common cold pre ivf

Hi, I am preparing for my first IVF. Everything is going well--meditation, acupuncture, eating well, etc--except I have come down with a head cold. I read an article online that the common cold will prevent pregnancy. Anyone out there get sick before retrieval or transfer? I have a week before retrieval.
thank you, michfrog

I had a cold during one of my cycles...can't remember which one, but the Dr didn't seem concerned by.  Just told me if I started coughing he would want me on cough medicine.
