We transfer 1x hatching AA and 1x expanded AB. No more assisted hatching on the expanded AB embryo. Whatever! His target is one implantation. I want to be free from guilt! I just let him decide.
What is next? Bed rest or free to move around? What is the definition of bed rest anyway? Lay down on bed for 24 hours x 8 days = 192 hours or lay down whenever I want.
The nurse told me I am free to move around. But, the Taiwan Ivf doctor has given me an ivf schedule in the past. It says bed rest. Fly back to Philippines day 5 post transfer. I feel some of my friends are over doing it. Pee on diaper. Actually, I was somewhat convince to follow suit. I am afraid to get the diaper rash. I brought a bed pan with me. Nothing to lose, if I overdo it. For me, this is investment vs sacrifice issue.
Personally, I am not convinced that bed rest is a neccessity. But, I don't want to feel guilty of my stubborness. I had full bladder prior to the embryo transfer. I cannot hold it any longer. As the call of nature dictates, I stood up in less than 30 minutes after the embryo transfer. I have to go to the clinic on Thursday anyway. My bed pan is now useless.
I will just maximize laying down on my hotel bed. Ching, ching, ching. Are there slot machines in the hotel room? ^.^ My next question: how to beat boredom?
