And I wouldn't even contemplate the clinic switch/savings depletion yet...there's time for that, but right now you have a blast in there (and the fact that both blasts - even if the last didn't take - survived the thaw is a very good sign). <br /><br />As far as the exercise, it's a tough one. I, too, go absolutely nuts when I have to limit this. My clinic says absolutely no to cardio. As far as yoga, I think it would depend which kind. But even with a softer form, I'd try not to break a sweat. Excruciating, I know:)<br /><br />I'm sending you all of my positive thoughts.

I'm glad you have a Plan B, if only for your soul to know there's a back-up, but I really really hope you don't need it...I don't exercise in the 2ww, other than walking the dog (not that it's done me much good!)...I eat lots and imagine I am a big fat hen sitting on her eggs!

The first time she proceeded on a normal life after the transfer, swimming, etc. She's really athletic and knew she'd go nuts if she didn't exercise. <br /><br />It didn't stick.<br /><br />So the second try she planned to spend the following week on the couch watching TV and reading.<br /><br />This one worked and she had a cute little baby girl in February 2010.<br /><br />I'm following her IVF #2 model and plan to spend a lot of time sitting on my butt for the next week.<br /><br />My dr. also said no sex or orgasm.<br /><br />I'm sending all kinds of good luck vibes your way! We are on such a similar schedule -- if any of my eggies fertilize tonight we'll transfer on Thursday... I've got so few we won't likely be placed in the position of having to choose how many to transfer.inBetweenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17212548401525577878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6132101063238572308.post-39705890885286470742010-06-15T19:05:30.222-04:002010-06-15T19:05:30.222-04:00I think yoga would be fine - the key is not to get...I think yoga would be fine - the key is not to get overheated or to twist your abdomen around too much.

Our RE told us that light-to-moderate exercise is fine then--brisk walking, yoga, Pilates--but not sure if that would also apply post-FET.<br /><br />Our RE has told me to avoid anything that elevates my heart rate too much (he's never said what "too much" is, but I keep it under 140) and to avoid elevating my body temperature. . . so no hot tubs or saunas, and where I live, no exercising outdoors (except just after dawn or after sunset).<br /><br />I am hoping that this FET is "it" for you.

(You're doing it for me, so it's only fair...) And if you DO mind, TOUGH! It's not like you can stop me! HA! <br /><br />I've never had a transfer, but don't exercise during the wait. This is because I am lazy, and I'm afraid to do anything that might jeopardize my chances. (Except drinking coffee...)

I'll be rooting and hoping that this is a sticky bean. <br /><br />You asked about the intralipid transfusion and my RE is a big proponent of testing for immunological reasons behind failed IVFs. So we did a whole bunch of testing and found that I tested bordeline on one test and heterozygous for MTHFR, hence, the intralipid infusion and the heparin. Some studies have shown that intralipid infusions assist in implantation, but it's still pretty controversial.Soozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16180558301820706509noreply@blogger.com
