4 DPO - Flu?

[scienceteacher79]

I just got hit with what I assume is the flu. It hit hard yesterday - muscle aches, sore throat, fatigue - everything flu related. Now , the next day - after 15 hours of sleep, I still feel fatigue, stuffy nose, sore throat but my aches are gone. Is this normal for the flu? I haven't had it in years so I can't remember. I know I may be grasping at straws here - anyone had flu/flu-like symptoms early in their 2WW?

This was my first month of clomid and injectables together. Thanks!!!

I just am getting over it. I got it 3 days post transfer. i was hoping it wasn't the flu, but my family also got it, so i know it is.  It was horrible!!! I am still recovering.  I hope that maybe yours isn't.  But I have horrible stomach cramps, vomiting, all over body aches, headache, head congestion. yuck! I hope you feel better soon.

I don't have any stomach cramps or vomiting. I did have the aches but they are gone and i had a headache but that is gone too. Nose is still completely blocked! I guess I will see if I get any of my family memebrs sick - then I will know if it is the flu!!! :)

Funny, me too. I am 7 DPO now, but at 3 DPO I got achey, chilled and then hot, and had the "runs".  The achey-ness and chills are gone, but my stomach is still kind of doing flips occasionally. I think it must be some form of the flu.  I hope it did not ruin my chances of getting prego this month. Feel better!

I had stomach flips, now just feel light headed & a bit sick.. havent been sick though.
I thought it might be some kind of bug too..
Hoping you are all feeling better soon, this 2ww is horrible although after getting my BPN the other day am scared to test monday.
Take it easy all lots of SSBD & hugs

I am pretty much over the worst of it. I thought the flu lasts longer than this. I haven't had it in years so I don't even remember. Just a bit tired and stuffed up right now. It sucks to get the flu at the beginning of the 2WW. The fever alone worried me. What if it is "too hot" for the baby to attach in there? Ugh - already driving myself bonkers and it is only 5 dpo.....

I am sure, it will be ok honey. 2ww is a killer.
Try & relax, easier said then done I know x x

I am on 4 dpo and today I have flu like symptoms achey joints and dry throat, I had a headache in the middle of the night.
Am I allowed to take any painkillers while on the 2ww?
