Everyone is told different. Straight after they transferred the embryos - after they took the equipment out of me, I was told to stand up!!! Once I got home I kind of took it easy for a few days. My sister( who is now six months pregnant) was on her honeymoon in Thailand during her very early stages of pregnancy - and possibly around the time just before implantation, and was doing body-boarding, surfing, drinking alcohol, not getting much rest, having sex, jumping about etc...
I read everywhere - BED REST after transfer - but staright after transfer I had a 10 min walk to the train station, one hour on a train, 15 minute wait at a cold busstop, then a 15 minute walk from the busstop to my house. When my result comes back as negative, I know I will only blame myself and put it down to not resting immediately after transfer. But my clinic just said it was perfectly fine to move about.
Strange what we all get told hey?!!
