I'm doing IVF till January, but I just wanted to say GOOD LUCK!!!
Can anyone please let me know how much besrest they got and what they did to not go crazy????? Thanks...
Hi. I did my first IVF in July & I also was on 48 hours strict bedrest, getting up only to use the restroom, not even taking a shower. After that 48 hours, I still took it easy. No heavy lifting, no exercising, etc. Mine was a success & I'll be 17 weeks tomorrow! =) Good luck to you & if you have any other questions, I'll try to help.
Hi there..I have had two IVF cycles. Each time, I was on bed rest for 48 hours, only getting up to use the restroom. After that, light activiy, no heavy lifting ect...both failed. I am getting ready to have my third transfer this Friday or Sunday. I am going to take 3 days for bed rest this time, although I don't think it will honestly make a difference, but I will feel better, and try not to stress out, I think I did both times before, I am going to stay positive, no stress, and relax :) Good Luck and keep us posted
I did bedrest for 48 hours though the doctor only recommended 24 hours. I didn't do much on the third day, but I did walk a lot (which I hope doesn't impact anything). I go for my pregnancy test NEXT FRIDAY.
I am tempted, however, to get an HPT to see if I am pregnant now.
After transfer, I was told bedrest for the rest of the day until the morning after (so close to 24 hours). Then light activities for the next 2 days. We ended up watching a lot of movies!
Best of luck!!!
I was bed resting after transfer for an hour and was told to take it easy for the rest of the day. I went to work the day after. Now I have a perfect little girl.
Good luck!!!
Wow..thanks so much for your comments.
This is my first IVF, so I am hoping that everything works out. I have been in bed since yesterday watching movies and on the computer. My husband is being very helpful bringing me everything to bed.
I try to get into different positions so I dont feel numb, but it him if I lay on my stomach or cross my legs for too long of a period of time.
Tommorrow will be the last day that I will be in bed, so Saturday I should be back to light activites.
I have my pregnancy test on the 29th
I'm so sorry to hear that, secondivf2009. I hope third time's the charm for you...
I am so sorry...Dont give up you will get your baby you just have to keep at it! Did you get any symptoms that told u that u werent pregnant?
