Diet and supplements before the transfer. Any tips?

[Baggit]

I’m due my very first transfer this Friday. Any specific things I should be doing or eating in these 4 days before the transfer to support the process? Any advice or tips that have worked for you?

Hi Baggit. Just wanted to wish you well for Friday. Obviously keep up with your Folic Acid and Vitamin D and a sensible diet. Some women add pineapple core to their diet around now, to help with blood flow to the womb lining and hopefully prevent any clot formation. Good luck! Diane

Got it! Will keep that. Yea I thought of adding pineapple. No harm

Hi Baggie! It was my very first transfer Saturday! Such a weird feeling now - all I can do is wait! And hope that our little embryo will be able to implant! But I am feeling quite calm, I think I have realised it is up to nature now! All I can do is look after myself and eat healthy! Like I have done the whole time. I have tried not to get too caught up in details of what I eat, but just .. healthy. Not had a takeaway for - I can’t remember 😂😇 Trying my best to avoid sugar and sweet stuff, but getting all my nutrients, vitamins and antioxidants. Sorry I don’t have any more specific advice 🥰 I have been quite bloated and constipated (sorry🙈) since EC and starting progesterone, so I have had to try ease that. Plenty of water 😇 Light walking, but also plenty of rest! Anyways - I wish you all the best for your embryo transfer Friday!! Hope it goes well and that this is your little special one 🥰
