I guess doing a saline infusion hysterectomy just before IVF could be a plus as well?????

I haven't heard of the saline wash...my RE didn't do that with my first IVF cycle. I'll have to ask about that!

Here are a few things my RE suggests to avoid during a cycle:

- Caffeine
- Weight-lifting
- High-impact aerobics
- Abdominal exercises
- Too much sun
- Hot tubs/saunas

Here are a few things my RE does/suggests to do as it relates to the transfer itself:

- Gives valium orally prior to transfer to help you relax
- Transfer is done on full bladder (I think this is typical)
- Lay flat for one hour after transfer
- Bedrest day of transfer and day after

I've also heard to eat pinapple core. :-)

My accupuncturist said to eat pineapple core starting the day of ET for 5 days. It's a delicious treat, so why not. But, she said don't do it other times during the cycle or you could become too acidic.

just had my ET on Sat..nurse said to eat proteins and dairy..relax and take it easy and dont walk in high heels,lol..but am trying to do whatever it takes..I even had a 2 weeks sick leave to rest at home :)

Thank you Dream...I am doing everything so far but the high heels. I am so short I wear heels daily, but I am going back to flats right now so I can get use to it. Thanks

@ Dream - How many did you TF? I wish you the best of luck and know they are resting in for a nice long time.
