Alcohol yay or nay?

[BeJeMo]

Can you drink in between collection and transfer? I have an event in between scheduled collection and transfer and I dont want to ruin all my hard work with a drink! Thank you

Hi. You know my answer will be no, you need lots of fluid to protect your ovaries and pineapple to help prevent blood clots and encouraged blood flow to the ovaries. NO alcohol, sorry. Hope all goes well. DianeAdd

I wouldn’t have a lot, but my Dr told me to relax and have a glass of wine the night before transfer to relax.

yes once the eggs are out and before the embryo is in technically you can have a couple but will depend what meds you are on for example alcohol doesn’t really mix well with clexane xx

I think alcohol is not recommended but my opinion is that a glass of wine won’t hurt your chances.

I’d probably say nay. In reality I think it’d probably be ok if you don’t go mad BUT if this round doesn’t go to plan I think you’ll kick yourself and be searching for reasons why it didn’t work. This might just be me but I think it can help stop you being hard on yourself in the future.

Personally, if it didn’t go to plan I would always think it was that f**ing glass of wine! You’ll be able to have plenty after birth if you can juggle!
