Hi Smile

I had my egg collection on Monday and I'm losing my patience with this bloating. I look about 4/5 months pregnant, haa any got advice on how to help it go down? I've already upped my protein intake and drinking a lot of water as advised by our nurse, I just can't deal with being ao uncomfortable anymore.

Thanks in advance x

I've got no advice sorry. I was in a lot of pain after my EC, I couldn't move for days! It slowly wears off.

Have you phoned them, just in case you have hyper-stimulation syndrome? The only time I had bloating after an egg collection was the time that I had a lot of fluid in my abdomen because of HSS, I had to spend a few days in hospital on a drip because my blood was too thick (it was an extreme case though).

I'm being monitored for OHSS but, the nurses don't seem concerned as I don't have any symptoms other than bloating. They said bloating was expected as I had a lot of eggs collected, I was just hoping for something that might help. Wishful thinking, haha. Thanks anyway guys x
