Bedrest after ET poll

Just a quick note to tell everyone that voted in the bedrest after ET (egg transfer) poll thanks! My RE is pretty strict and says three days of complete bedrest after transfer. In their opinion that translates into laying flat on your side, stomach, or back and only getting up to pee. Ick. It is tough! I've read that there is no evidence that bedrest improves anything so I was really curious to see what others did. It turns out that the majority of you do two days of bedrest. Seems fair to me!

With Chase I did three strict days and we got pg. On IVF #2 and #3 I did three strict days and nada. On IVF #4 I did 2 days of strict and then spent most of day three a little propped up because I just couldn't lay anymore and we got pg w/the twins. So I really think that while it can't hurt, it's not necessary to be completely flat. This time I plan on spending most of the time propped up on the couch watching Mamma Mia and all my other girly movies.

Hoping everyone had a fantastic weekend, we went nonstop and I'm exhausted!!! Last week was rough at school and I'm really hoping this week goes better! I can't wait for Friday night, I'm so excited about Rod.ney!!!
