Any tips for after embryo transfer?

[Chattycat78]

Hi girls,

I m wondering if anyone has any little tips to help after embryo transfer? I realise a lot of it is down to luck but I want to do everything possible to give it the best possible chance of working. Things I'm doing now include:

Acupuncture today after transfer
Listening to zita west cd
Drinking and eating pineapple
Not using perfume and using unscented toiletries
Obviously not drinking and no caffeine
No temperature extremes
Keeping feet warm( I read that somewhere)!
Trying not to get stressed!
Praying like mad!

Does anyone have anything else they can think of?

Any thoughts are appreciated! Xx

Good luck chatty! I think my advice would be to get a box set or a good book to distract yourself from the insane thoughts which will go through your mind in the 2ww! Try not to symptom spot too much but that's asking the impossible! Get yourself on a support thread (most are on the Conception boards) and you'll be in good company.

All the best!

Thanks no beer! Unfortunately I'll be back at work tomorrow, so will be very much distracted by that! Book is a good idea for the evenings though!

I take it you've been there? X

Yes! I had ET on 29 March and just been for a scan today! I wasn't sure we'd get this far.

Working is good. My last cycle which failed, I was off work so had time to over analyse everything. I've been much more relaxed this time and work has really helped me to keep my head straight.

You're PUPO (pregnant until proven otherwise) now so celebrate that for the moment.

Oh congratulations on it working for you! Here's to hoping the good luck filters my way! I hope your Scan showed all is going well? X and yes you are quite right I need to celebrate getting this far! Xx
