Welcome to the part of the day where I can't breathe
I guess I have a slight case of OHSS (Ovarian Hyper Stimulation Syndrome). My stomach is so distended I look about 3-4 months pregnant and it is rock hard. After I eat it becomes so hard to breathe! ugh. I asked my nurse about it and she said that as long as I am urinating in accordance to how much I am drinking it is perfectly normal, even a good sign. I have been reading blogs of two other women who have moderate-severe OHSS and basically unless you are gaining 5 lbs a day, there is nothing the doctors can do anyway- except tell you to drink Gatorade. So, I have been chugging away on the Gatorade and thanking God for summer dresses.
