Transfer day ….

Rol81 profile image
30 Replies

My two eggs survived to day 3…. One was 8 cell and the other 10 cell.

I’ve got steroids this time so I’m really hoping it helps with NK cells. Had lap surgery a few months ago too so I’m hoping for a better environment for them will help also.

So any tips now…foods to eat, things to avoid. I’ve taken off work till Wednesday . Or if it’s gonna work it’s gonna work?!!

Thanks for support the last few days, hope I don’t turn to crazy the next week or so . 🙈

Hopefully by a trial and error process they've got your protocol right now and these two will stick! ✨️✨️✨️ I've heard a lot of people say that the time it worked was when they didn't make too much effort with diet etc. Sounds like a good excuse to have the odd treat to me! 😉 Best of luck Rol, you deserve it xx

brilliant news! Bet you’re pleased you pushed for a day 3 transfer ♥️

Just take it easy. I tried loads of potions and foods to help with my transfers and honestly the one that took was the steroids and a glass of wine the night before transfer.

I believe if it’s gonna work it’s gonna work.

Everything crossed for you xxx

Ah millbanks, I wish you told me about the wine yesterday 😆

I think I’m better mentally having more of an idea of the quality. 🤞🤞🤞

Thanks xx

totally random but my nurse told me she swore by eating walnuts after her transfer so I did the same! I’m now 13 weeks and my transfer worked first time!!

Good luck x

Ah Twiglet. How are you? Xxx thanks for your message . I already had a sleepless night and it’s only night one. I think you’re right, just trying to tell my brain that too xxx

All the thoughts and the hormones never let me sleep much either in the 2WW 🤗 just rest when you can lovely. I also find the mindful IVF app helpful for that in case it helps you too xx

I never get it right but I wanted to say good luck and that I am on steroids too. Take it first thing so you can actually sleep at night! I am a vegetarian in my first days up to transfer I had pineapple everyday - don’t think it made a difference but I do like it! Worth a shot

Rol81 in reply toleo1980

Ah thank you. I hope you’re doing ok . ❤️ forgot the steroids might be affecting my sleep, I’ll take in the morning instead of lunch time. Sending you a hug x

Many people swear by eating a whole fresh pineapple for the 5 days following transfer, and pomegranate juice. Best of luck!

Very best of luck! With my successful transfer I had pomegranate juice every day, as well as Greek yoghurt with honey and walnuts. All fingers crossed!

in addition to walnuts, 1-2 brazil nuts a day for the selenium. As well as your multivitamin take magnesium. Try not to drink too many cold drinks. Warm them up with warm water from the kettle if you gan. Pomegranate juice, beetroot juice (for blood flow), extra progesterone if you have it and lots of positive thoughts ❤️
