Bloatedness after Retrieval...Update**
if bloatedness is such a word! Girls...I had my retrieval yesterday (as some of you may remember), and last night, I was sooo bloated. I woke up about 6 times throughout the night to pee. When I peed, I felt a pressure down there...is that normal? Today, I am still SO bloated and it doesn't seem like I'm peeing a lot for the amount of water that I've been drinking. Is this normal?
Thanks! Mrs. Very Bloated
Update: FYI......After transfer, we have to consume at least 64oz. fluid. I emailed my RE 15 minutes ago and she just got off the phone with me and told me that basically i'm not drinking enough fluids. She also wants to see me in the morning before my transfer for an u/s to evaluate me for hyperstimulation. So, remember ladies.....at least 64oz. fluids to help with bloating! OMG..where am I going to fit all this liquid with my bloating! Although, my bloating is definitely getting better!

Re: Bloatedness after Retrieval...
If you were not peeing at all I'd say there was an issue, but if you are peeing then its probably fine. Continue to drink more water.
Do you still feel pressure when you do pee?

Yup. I was super-bloated. It takes a long time to go down.

Hey! I was peeing excessively last night but today, I think I only peed 3 times today and I consumed about 26-30oz of water. I talked to my nurse at my RE office today and she also told me that I'm not drinking enough water! I'm trying to drink another 16 oz before bed and hopefully, I won't be waking up every hour again throughout the night!
The pressure while I pee is getting better. It has definitely gotten better than last night.
By the way, not to be gross but did I mention I'm very CONSTIPATED!!!!
