Dr Q..being in the sun after ivf transfer?

May 24, 2008

After bedrest, is it okay to be in the sun? I take my 3 yr old to the pool quite often..and no won't be swimming..just walking in the shallow end with him..but will being in the sun affect implantation?

Also, they said no soap, perfume etc for ret. and transfer...should I avoid that after transfer day too..or just the day of? Will it effect embryos after they've been transfered?

Thanks Dr Q!! (HUG)

The doc told me the same thing and i asked why and he said that the harsh smells may effect the eggies and then the embryos so he said i could (and should LOL) be clean but watch what i was using and no real smelly stuff.

I would guess that hanging out in the pool w/your little man would be a-ok as long as you dont get heat exhaustion?

We dont any sun in wisconsin so i didnt have that worry! LOL!!
