I've cut out caffeine and alcohol completely. In terms of foods avocados are supposed to be really beneficial, beetroot, almonds, spinach/kale. If your on Pinterest go on there and search IVF diet I got loads of ideas from there x

Hi, I can recommend fertile by Emma cannon. It's a brilliant book and has a whole section on recipes. I made my own meal planner from this book during the stimming stage! Good luck!
