First day for my first IVF in Stockholm

Post by kinababy »

Today, Oct 16, 21st for the period, I started my IVF treatment. 0.9ml/day
with Suprecur nose spray. It lasts 3 weeks.
Kina means China in Swedish. I'm a Chinese lady at Sweden. My baby will have a chinese passport the same as me.
Hope every step go smoothly!

Several questions. Hope to get your kind answer.
1. Can I continue to have daily multi vitamin with the while treatment?
Any other diet I shall pay attention to?
2. Now I practise yoga and bicycle spining several times each week. How many days shall I have a break after releasing aggs? Or I should stop after implantation.

Good luck for all of us!

Congratulations!
My doctor told me to switch to pre-natal vitamins before the retrieval, because it is important to get enough folic acid.

Also, once I started the stimulation medication, I was told to cut back on exercising because my ovaries were getting really big--they are still big, and I am now 6 weeks pregnant. You should ask your doctor!

Another question--are you actually going through In Vitro (IVF), or some other kind of fertility treatment? I ask because you mentioned releasing your eggs, and in IVF, they are retrieved.

There are different exercise recommendations for different treatments. You should check with your doctor!

Hi Kinababy,

I started mine on the 16th of October and I am on Suprefact, I was told to take prenatal vitamins as it helps a lot.

For the exercise talk to your Doctor. I am doing Yoga and some aerobics but on a light note

Will be looking out for u to share our experiences

I asked the nurse and it's OK to continue yoga

It's better to stop some heavy exercise. I could have multivitamin for pregnant women.
To RSC, I'm doing IVF. You are right. It's retrieve, not release
Thanks for your reply!

My dh is at another city. I will flight back to home this weekend. I think it's better to stop flight during egg growing after period, retrieve, implanation.
How about sperm? My dh should release his sperm 3-7 days before the retrieve, right? It's said that 3-7days's break gives the best quality sperm.
