Is it the extra estrogen?

OK – so I am assuming it’s all the extra estrogen in my system but my sex drive has gone through the roof the past week. It’s to the point that I am having trouble concentrating at work because I want to get home to my hubby! Has this happened to anyone else or am I going crazy. I don’t think my hubby is complaining though. I am really hoping that he is not to tired tonight 

Do you have to abstain for so many days before your FET?

Yup - that is estrogen. I often have really...ahem...hot dreams. I wake up and think - wow! I've heard that sex drive goes up while pregnant - it must be the estrogen.

And be glad you are not feeling that way and on "pelvic rest" aka no nookie. It is hard!!

I felt that way after my IVF embryo transfer. They said no sex until either we got a negative beta or until the 7 week ultrasound. We lasted 9 days LOL
