Scheduling our first IVF appointment for number two soon and hoping someone can remind me the guidance on alcohol and transfers. Is it zero alcohol as soon as I start meds or only after the actual transfer? For the first we had numerous back to back rounds of retrievals and transfers so I just didn’t drink for a couple years, but now coming off BFing number one and trying to schedule our next transfer asap while still being able to fully participate in an upcoming destination wedding.

Has anyone switched labs for better lab quality/embryologist experience? Wondering if there is a significant difference between labs. We got poor results at our current clinic and, happens that our clinic is rated lower on SART website.

Thanks.
