1st ET today, some questions
Hi all,
Ive accepted and fully emersed myself into the IVF thing now. Ive given up dairy (to improve sinuses), coffee and alcohol entirely and feel so much better for it. Had my 1st ET today, had one 4-cell embryo and another that was frozen. There are also another 4 that are still developing and they will let me know in a few days if they will reach 4-cell stage and be frozen. Not sure if this is good or not, no one at IVF clinics tends to tell you what is 'usual', i guess there is no 'usual'. Anyway, i was happy to have 6 eggs fertilised.
Today, literally whilst i was in the chair and 30 seconds before the embyro was put in, a had some period-like cramping in the abs- strange. it went away and now, 8 hours after ET, i do feel some slight cramping or 'something' in the stomach. Not sure what the go is there. Im just taking it in my stride and doing everything that i normally do- am completely not stressed and quite content really just plodding along for the tww.
any tips from you guys? i feel like i should be doing something- acupuncture? some kind of herb? meditation? Im currently breathing energy into my stomach area- a technique ive learned through doing yoga. Any other tips? i dont know, maybe i should jsut be doing nothing in particular...
Many thanks, B.
