    Dilemma : FET now, or wait till January?!

    I'll be day 1 tomorrow and am not sure what to do.... I can start another FET, but will probably have to do it without acupuncture till after transfer as acupuncturist is going on holidays.
    Otherwise I can wait till January, enjoy the first few weeks of the year, without stress, etc. and do it in a month's time.

    I'm not sure if doing FET without acupuncture is a good idea. I feel pregnant twice while having been prepared with acupuncture, with IVF first, then FET, but had subsequent miscarriages. I don't know if acupuncture helped in staying pregnant?! I don't want to jinx myself and get a BFN and feel like it is because I didn't do the acupuncture.
    Any thoughts?

    If it was me i'd wait until the new year love.

    Have a blow out over xmas and new years and enjoy yourself and then start fresh in the new year. I didnt have accupuncture with any of my transfers and have had success, I think it all comes down to what you feel comfortable with.

    Best of luck with whatever you choose xxx

    Yep, I'd wait, too. But it really depends on where you're at and whether you can wait.
    Good luck!

    I myself chose to wait- but my t/fer would have been Xmas eve!
    I'd like to enjoy this busy, stressful time- without adding more appointments and stress into the mix.
    That being said- I really felt ready for a break anyway.

    Hope that helps

    Good luck!

    Thanks everyone! Have decided to have another month off (last month I didn't have FET due to our wedding ). As you said it will be already stressful enough with the X-mas holidays and on top of that I have my parents and sister staying here for another week. I'm happy now with this decision, although I think I might start regretting this in about 10 days time and the other 20 days will go very slow... Oh well tough luck
