Did you drive yourself to your transfer?

[Anonymous]

I have had a mock transfer and drive to and from but was wondering if there’s any reason not to drive myself to and from my actual transfer. I also drove to and from an IUI (it worked but was chemical).

You definitely can, it's not like you'll have anaesthesia or discomfort. But I preferred to be as restful as possible,. Even if the main benefit was psychological.

I think so, but I don’t remember. It was NbD.

Yes, I drove myself to my transfer. It was totally fine, not like a retrieval or anything. And I actually kind of appreciated being alone afterwards on the drive home, just listening to the radio and not having to talk to anyone. Then when I got home I took a mile-long walk because I was restless, and got a BFP two weeks later. Good luck, OP, I am wishing you success!

I drove myself . The whole transfer is this big inflection point on the process that is ultimately pretty uneventful. You will be fine driving home unless you feel you need some emotional support.

I drove myself to two transfers without any problems.

Yes. I drove myself for all IUIs, and then later transfers. DH was deployed or he’d normally have gone with me. You only typically need a driver when you are sedated, like for a retrieval.

DH drove me, but I could have driven myself if I needed to.

It's nice to have your partner with you though for that moment!

I drove myself and was all by myself, even had to run in the parking lot afterward in torrential rain (it was successful). It’ll be okay!
