Hey Beckers...how many eggs did you get? im afraid now is the time you really need to drink loads especialy if you had 10+ eggs as OHSS can set in try to add some fitness drink to that too it can really help ...good luck with your little ones...

Beckers I too am wondering just like Luchia-what is this water and milk thing about???

The only time I had to drink water was when I was going in for the transfer they needed a full bladder to see better on the ultasound for good placement of the embryos. Of course also a little more fluid intake before blood draw but never heard about a litre/amount given and what about milk?????

Hi I am new here and I am in the UK.

I had my first ET (3rd cycle attempt) on Friday and am now on the 2ww.

I was told to drink at least 2-3 litres of liquid a day including at least 1/2 litre of milk. That may be more of a protein thing though as I am a vegetarian.

I think it's healthy anyway to drink that much liquid a day. Don't they recommend 2 litres a day anyway??!!
