to women having hormones&inducers,do u realy find that your stomach part is swollen,i feel it look like iam pregnant although iam not,does this happen to you or what?
Ohhhh yes, the wonderful bloating. I was on Femara + Injectables, then BFP. I'm 5 weeks, 2days, and, like sarge1, am now calling this my "baby bump." I tried Clomid in November and December, but took a month off after that and during that break my stomach shrank so much. I have been trying maternity pants even, because my regular clothes are so uncomfortable. But, the maternity pants are so unflattering on me this early on. I just look like a fat person!
Anyway, I'm glad someone posted this because I thought I was the only one!!!!

yes! I couldn't tell if it was because of all my meds, or bacause I stopped exercising because of the IVF procedure. But now I'm 4 weeks 3 days or so and I'm calling it my "baby bump". HA!
I am doing my 3rd IUI...It would have been great it I had conceived by now, but I am still hanging in there.
Well as for the experience of IUI...it is much like you would feel in a Pap smear test...you feel it when the speculum enters you...sometimes it is a lil uncomfortable when they cant find you cervix...but nothing painful. You might feel slight cramps, but that's it. Like I said there is no pain, so no pain releiving medication or anesthesia is needed. The moment the speculum is out, you feel as u did before, except sometimes bloated, some women spot a lil. But that's it....nothing to be afraid of if u have to do it. Hope this helps. Let me know what protocols you are under (if u dont want to share it in the forum, you can send me a message...I'd be happy to share my experience if I have undergone that protocol). Good luck!
