Hello, I just did FET, transferred 2 blasts end of Sep, BT 16 Oct, it was BFN. During the 2ww, i was feeling so bloated, bloated like as if i just did egg retrieval. I was quite hopeful as HCG does cause bloating. Only after BFN then i thought it maybe the effect of Crinone. Then after the...

yes i did before both times negative & they were also negative on blood tests. There are girls who said they can sometimes see a faint line getting darker as days goes by if they are positive. but then again don't think too much. Home test kits sometimes cannot detect when your HCG level is not...

By the way is anyone with Virtus Fertility Centre? Plan to go there if my next FET fails. I want to know what is the waiting time for fresh cycle at Virtus.

mine was quite bad on my 2nd fresh cycle as well. drink lotsa water (can mix with isotonic drinks like pocari sweat), eat egg whites. Also heard that can increase your sodium & potassium intake to reduce bloatedness. So maybe u can try taking salty food too.

yeah i was in fact very hopeful for this July's cycle. Everything was looking good (except for mild OHSS) till i started to bleed 3 days before my BT. in fact i was still hopeful even I was bleeding as many ppl bleed even they are BFP. So when the nurse told me it was negative I felt totally...

My 1st fresh cycle in Feb was a complete flop, transferred a D4 with nothing left to freeze Just did my 2nd fresh cycle at KKH end July. transferred 2 early blasts but BT results was BFN. thankfully we still got 2 early blasts for FET. But somehow failure of this fresh cycle, i can't help but...

yes for FET that is the most nerve wrecking part.

yeah one of my hubby's client who is a doctor. she said that FET has it advantages too. because your body is in a better condition as you are not subjected to stimulation jabs & all.

year i agree...initially it sounds scary. but once u are on it, it is bearable actually. i even got numb to the jabs liao.

I am same age as u. yeah i am also thinking about its my egg quality issue. so i am trying improve my diet & lifestyle, hoping it will improve the egg quality. this is your first IVF as well?

Yes there is no end to such questions. Like there are so many things to talk about under the sun, moon, stars & sky. Why must they always harp around the topics of getting married & having kids. And I dunno why they dun understand some ppl are happy being single or not having kids. Its their...

yeah we need to stay positive. in order to do that, we need to stay away from ppl who gives out negative vibes.

yeah i find that whichever fertility treatment ppl want to get its their choice. We should respect them & not keep insisting ppl they should try this try that. yes i know what you mean when friends saying you are sensitive. but becos they are insensitive, you become the sensitive one. my that...

yeah so i didn't even bother telling her I am going for ivf, god knows what will come out from her mouth when i tell her that. i have put her in my toxic list already. By all means avoid talking to her.

I am so glad to come across this thread & i know I am not alone. Married for 5yrs plus, TTC for 3yrs. We had tried TCM, iui & recently ivf. All unsuccessful. For the past 3yrs I have my fair share of insensitive comments & tactless remarks from ppl around me. Of course during CNY we can't avoid...
