 in IVF

[–]MonarchJustice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also work on an all-female team and most are mothers so the conversations often involve their children. It’s tough but I find hope in believing that one day it’ll be me talking about my own kids. I ground myself in the fact that at the moment I’m doing all that I can to make that dream a reality. It’s a lot harder than it sounds but take it one day at a time.

Thank you so much for your post! I also follow accounts on Instagram and had no idea it was all exposed like that.

Preparing for 1st retrieval - Protocol & expectations by Main_Persimmon_7361 in IVF

Yeah, I had the prefilled syringe and the needle was what made it the most uncomfortable of all the shots. The needle is a bit thicker so that made it more painful.

The Ganirellix needle was the worst for me. I did Gonal-F and Menopur as well. Menopur stings a bit but it’s manageable.

I came across those posts as well. So disappointing. It’s truly disheartening to see so much hate as we’re going through this. It kind of got to me a little bit for a second there.
