3DP3DT - 8DP Trigger
Things Ain't Moving
Today's post is brought to you by the folks over at K-TMI (or W-TMI for those of you east of the big river).
One thing that is seldom mentioned in IVF circles is the delicate situation where, you are just past transfer and you get hit with a bout of (ahem!) irregularity. Seriously folks. This has happened on more than one IVF cycle for me and in each case I've been frightened to death of squishing, ejecting, or otherwise maiming my embryos whilst attempting to effect a movement.
My diet is often impeccable, more fiber on a daily basis than some people eat in a week, plenty of fluids, exercise. No, I just don't understand why I get hit with this in an IVF cycle.
Is this just an example of a lesser known side effect of progesterone or my vivelle patches? Does this happen to anyone else? And the question that's on my mind is, "Do embryos really survive bouts of this nature?"
Please tell me I haven't decreased their survival rate by, umm, well, staying in the trenches till the deed was done.
And...today's POAS showed the HCG is just about gone. Yay.

post a commentI think it's the anaesthetic, and then the progesterone. I get constipated every time I have an anaesthetic, so I'm sure that must be at least partially the culprit...
The pregesterone will do that...
