Natural FET - Frostie Onboard!

[DSPurple]

We had our 2nd transfer 5 day embryo, first frozen, yesterday with 2 embryos remaining. We've opted for the natural cycle given that my cycles were regular (around 28 days), but a couple of long cycles threw things a little bit (I was up to 31 days). Ovulation happened on Day 19 and Transfer took place 6 days later, yesterday, 15th May. OTD is 30th May.

Prior to transfer I have been eating pineapple, taking vitamins and probiotics (Optibac) and trying to up my fruit and veg intake. I will be eating more fibre, getting plenty of rest, but still doing light exercise and I've been told that laughter has been proven to help so I guess "Friends" will be on repeat 😂 I've always got cold feet and been told to keep them cosy so the cosy socks are a permanent fixture. I've managed to take a few days off work over the next 2 weeks too so hopefully that will help me relax a bit.

Any other suggestions are very welcome!

best of luck 🤞. You are already doing fantastic. Just try to drink polo granary and beetroot juice every day try to have fresh one. They really helps in implantation as lots of ladies told me I am also going for natural cycle. In few days . I will pray for you 🙏.

Hi Can I ask what polo granary is? I will have my 2nd FET in a few weeks so trying to make sure I am taking all the right things between now and during the next tww xx

I think it was pomegranate maybe!

[Nabsal in reply to DSPurple]

Yes pomegranate

[Nabsal in reply to Hidden]

Pomegranate 😂. Sorry spelling mistake . Also try to have watermelon,beetroot and little bit ginger juice as well. After transfer from day to on word I will also have. At the moment I am simply eating watermelon

[Hidden in reply to Nabsal]

Ah thank you I have heard about the watermelon ginger and beetroot juice! I will definitely have that - is it good to start before transfer?? Xx

[Nabsal in reply to Hidden]

I think no I will also start from day 1 of embryo but the moment I am eating watermelon 🍉 simply

Take care of yourself -give yourself a treat every day or so - buy a bunch of flowers or some dark chocolate sweets Rest when you can - eat a healthy diet and drink plenty of fluids Take any meds you have been given as directed

Sending good luck wishes
