I am just preparing, you know? I know they said to abstain like we did for IUI so like 3-4 days before retrieval, but was curious what some of the successful people did as far as abstaining?
I was told as soon as start stiming drugs if you want to "boom Boom" in your words! - must use condom - as stimming drugs can affect development if by a miracle you were to fall pregnant - kind of wierd after all those years TTC - then been told you must use condoms!! Doc said definite no from ER to testing day to me .

Others might be difrernt - said no 'playing' for DH for 48 hours before ET as spermies need to be at optimum.

Hope this helps - "happy boom boom" :wink: :wink: :wink:

Great news Steph - can't believe you kept quiet like the others said for nearly 24hours - good luck for next bloods.

I think we need to organise a baby naming comittee you cannot make a child have any of those oddball names - LOL

Hey guys back on. So I have a question, what day do you start counting from if you get pregnant with IVF? I was just curious.

Hey Stephjim - YAY, we're cycle buddies!! To answer your question, you count your ER day as your "O" day. My Dr still counts from date of last AF, though. So by then, you're technically 2 weeks or so.

shut up I KNOW a chick (ok yeh she is ODD) who's son's middle name is Turtle. If you knew HER name it may explain it, but I can't really type it here. NO worries, I'm not THAT retarded haha I won't name my kid turtle or something that makes it sound like the kid came out at the ripe old age of 90!

they chart from your LMP (last menstral period) start day...that is why a pregnancy is technically 10 months (40 weeks).
