Optimizing Embryo Transfer and Dealing with the 2-week Wait
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 тра 2014
- I have received many questions about the best way to assure a successful embryo transfer. What activities can I participate in following ET, how long do I have to wait, what can I do to help the embryo "stick", etc. Also, dealing with the dreaded 2-Week Wait between transfer and the first beta hCG pregnancy test. In this blog post, I address many of those questions.

Thanks
Thank you ☺️
Thank you
Thank you.
Just a small message to everyone over the world watching this, to say I am thinking of you and know what you're enduring x
Thanks so much for your advice going through ivf and kept thinking about how to increase my chances of embryos sticking. I hope and pray everyone that watches this has a successful Ivf cycle. God bless
Kelly Marks amen
Kelly Marks Amen
Ameen
Amen in Jesus name AMEN.
Kelly Marks thank you 🙏
You're a gem of a person. The consultation fees are sky-rocketing. You're giving out this info for free. What a lovely woman. Keep up the good work. Thank you so much for it. God bless you.
Thank you for sharing . Just had my FET and now just waiting for TTW. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻Prayers to all the IVF women❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻
So how was your outcome ?
Was it successful??
You sold be 3month gone no
Just today had my 1st IVF. Hearing patients were worried to pee out the embryo almost made me laugh as I thought exactly the same! Just an instant thought that enteredy mind! Of course I get it, its not possible, thanks for confirmation :) but looks like my husband is the one who will need to work on letting go. Love that quote. Good luck everyone on TWW🍀💕
Going through IVF now with my transfer set for 2 days from now. Wish I had found you early to listen at home while going through everything. Your way of explaining things and your delivery is a breath of fresh air. You seem like such a great nurse and I say that as an ER RN myself. Thank you for posting these videos.
God bless you! My doctor said NO SEX 😢until they hear a heartbeat. All the hormones are making my libido go crazy and I just couldn’t take it anymore. I was worried I screwed up by having sex day 7 after embryo transfer and again a day after my positive HCG test. I appreciate your advice. You helped not worry so much. I’m hoping my 2nd hcg will be good 🙏🏻
Love how you explained it all...especially saying it's not going to fall out- funny!
Lol. True
This is exactly what I needed to hear. We can only do so much. We have to embrace Surrender and trust
Same here🙏
I love this! So true, the main key is to let go. We have no control over creating life. If the Lord wants baby to stick, baby will stick. :) Also the 2 week wait is basically what we go through every month when we are waiting to see if we are going to get our period. So just relax & let it happen. We will all be ok, no matter what.
Best Advice ever❤❤❤for all women going through the 2 -week wait!!!
Transferring tomorrow! Ahhh so excited and nervous, more excited. Baby dust to all of you reading this. ❤️💫
Best wishes!! Baby dust to you too!

How did it go? How are you now?
Have u got success dear
Thank you!! My Dr said their was a study where there were
x number of embryos they took one group and had them jump up and down many times and another group who did not and there was no difference in the number of successful embryo implantation.. in other words the jumping up and down did not prevent or disable implantation. Now, of course she wouldn’t recommend you do that. But that information really gave me peace about the process..
My first FET, I watched comedies during TWW just to keep me happy and stress levels down 😊
So, 4th transfer for me ( today), 4th time I watch this video. I don't know what it is but her voice has the abilitiy to calm me. Thank you.
Hi pls tell me have u got success
Literally 2 days away from a fresh transfer... and this has been the most ... informative and inspiring video I have watched. I’ve read tons of articles and watches so many videos ... and in 14 min you have managed to calm all my fears anxieties!!!
@Abby Padilla, was it successful?!!
SO refreshing from all of the other "advice" out there! Thank you so much.
Hello! I honestly wish I could meet you in person and give you the world's biggest hug!!! Your words were so incredible and reassuring. This is exactly what I needed to see today!! In the middle of my 2ww - with no symptoms and just keep waking up feeling so defeated (especially when I did get pregnant with IUI I had symptoms immediately.) But I will choose to let it go until Saturday - test day!! THANK YOU!
Hello I just did my embryo implants eight days ago and I don’t have any symptoms well I have a little bit of sore breast and a little bit of aching cramping on my left side but I’m not sure if it’s my period because I’m supposed to start tomorrow and I’m getting really stressed about it did you ever have any symptoms and how many days did it take to get the symptoms??
Hope you got ur positive result and healthy baby
Even seven years later this is so reassuring and eases my worry. Thank you for your encouragement and candor. Love you for this!!
Hey, there. Hope you're doing okay. This was a fantastic video. You answered them in a brilliant manner. I'm glad you're doing this. Keep up the lovely work. Thank you so much!
Transfering tomorrow, please pray for me. Good luck to all the mom to be out there.
Thank you. They are great advices. I’m trying to let go and relax through the 2 weeks wait. Just had transfer today. Keep my fingers crossed.
Awesome advice. I have had a transfer today and I feel a lot calmer after watching this. Thanks heaps.
OMG. I love this nurse! Just came back from my ET. Found myself getting caught up in people advising total bed rest, special diets, alternative medicine etc etc, all of which make you more stressed if you haven't done them. Thank you for a reality check. Great words. xx
I needed to hear this as I’m preparing for my FET soon. Thank you thank you thank you! 😍 You’re an angel!
I watched so many videos truthfully but this is the best theurepatic video. It ic relaxing and calming so thanks..
Great honesty and perspective. Thank you. I am currently 2 days post a day 6 embryo transfer and although I was initially thinking I would wait for the beta, my mind was recently considering an at home pregnancy test in a week. Your advice helped me reconsider this as there is no point in putting my mind in a dark place if it is a false negative.
Thank you! I’m a very active person and I just had my transfer last Thursday. I was on bed rest that day and somewhat the next day. But after that I felt like I was going crazy just sleeping, reading and watching videos all day. By Saturday I went for a 2 mile walk and moved so much that I did 17k steps and Sunday I went golfing for two hours and by that night I felt like I must’ve over worked my body and it’s not going to work. I cried and told my husband I must’ve done something wrong. And then today I took a pregnancy test (even though I told myself I wouldn’t) and it was negative. I was heart broken but I know it’s only been 4 days. Your video has given me so much comfort! Thank you so so much
Just had embryo transfer yesterday! This was great to hear thank you ❤
AriFerrari how is everything?
Hi have u got success
Just wanted to say thank you... i had a failed IUI just a few days ago.. and what you said is helping me, not just for the next IUI or IVF, but in general. Noone seems to understand the turmoil of the two week wait.
I love this video, your statements express my sentiments exactly and this is by far he most helpful information that a woman going through IVF, IUI etc. can receive.
Hey, there! This was wonderful. You're so knowledgeable! It's amazing the way you speak. I needed this information. Thank you for providing it. Keep up the superb work.
Thank you! I just had my embryo retrieval yesterday and now I'm thinking about the next steps. Thank you for the reassuring information.
Really the best video I’ve seen on this subject so far and I’ve watched thousands. Thank you.
I SO needed to hear this. I’m a super active person and have been for a really long time. I lost my first transfer and was SURE it was because I did some
Moderate exercise. I just had my 2nd transfer and have been in my head about how not to F this one up. Hearing it really isn’t about me and it’s more about the embryo is JUST what I needed to hear ❤️
dear nurse you're so honest and at the same time so warm and protective when you talk. thank you for your advise I absolutely agree on everything you say.. what may be may be. and there is nothing we can do to alter that. xxx
Thank you for doing this video. Brilliant advice. I start my first IVF cycle next week.
Thank you so much I always find all your videos so encouraging, I just got my transfer 6 days ago and watching you has put my mind at rest thank you God bless you.
Hey, there. Thank you so much. This was a really nice video. My two weeks just began. I can confirm, it's horrible. It's so hard, my god. Keep up the good work.
This video is old, but it’s so helpful. Very straight to the point and exactly what I need to hear!
Im now on my first cycle of IVF and I have to say I sometimes find myself in my head just going through a numerous amount of scenarios. At times feeling like I got this and it’ll go smoothly and than other times feeling overwhelmed by the doctor visits, bloodwork and sonograms. I appreciate you doing this video, it’s very relevant now and you’re right, I come to the internet to seek information and support that I don’t want to force on others in my circle. I’m lucky I have my husband who is a nurse and is very patient and caring but this is a mental anguish on women. I want to be excited but not let my hopes give out if I get bad news. I’ll remain hope and I also hope everyone else that is going through an IVF procedures gets a chance to watch this video.
This is so relevant in my life. Thank you for your videos. They are impacting women even 4 years later
Thank you for this post. It's so true, if it's meant to be it will work. There is nothing I can do, just stay relaxed, eat and sleep well, be happy and count the blessings I have. :)
Thank you, I spoke about everything as if your were addressing my every concern, it’s nice to know I’m not going crazy
Your videos are the best. Thank you so much for being so positive and encouraging.
i am so grateful to this video. i am on day2 post transfer. you made me calmer.
We're very happy to find the Sher NYC office. I'm in bed relaxing after my embryo transfer today with Dr. Cary Dicken..... Best Dr ever.
This was very timely. Thank you for your time.
This has been so comforting, thank you so much!!
I really like your advice, down to earth. Speak from experience as a patient and as a nurse. It has been 5 days after IUI and surprisingly feel very calm and I am not going to do home test, as you said nothing can change what ever is going to happen. Even before I found you, I act like it is going to happen, I know being positive helps for every thing. I took a couple of days off just to take it easy and I was having back pain. I am over 40 and I know the chance is low, but who knows... what God has for me. Thanks for your honest advice.....
My wife and I are currently going through IVF. Her embryo transfer is on Tuesday and this video helped us to release a ton of stress that might turn into major arguments.
Thank you for your time and kindness to post videos like this one.
This is SUCH a great video! I love it! Thank you for making it!
I'm so happy I found this video. Thank you so much for reassuring me.
Thank you for sharing the information. I'm in the 2 weeks wait now. I couldn't conceive because of thyroid problem. My doctor suggested me to go for IVF. I chose frozen embryo process as it has a really high success rate. I had a wonderful experience! I'm so happy about it!!
Thank you very much! My transfer is scheduled for next month, and I’m a worrier. Making sure I’m doing everything correctly. I’m trying to decompress, and not stress, but it’s definitely challenging. Thanks again for the video 😊
I am so glad I found this!
Hey there. How are you doing? I hope its all good. Thanks a lot for the video. I hope everyone sees his. This will help a lot of people. I wish everyone out there gets whatever they want. Good luck and take care. Lots of love and support.
Best advice ever... Stress free thats the key.
Worth watching. Thank u
I agree
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! Love your energy and your approach :)
Thank you For this great vídeo! You gave me peace. I have my transfer Monday. ❤
Thanks so much for your words. I am on day 6 after my ivf transfer and going nuts overthinking what can I do to increase chances of pregnancy, but you are completely right, is so much what we can do. Trying to relax is the best I can do right now
Thank you for sharing the information. i am going through ivf and kept thinking about how to increase my chances of embryos sticking. I'm in the 2ww now. My doctors said just do the normal activities but don't get too tired. Just keep on praying that this will work and keep on the positive mind. Let God do his job
You are a Godsent! Thanks for your wisdom and advice, this has helped my anxiety so much!
I appreciate this common sense reminder. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this great video!!! This really help me.im about to do my transfer this Wednesday.
Just loved the way you explained it!!!
Thank God I found you! You said everything I needed to hear and more! Made me laugh and overall took a weight off my shoulders. I had my day 3 transfer this past Monday Jan 12th, this is our 2nd IVF attempt. I am remaining as positive as possible yet realize there is absolutely nothing more I can or cannot do to make this successful. Thank you again for posting, you've helped a lot!
Roxanne Bishop how was yr cycle?
Thank you so much for the truth and being realistic. You are absolutely spot on. Stressing over things we can’t control. What’s meant to be through god will and timing will happen. 🙏❤️🙏
Fast saying,
Just be POSSITIVE...!
You know and you can feel what are the things you are capable to do after you have IVF transfer.
So helpful words from you dear.
This video was exactly what I needed. Thanks so much for the advice
Great advice i just completed my transfer today - 2nd IVF cycle... praying for my rainbow
How did it go??
Hope it was a success
Hope u got success
I just want to say, i love ur videos and hope eu keep posting because its been a savior for me. Thank you again,lots of 💕
Thank you 🙏🏻 this was perfect and all I needed to hear during my TWW x
This was the most helpful video. Sincerely thank you.
Thank you so much for that positive energy and advise you givin us 🌺
Best video I have seen about restrictions and two week wait !! My transfer is in two days I will try and take this advice.
God bless you, these are one of the best words I have heard today
Love this. I'm due to have embryo transfer in 5 weeks time. I will do my best to relax and let whatever will be, be. 🤞
Hi have u got success dear
Thank you so much for making this video, I can't tell you how much it helps to hear what you just said, I don't have control over it and it's not my fault when the transfer doesn't work. I've saved this video so I can watch it back when I start thinking maybe it was something I did. Thank you 🙏 Xx
Thank you for your knowledge and advice. Really helped me see things clear
This was really nice! And, this advice actually works! I know because my doctor suggested something similar. And, it was amazing. Thank you so much for this! I'm sure it'll help a lot of people. Keep up the superb work!
I loved the way you tell things. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your insight and knowledge!! I definitely needed to see this today!! 💕
Thank you so much for this video. I’m a surrogate and the first transfer didn’t stick. I was told to be on bed rest for 2 days, and you’re right! It does cause a fear that you might do something wrong. Thank you for the reassurance that I don’t have control either way.
Perfect explanation for those who r going through ivf process. Thanks mam.. Today is 9thday of my transfer and tested at home but negetive so was feeling down.. But after listening u I have hope.. Thanks mam
I needed this so badly!!! I am up for my first FET on August 16th....U just explained it so well!!!!...
Had mine last week.. All the best.
You’re so amazing for doing that! Thank you so much
Best ever talk I have heard about this topic❤❤❤
Thank you thank you thank you, such sound advice. Guilt-free, mindful, science based and personal, you are a gem! So different to all the other websites where conflicting, unproven advice raises stress levels. My advice is to get a dog and love it like your child - it keeps your mind off things and helps you relax!
Thanks. I needed this. Waiting for embryo transfer day. 🌸🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣
Feeling better after watching you talk. You are like a parent giving me these comforting words. I love your practicality advice. I realised not to be too hard on myself because it is beyond our control. Thank you. God bless you. This is a gem!
Thank you so much, so helpful. I needed to here this.
Thank you for sharing the information. I'm in the 2ww now. My doctors said just do the normal activities but don't get too tired. Just keep on praying that this will work and keep on the positive mind. Let God do his job
Praying?
Debby Lastriani Your last sentence here has settled it for me. ‘ Let God do His job’ Amen! No more looking for vids. That’s the word I needed today. God bless.
Had my transfer yesterday! This was very realistic advice it’s in God’s hands woman stay pregnant doing all the “don’ts” and woman stay pregnant as a worry wart. Just stay positive and healthy
omg you just said everything I've been experiencing, every little detail, thank you so much!
Hey there Dear. How are you doing? I hope its all great. I am really happy to hear from you. This is really a great video. This will help a lot of people. I am really sure of it. I wish you all good luck. Lots of love and support.
Thanks so much much for sharing. . love the way you explain it.
This was well said and I appreciate your feedback needed this in this process
Needed this so much! I’m so far on day 6 transfer with almost no symptoms. I think I’m starting to feel a little now. The longest wait ever. God bless you and thank you again
Thank you so much, wish you were my nurse :) keep the great information coming!!!!!!!
