Can I have a bath pre-transfer?

Silly question, but I am about to have my first frozen transfer tomorrow (after our first fresh sadly ended in miscarriage in March). I love my baths and planning on a good soak tonight as I know it's advised to avoid post transfer. I can't seem any advice online about pre-transfer. I assume it's fine as there's no emmie onboard... but I've got myself worked up now. Anyone know if this is okay before I start making a mega bubble bath?

Thanks!! x

Just fill the bath and jump in, not a problem having a nice, long, relaxing bath before the transfer 🥰 Enjoy and good luck for tomorrow 🍀🍀🍀❤️🥰

Thanks!!! I'm running it now xx

You can do most anything pre transfer and it’s fine. Enjoy that bath!

Enjoy the bath! I miss mine, my clinic said not to use highly smelly perfumes before hand, even deodorant etc .. but no baths after and I’ve stuck to it all the way.. good luck for tomorrow xx

Hi Sara. Yes, but be careful of strong smells - embryos/sperm don't like them. Diane
