Hi Coral. Just scale it down to brisk walking and gentle exercise. Definitely no swimming. Good luck. Diane

Hi Dian thank you so can’t swim until the test is done ? Xx

Hi. There could be a risk of infection from the pool, so best not until test is done, then if positive, not for 3 months. Diane

I ran a few times a week, keeping my heart rate low. I am doing about half the mileage I was doing before transfer and no really long runs.

I haven’t been able to run today due to morning sickness, so just listen to your body.

I swam throughout my pregnancy. Also went cycling day after egg transfer. Consultant said it was good to get the blood flowing to the womb!

I’d avoid any heavy lifting or twisting, certainly whilst your ovaries recover x
