IVF moms: question about pre-conception & early pregnancy
I would equate the IVF process with any other type of busy schedule. I didn't find the actual drugs taxing on my body. But like you said, the committments of all those doctor appointments and (for me) holding a full time job, it was a little rough. But it was NOTHING compared to the ridiculous tiredness I felt from weeks 6-17 during my twin pregnancy. It was sheer exhaustion. I've heard rumors twin pregnancies are more draining than singletons, but the fact is I was pregnant and all I wanted to do was sleep. I worked full time til 20 weeks though.
