Preparing My Body

Some tips I found that women utilize before IUI or IVF:
  • Detoxify liver: drink tons of water daily
  • Eat healthy and avoid caffeine, alcohol, processed junk, ect.
  • Warm the abdoment: heating pad daily and eat warming foods like ginger. Ginger tea everyday!
  • Moderate excercise.. nothing too strenuous.
  • Visualize the pregnancy
  • Fresh pineapple juice or fruit after IUI
  • Drink milk daily (damn that'll be hard)
  • Take DHA (important for fetal brain development) and multi-vitamin

Everything sounds good... except for the heating pad, which sounds excessive and counterintuitive--isn't excess heat the enemy of sperm?
