New-ish and have FET on Wednesday (child mentioned)

Hi ladies,
It's been a very long time since I've been on here. We are finally trying for baby #2 after more than 6 years! We have an FET coming up on Wednesday and I'm looking for some positive stories. I know my doc will give me instructions, but I completely forget what the orders are for after an FET. How long did some of you have bed rest? Was it strict bed rest or just "light activity". Anything else you did to help with a successful FET? Thanks ladies! So glad to have this community. I knew right where to go when we started back on this crazy train!

Re: New-ish and have FET on Wednesday (child mentioned)

  • During my last FET my doc was very clear that there is no evidence of the bed rest/ no bed rest debate. He simply said that because his office has been recommending 2 days rest that they continue that protocol.

    Positive thoughts and prayers your way! Best of luck

  • There are new studies that show that bed rest is not only not helpful but detrimental to the process. But really who knows!? Good luck with your FET!

  • After my implant we walked around for a while, grabbed lunch, came home and lounged. I did some light house cleaning. Next day business as usual. The only "rest" I did was I didn't work out for a few days.
  • I think it depends on your doctor. They told me light activity and DH doesnt want me doing anything so I have been pampered for close to two weeks now.  But who knows if it will make a difference.  Good luck!
