Bath after EC

CJones40 profile image
8 Replies

I had egg collection this morning and I’d love to have a nice bath to soothe the aches.

The hospital suggested that I shouldn’t have a bath today incase I felt faint but I don’t know if I’m allowed to have a bath tomorrow morning? (I forgot to ask!!).

I read somewhere that I should be showering instead of using the bath at some point- but I thought that was after transfer?

Can anyone help please?

Thank You all!

Ok thank you. X

I was told no baths for a few days post EC due to potential for infection. Post ET I was told no baths for the 2ww (which for me was horrible as I love a bath) xx
