We then did a FET in December and I got a bfp (unfortunately ended in m/c but that's unrelated). I was glad we waited as a bfp would have made the OHSS so much worse. I felt awful with OHSS, really sick and could barely drink water, ended up on a drip. By time the FET came around, I felt so well and healthy, my body was really ready for the embryos.

I will be sending you some extra special thoughts. Have you tried the Odwala protein drinks? or another liquid form of protein, like Ensure? There are times when I just don;t feel like eating, but can usually stomach sipping on one of those drinks. I think they have something like 20 grams of protein per drink. Gosh I wish I had some better advice or a magic pill to offer you.
