My facility only requires 20 of bedrest after the transfer. I have decided to put myself on bedrest and I wanted to know from you how long was your bedrest before getting your BFP! Any answers and thoughts will be appreciated! Thanks so much!

2nd IVF Oct/Nov 06-By the grace of God BFP!
The 1.IVF I took it easy for 2 weeks..really easy - reading, watching DVDs, eating... 2.IVF I was literally shovelling snow (we had a huge storm here and DH was out of town) 3 hours after ET. Not sure if there is a right or wrong requirement for bedrest...I would say do what you do normally but don't overstress yourself (i.e. I never went jogging after ET but decided to do very long walks instead).
After my FET which was a success:) they had me lie down for 20 mins and asked me to take rest that full day thats it......i just took it easy for the next 2 days that too not complete bed rest....and started my routine after 3 days...no exercises though..just driving to work etc....so do whats best to u and what the Dr advises
After my only successful transfer, I rested for about 20 minutes and then did quite a bit of walking as I had to travel home that day. I walked a lot during my 2ww as I had mild OHSS and I was more comfortable walking the dogs than sitting down.
I would say do whatever you feel comfortable with! Good luck to you.
Cheers
