Hi keep on trying. Jia you.

How's ur experience with prof Wong so far?
 
Prof is v professional and experienced. He makes decisions (& procedures) swift & fast, mayb coz he has seen sooooo many cases.

His team of nurses is awesome.
One nurse even pulled me into a room to console me when she realized tears were welling up my eyes during bloodtest. (I was spotting)
 
Is coffee a big no no even while waiting to do ivf, er?

It's difficult to stay away from coffee. Feels guilty when I take it.

What beverages do you all take？

I waved my coffee machine good-bye 3 yrs ago even though I was a hardcore coffee addict. I only believe in plain water now.

Yes I haven't touched coffee (& coke) for past 3 yrs.. It's my personal choice & conviction to give it up.
(But then again, so many ladies out there drink also can strike lor)

Is it strange that I don't feel any symptoms and no spotting ? Nurse told me if by next wed (1week later ) my mensus not here, I've to call them... why ?
What are the chances of false negative for beta test ?

Sometimes AF will come a few days after stopping the support meds. Also, if after 1 week menses not here, and still negative, they can give you some meds to hasten the menses.

Sore boobs - yes depending on which meds. Water retention - yes, definitely for me. right after ER body naturally readjusted each time.

I'm secretly asking the same qn in my heart..

Whole ivf process, I'm thankful that I felt almost nothing (only bloated for 1 week after egg retrieval)... But spotting red on 11dp3dt so went straight to take bloodtest (2 days earlier)

Spotting stopped immediately when I stopped my vaginal inserts. If AF don't show next few days, I will test!

I've read that some ladies' bodies cannot adjust back, so have to take meds to induce AF. Dunno how true this is?

Haha yah lor, that's why I not pregnant yet I pamper myself w coffee now and then. Hmm but I will try to stay caffeine free as much as possible. Encouraged by all the ladies here who are v disciplined!
 
hi all,
i am new to this thread. i got my BFP on 24th nov from IVF from transferring two 5 day blastocyst on 10th nov.
HCG 24/11 - 232
HCG 26/11 - 477
HCG 30/11 - 3900

i have minor spotting on sunday late night with pink discharge, so i went to kk 24 hr O&G, after a vagina u/s, the doctor on duty say she saw a water bag, however, as it is still very early as i am only 5 weeks pregnant. however on monday, i started to have some fresh red bleeding, it was very little. i immediately went to see dr loh on monday. he gave me proluton jab and up my duphaston and told me to rest more. its been 2 days now, although there is no more fresh red bleeding,but i am still having brown discharge. it comes on and off, and now it seems like it is getting more. i am very worried. can somebody please advise??

I kicked caffeine for 3 yrs also no success yet ah.. I did it coz I couldn't take the guilt.
At first I had "withdrawal symptoms"... Now I don't even crave for coffee at all (I even puked recently when I tried a decaf)

I seriously take this caffeine thingy with a pinch of salt. I've friends who drink & smoke everyday but they are popping babies non-stop.
