Hi all...

I am going tomorrow for my first IUI procedure and was wondering if anyone had any tips or good luck charms they are willing to share? I am a waitress part time and am supposed to work tomorrow night but thinking I should skip it to relax for the night...any thoughts? But then again I thought maybe it would be good to just go about my day and not put too much pressure on it. I also have heard about pineapple...any thoughts there?

Thanks for any and all advice!!!

    I don't have any good tips other than keeping busy! I had my IUI's in the morning and went to work in the afternoon. It's really whatever makes you feel most comfortable.

    The best of luck for a successful IUI!

    Keep yourself busy. Have a glass of wine what ever you can do to keep busy.

    Good luck.

    There really isn't a lot you can do after the IUI to improve your chances of insemination. Acupuncture before the IUI does help.

    The main thing is staying sane during the two-week wait. I found a project to keep me busy after my two IUIs.

    Best of luck!
