I have retrieval tommorrow..What do I expect?? any tips?? I also have transfer this week! I have heard several things ladies have tried,but I was never in this place before so never paid attentions. I heard something about pineapple juice??.... Any advice, tips, and comments about retrieval or transfer??
Most people are completely asleep for retrieval. I had some cramps and discomfort afterwards, but by 48 hours post-retrieval I felt completely fine.
Pineapple core is supposed to help with implantation. It's specicially the core and not the juicy outer rings, which is a little chewy, but a piece a day isn't so bad. Brazil nuts are also supposed to help, but you're only supposed to eat one brazil nut/day because of other chemicals that they have in it. I've also heard orange underpants bring good fertilty karma, but I don't know how much stock to put in that!
Good luck!!!
Good luck!!!
