Hello mesara dear... dun stress har..stress no good.
Since yours is FET, not so critical to eat many egg whites or high protein food as no risk of OHSS which only occurs in fresh cycle. So normal 1 to 2 eggs daily provides good enough protein. Make sure healthy balanced diet, continue pre-natal supplement (make sure at least 400mcg folic acid) and keep well hydrated.
Can eat foods to boost uterine lining such as red bean soup. If taking raspberry leaf tea, it is advised to avoid after ovulation.
Can also start to eat some foods good for implantation as suggested by many friends here: avocado, golden kiwi, brazil nuts, walnuts, longan red date drink (skip this at times when you feel too heaty or constipated). Durian is very heaty so take occasionally only and drink more water.
my clinic's guidelines for post transfer include these foods to avoid: raw, oily and spicy foods as they may cause stomach upset, and also avoid watermelon, papaya, pineapple or banana which may cause uterine contractions. I just avoid these during entire cycle.
TCM acupuncture can resume towards end of AF if your doc is confident of different acupressure points to adjust intensity. Some docs prefer to do on the back with electrical pulse which is a more intensive treatment and usually requires after af ends. Don't worry, just let your tcm doc know and he/she should be able to advise what is best for you.
All the best to you on your FET cycle. Stay positive and jia you!
