Hi Ladies!
I'm an active member over on 2IF and hope it's ok for me to post my question here. It's been a long journey to get to my FET and it's 2 weeks away (if all goes well). I wanted to hear if any of you tried any of the "old wives tales" of eating pineapple core, wearing socks to bed each night after transfer...I'm willing to try anything that might bring success
Thanks!

**Signature Warning**
I really didn't do anything out of the ordinary. I went home after the transfer and wrapped presents and just kind of rested. I definitely didn't do any bed rest, because my RE didn't recommend it. I just tried to stay relaxed and not get stressed physically or mentally.
Good luck!
