Today started out like all the rest, no symptoms to speak of. Discouragement was setting in.
That afternoon, we decided to all go up to the media room and watch a movie. It was there that I started having pain in my lower back, it was a dull ache at first that gradually became more intense as the evening rolled on.
By the time we were ready for bed, the pain was so bad, I couldn't sleep, and I couldn't get comfortable. In the back of my mind I was so worried that my progesterone levels were dropping and AF was on the way. The next morning Sunday, I put a call in to the nurse to ask her if it was normal to be in all this pain. They didn't think so, and had me come in Monday morning to check things out.
The RE did a US, and said she didn't see what was causing it, she was thinking maybe the OHSS was kicking into high gear, but she only saw a little fluid. Because of my history they humored me and did a progesterone check to hopefully help me relax. Thankfully they did, the level was high, really high for me....57.
I could now relax, AF wasn't trying to rear her ugly head!

mommy blogger. As a mother that has suffered the loss of multiple children while becoming a mother of the bride to our oldest, raising 2 young adults, an 8 year old preemie and a 6 year old tornado, I have a lot to share. I can't guarantee you will agree with everything I say, but I think you may just enjoy it. This is our life, the good, bad and ugly.
