Loops – Thank you Ohhh… good luck - I hope this is your month!

I must admit I am a little addicted to BB and I have an appointment this Saturday to get a referral back to our FS to try for #2 .

We did allot different when we got our BFP compared to our first two attempts. Here is a quick list (I hope this is ok to post in here N2L):

DH
- Cut out all Alcohol/ refined sugars and caffeine (including chocolate)
- Drank more water (he used to drink none!)
- Ate pumpkin seeds
- Underwent acupuncture weekly
- Took menevit
- Took tablets from our acupuncturist
- Ate more fresh vege and fruit

# We didn’t see an increase in his 2million count but the quality was much, much better (hence the 5 snow bubs)

ME
- Cut out all Alcohol/ refined sugars/ caffeine (including chocolate – I ate carob)
- Drank more water (bout 1 ½ liters p/day)
- Ate only full fat dairy
- Underwent acupuncture (lead up, before & after transfer)
- Took elevit (did this for all cycles)
- Ate more fresh vege and fruit
- Had honey every day
- DTD night before
- Transferred 2 x embies
- I stayed on bed rest for 3 days (at least I stayed on couch rest and watched allot of TV!)
- Avoided all hot showers (made sure temp was only luke warm and did not place my belly under shower stream and kept time short)
- Kept feet warm (at suggestion of my acupuncturist)
- Tried to stress less about the outcome ( Yeah right! That one didn’t go so well, ha, ha !)

ShanD – Good Luck! It’s a hard one… to POAS or not to POAS?? I am with Loops… I am a POAS’er, although I was a nervous wreck until my BT confirmed my BFP so make sure if you do that you can handle the wait or test at your clinic early if you get those magical two lines ('ing that you do if you test!)

Blossom – ’ing that it was implantation bleeding for you…. when is your BT?

TMCL – I have only done 1 x FET and that was a medicated cycle. If I remember correctly I had BT’s leading up to transfer and wore estrogen patches to thicken my lining as it was a little on the thin side. I used progesterone support as well. Good Luck for your up-and-coming transfer and I hope it is a sticky one!
