Hiya what did you eat or stay away from in your stimulation period? What's the dos and donts

You might find exercise becomes uncomfortable as your ovaries swell- definitely take anything that works your core easy towards the end.

I choose not to drink alcohol or caffeine whilst stimming, my clinic say no alcohol but limited caffeine is ok- I just find it easier to avoid it during that time.

I took pregnacare max (not the preconception ones) on the advice of my clinic too, and my hubbie took vitamins to help him have super sperm even though his motility and morphology is ok.

I always made sure to drink lots of water and eat plenty of protein during stimulation phase and a healthy balanced diet in general. No caffeine or alcohol. Very best of luck x
