@cumi_kurita hi cumi_kurita..congrats on ur pregnancy! can i chk how did u buy ur lumiglow? TIA for sharing!



I got a Malaysian colleague to transfer the amt for me and then it got posted to her Malaysian address. A bit leceh but my colleague was willing to help out.

Maybe if you have relatives or friends with JB hses, you can ask them for a favour?
 


Salam everyone! Selamat Berpuasa!

Luck wasn't on our side for our recent iui last month so gonna try again in August after Raya.

Skipped this month cos want to concentrate on Ramadan. I'm gonna give it another try before we decide if we shld just do Ivf like the first time, if yes most probably will start Ivf in December after I come back from my holidays. Hub actually don't want me to go through Ivf again but I told him i rather do it than spend money on more iui. Haven't tell my gynae our plans yet but will let him know this coming cycle.

Hope all of you are doing fine! :)

It happened to me too last April. I was 3 weeks late and I thought I was pregnant. The doc at kkh did a scan for anomalies in my insides and then prescribed me pills to stimulate my period and we did ivf right after. Alhamdulillah we are pregnant now.

Maybe it's just our body taking a break? Ask Dr Su to scan you first and then if all is okay, give you the pills.
 
Dr Su can do scanning? Ive seen her 2xs- she prescribe me same meds.i do nt know wat her next steps will ne, mayb those ladies under her can enlighten me...she told me dun proceed iui first..she told me to consult her first...
 
Eid Mubarak to All!! Hope everyone are in great spirits this time of the year..

I am currently in 2WW after FET last tuesday. So far ok. No symptoms yet except for twitches in my uterus this morning. I am taking it easy this time. Feeling positive but dont want to be too hopeful as well.

Benn on bedrest as ordered by my hubby, parents and in laws. Not really required as I was told by the nurses. I was active the last time round and it failed so I am trying it different now.. Only moving around a bit just to get my blood moving.

Attaching a pic of my snowbabies.. Embryologist said they are good. I dont know how to tell so I am taking their word for it..

Insyallah they stick this time round. Amin!

As salam ladies,
I'm new to this forum & not sure how dis works.. I've been TTC for 2.5yrs. Had #1 fresh cycle & then #1 fet at KKH, both failed. Got my BFN BT ystdy :( & today my AF finally came. I am unhappy with their service (and my doctor) & so today I've decided to go private with Prof PC Wong at NUH. My 1st appt will be on 11 Sept '14. Anyone had success or bad experience at KKHIVF to share? How about Prof PC Wong? I read a lot of ladies recomended him.

Hi Qis, warm welcome! Sorry to hear of your 2 failed cycles.. I know how you feel and yeah, its not easy what we are all going through. Hang in there!

I have a friend who did her ivfs at KK. Her 2nd one was a success with twins but that was about 4 years ago with a doc who has already left. She is currently attempting her 3rd there.

I am with Prof PC Wong as a private. I have had 1 failed back in 2011. 2nd fresh stopped halfway last May due to OHSS and currently in my 2WW after FET last Tues. I would say Prof is an experienced person and I feel comfortable being under him particularly my case being challenging. He is a man of a few words though. He goes straight to the point. He will explain when you asks questions but if not, he will just tell you what you need to know. He has a lot of patients so sometimes, its a touch and go. It was a bit hard to take at first as I am someone who likes to ask quite a lot but I got used to it. Some of the questions can be answered by the nurses (CHR). They are friendly and approachble. I find the system at NUH organized but they are always busy so waiting time can take longer.

I had only been to NUH so can't compare. Hope this helps!

Both me & my cousin are under Dr Matthew Lau, and she is lucky with Twins boy & girl in her 1st try, but our medical issues r different, being mine more challenging. I badly want my #2nd fresh cycle to work, coz the amount of injections needed r just plain traumatising.

I saw some commented that nuh gave plenty hours of rest for embryo retrieval and embryo transfer. Is is true??? I was quite shock when I read dat bcoz at kkh the nurse asked me to get up n go home right after I woke up and right after transfer.. I always thot dats strange.
 
Any ladies in their 2ww?? I read in other forums and threads dat some ladies ate a bit of durian, some Brazil nuts, dates, drink goat milk, wear socks to warm the feet, and even go for acupuncture at least once before egg retrieval and once after embryo transfer. I didn't eat and do all these during my previous cycles..

I told my hubby I will do all these for my next cycle, coz I badly want it to work this 1 last try.

Yes. That is true. For retrieval, you will be warded in day surgery ward for almost the whole day. For transfer,
Its only half a day.

I didnt know about KKH. Thought its the same for all..
 
Qis, I had 3 rounds of ivf before. First was fresh aft tt two thawed.

I did all tt. Ate 3 biji durian twice a week, had 5 Brazil nuts everyday to munch in between meals, wore sock, lay in bed all day, only got up to pray, bathroom or go tcm. Took tcm concoction, the tcm dr said I don't need acupuncture. A blessing cz I'm afraid of needles.

And still all 3 cycles I failed. Der is just so much one can do. I see all this as efforts, e rest is up to Him ultimately.

Hv a gd rest :)

Well apparently not. How come so different protocol sey... I remember after my egg retrieval & embryo transfer, I was in a bit of pain & discomfort when I need to walk immediately. I jalan terkengkang2 :(..

I am in a way glad to change hospital to NUH, mudah mudahan rezki I kali nie..;)

They shouldn't have made you move after, esp after retrieval.

Insyallah.. 1 huge thing out of all of these is the waiting.. Can go crazy but good things take its course.. We just need to be patient and have faith in HIM. All the best for you! Holler if you have other questions.. Will try to answer the best I could.. :)
 
Salam Ladies,

First of all, Selamat Hari Raya!
I'm very new here and here's a tad detail of my TTC Journey.

2009 : Married
2011 : Ectopic Pregnancy (Given Methotrexate)
2012 : Ectopic Pregnancy (Given Methotrexate)
2013 : Ectopic Pregnancy (Right Tube Removed)
2014 : Failed Fresh IVF In Jan
2014 : Failed FET In March

Next scheduled Uterus Scraping & 2nd round of Fresh IVF will be in Sept 2014.

Maybe you success IVF sisters can share some tips with me?

Acupunture? (Where)
Pre-natal Supplements?
Diet?
What to do and what not to do?

Thanks in advance :)
 
I'm doing fresh ivf in sep too but on the advise of doc, I will freeze whatever embryo that we get and go for frozen transfer. He said that due to my age, I need to rest more after the egg collection.
Right now, I'm taking dhea, coq10 and conceive well.
 
Hi Chuckles,

Which brand you go for, for the dhea and coq10?
I'm also currently taking blackmore conceive well.

Anyway, sticky baby dust to us!

Salam,

Are you going for acupuncture right now? Any recommendations?
My scheduled 2nd round of Fresh will be in sept. I failed first fresh and first FET.


Marilyn
 
I just took a handwritten report from the nurse at kkh. Need to give a detailed history of my failed ivf to the doc at parkway east. I can't remember all the details.
My current ivf doc actually does acupuncture. I will ask him who are those who need it the next time I see him.
