Tell me I didn't ruin it

I had my transfer earlier in the week. All went well. We had about an hour ride home. After I got out of the car, I took a few steps, and my ankle turned in. I fell flat on my stomach, hard. I'm okay, but I can't help but feel like what I did will impact potential implantation. I've started to blame myself for being so careless. What do you guys think? I know some ladies go to the point of bedrest after transfer, so what happened to me can't be good.

Re: Tell me I didn't ruin it

  • I promise, if this embie was going to implant, that won't ruin it.  There is so much room and padding, your embie wouldn't even notice.  Now, if you were far into your pg, then I'd suggest getting checked out, but your chance of a BFP is just as high as it would've been.  Also, many clinics don't even request bedrest after transfer.  Good luck!

  • I agree with the other girls - I think you're ok! The nurse told me after my first transfer that it's like a speck of dust in a peanut butter sandwich - that embryo isn't going anywhere! Good luck!

    TTC since March 2012
    Dx: Unexplained IF, Arcuate Uterus, Minimal Endometriosis, Poor Embryo Quality
    Tx History: 1 Injects+TI, 5 IUIs, 3 IVFs, 1 FET = all BFN and full of heartbreak
    Plan: Waiting to see if our potential donor is a match for DE IVF #1


    Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.

  • We are vary close in dates :) my beta is June 3rd
    Everything crossed for you [-O<
  • Totally get the nerves- I'm nervous after my IUI's about lifting groceries or anything strenuous, so I'm sure that was scary. Agree with all above that you couldn't have screwed it up, but I get the stress! Good luck!

  • I understand about being worried, I know it's hard not to!  I agree with everyone else that it won't effect implantation, and I like @J&amp;D2007's analogy... it's not going anywhere.  Fx for a good beta!
