What medications did you take post-transfer?
I was just reviewing my protocol...and it looks like I'm supposed to continue supplemental progesterone (PIO) and estrogen tablets for 10 whole weeks following a (successful) transfer! 
1st PIO (again) tonight...here goes everything!

After a successful IVF cycle you'll have to continue meds for the first trimester or you'll miscarry. I was shocked when I found that out!
I was on Vivelle and endometrin after my FETs.

@Leialou: I don't know why, but for some reason I was surprised about the Estrace tablets. Maybe because they aren't part of a fresh cycle? I feel like such a newbie. 
Vivelle=patches & Endometrin=suppositories, right?

@FliegepilzHut: correct! I think my new clinic is going to have me on PIO. I am so not looking forward to that.

@Leialou: Not going to lie...it's not my favorite, either. 
Having said that, I think it could be a lot worse. Hopefully you'll feel the same!

@FliegepilzHut: after a frozen, I was on PIO daily and Delestrogen injections every third day. After a fresh, I'm on Estrace twice a day and Endometrin three times a day. What does your clinic normally do after a fresh?

@FliegepilzHut: I'm also on Lovenox blood thinner and a steroid, so I made a chart to check off the different doses each day so I won't forget anything!

@momazon: I only have 5 days of a steroid. And I took my antibiotic tonight. I definitely have to keep a chart of sorts!
