massages while stimming for IVF?

Anyone have experience doing this?  I try to get them regularly and am debating if I should get it in before I start stims or if it's okay to wait.  TIA!
TTK 9/06 / TTC 10/08 / Twins 12/11 / Life Blog
5 REs + 3 surgical hysteroscopies for septum/lap + 3 failed IUIs
IVF w/ICSI/AH & acu = BFP!, unexplained spontaneous m/c @ 8w2d (our little girl),
FET w/acu = BFP!, B/G twins!, lost MP @19w, dx w/funneling cervix @20w,
twins nearly lost to IC @21w, saved by rescue cerclage, 17P & 16w of bedrest
Our twins born @36w4d via CS when A came foot first

Thankful for every day

    My RE said I could do them but not to let them touch my feet. Maybe check with your RE?

    I'm glad you asked this, I have a massage booked for Saturday and just finished my Femara (IUI will be next Wednesday).

    Me: 32 - Stage II Endo / DH: 36 - Low count and morphology (1%)
    IUIs 1-3 BFN, lap Dec. 2010, IUIs 4-6 BFN
    IVF w/ICSI #1 - ER 2/8: 24R 19M 9F ET 2/13 2-5 day blasts (no frosties) = BFP - b/g twins!

    That's interesting, did they say why no feet?  I don't really like having them touch my feet anyway, I'm sooo ticklish.  Embarrassed

    Oh goodness - I have a massage scheduled mid-way through my stimming as a way to relax and I love having my feet rubbed!
    Married 08.06
    Started TTC 05.08
    Me: Stage II endo, borderline high FSH
    DH: perfect
    1 lap, 5 IUIs = 4 BFNs and 1 c/p
    2 IVFs, 2 FETs = 1 BFN, 1 c/p, 1 ectopic and finally a sticky BFP in May 2011!

    1 FET in Aug 2013 = BFP!
