Any Tips prior to Frozen Embryo Transfer?

Hi all! So I have my first embryo transfer in August(FET), does anyone have any tips what to do before this, diet supplements etc?

I would just eat healthy lots of fruit and veg and lots of protein. However, i also did a couple of sessions of acupuncture leading to transfer and also on the day, before and after transfer. Currently in the 2ww.... xx

Awww good luck! Hope the next few days goes quickly for you! Yeh just need to think eat healthy etc I just feel like I'm going to be so so stressed and anxious, how do you feel after?

[destiny121 in reply to Hidden]

I was very nervous, anxious, scared, dare to dream that it could actually work. Acupuncture helped a lot to relieve the stress...

Hiya I would try and eat healthy. I drank loads of water and ate Brazil nuts and drank pomegranate juice. I had accupuntre beforehand and just tried to be relaxed!! Good luck x

Definately going to do Brazil nuts and pom juice, I started it during stims as I ended up doing a freeze all cycle, seen some videos on YouTube about pineapple core lol think I'll do everything haha

Hey I had a FET in April ... I had acupuncture and a session of reflexology. I tried to eat clean as much as I could and cut down to one coffee a day. I put a hot water bottle on my tummy each night and listened to Zita West pre transfer hypnosis to help me sleep. After transfer I had 5 Brazil nuts a day and drank pomegranate juice (just as that’s what people said lol). I then listened to the Zita West post transfer hypnosis and the 2 week wait one. I was finding it hard to be positive but they really, really helped me!!! The advice for the 2ww for me was to carry on as normal but a “little less”. That’s what I did, I went to work but kept evenings free and weekends clear. I watched funny films and kept my feet warm. I didn’t test early and I kept on here for support!! It worked and I’m 15 weeks! I Have had lots of dramas since my positive but we are still going strong. All the best chick xx

Aww congrats! So you kept having one coffee per day even after transfer? What about exercise before?

[lolita83 in reply to Hidden]

Yeah I have carried on with one coffee a day as you are allowed so many mg and the clinic said one was more than fine. It depends how you feel about it, a lot of women would say I shouldn’t I’m sure. I did lots of exercise before - totally carried on as normal x
