Thinking positive... Is swimming OK after BFP with IVF?

Several people have told me that swimming is not permitted after an ER and ET, at least until the 2ww is over.  If I get a BFN, obviously I will go swimming right away (that is, right after I go out for sushi and margaritas).  But if you get a BFP, at what point can you start swimming again?  Thanks in advance.

    after the transfer my RE gave me the OK about 5 days after transfer.  They worry about infection, but once you've had a few days to heal she was ok with me being in the pool.  I didn't do any laps or go on any waterslides - just lounging.

    My RE said to wait until the u/s at 6 weeks.  She said that it is not proven that swimming is bad, but it might be, so why give yourself a reason to second guess if something goes wrong?
