Bad reflux and cramping
I know obviously it's still too early to be a pregnancy symptom so I am not hinting at that lol
I read something that both of these could mean too much progesterone in the body. I am taking 1/endometrin 3x a day so 300 of progesterone.
I'm going to mention this to the nurse today but anything I can do? They won't let me take Advil and keep saying heating pad but the cramps are horrible. I never had this on my other progesterone suppositories. Light cramping but nothing this bad.
I'm miserable bc everything I eat kills me!
What the heck can I do for some relief.
I have reflux now and I didn't even eat anything!

Re: Bad reflux and cramping
Take Tylenol for the Cramping. It will help. Also I found that a lot of my cramping was gas pain so I took gas X and drank tea
For the reflux, take Tums. I think those are fine to take. It is the progesterone. I get reflux starting a week before AF arrives. Have my whole life. It's progesterone.

Re: Bad reflux and cramping
I'm switching back to my other progesterone supps. Never had this reaction and I don't want to be miserable for Christmas!

Re: Bad reflux and cramping
My doctor said Zantac 150 is completely safe to take. It really works fast for the reflux and heartburn. Also cold milk works wonders for a little relief.
I could not live without these two items!

I've heard warm milk as well (with a dash of cinnamon) ... however milk would cause other issues for me, lol.

Re: Bad reflux and cramping
My pain was gas pain combined with hyperstimulation. Take Gas X and Tylenol and lay with your feet elevated above your heart. Also, don't eat anything that causes more gas.

I have no gas issues at all. I did the day before transfer when I worked a 12hr day and did tons of lifting.
I'm actually very regular and no gas issues at all. It's all uterine which sucks!!!

The cramping could be gas pain - it masks itself as uterine pain all the time... I would try it just to see if it helps - I don't believe gas-X is bad, I'm 90% sure gas-x is OK....

LOL!!! you crack me up! 
I wish I could tell.... lately because I've gained so much weight and am so friggin fat right now, I can't tell what's uterine cramping versus just having all this extra weight versus something I ate... IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!! I feel like I've cramps constantly! [I wish there was an expanding person icon because that is exactly how I feel right now.]

Re: Bad reflux and cramping
LOL
I actually am very accustomed to that feeling during the whole IVF process. It's like I expanded sideways lol
Finally since transfer, I can fit into my normal jeans again and I feel good. I am actually not constipated from the progesterone which I was warned about. I'm actually more regular than ever lol! I'm a weirdo.

Hahahaha, it's such a vicious cycle for me... I had lost a bunch of weight right before I got preggo the first time, then after the 1st mc I just went into such a tailspin! I've gained almost 20 pounds!!!!!!!!! I have to get back to the gym, I know I'll feel better with that.

LOL CUTE!! Mine wasn't coming out but was moving around my abdomen so I would feel my ovaries hurt on both sides at different times as the bubble moved. I think it's worth a try! It went away after 5 days.

Bad reflux and cramping
Cramping and reflux were always the first signs for me I was preggo. They started really early too like 6-7 DPO. Good luck
