    I picked up my DS - he's somewhere between 12-13kgs and just carried on as normal - we got a BFP

    Guess it depends on whether you will beat yourself up if it doesn't work and blame yourself? Women get preg all the time and carry on as normal so I assume things can work fine - but I'd be scared that I (personally) would blame me too much.
    But hopefully it's a BFP so it's not an issue at all

    I was told that half hour after transfer I could carry on as usual as long as I didn't play squash or do something like water skiing... I had a 12 month old at the time and did nothing different with him.

    Thanks for your responses ladies

    Naomi, I think I would be OK, as I am used to picking up DS gazillion times a day, but I just don't want to risk it iykwim. I had a day 2 embie put in (previous two successful attempts were day 5 & 6).

    myturn, that's just it hun. I don't know how'd I feel if I got a BFN, thinking it could have been the lifting.

    mylitta, thanks hun. I have been lifting 'smaller' things, but DS is now so heavy, just dunno!
