hi joline
your cycle is not as bad as mine. my cycle range from 36 to 84 days. you may want to seek chinese phyiscian after trying sometime cos i have the same problem and don't ovulate regular. i also on clomid for 4 cycle but did not success. after treating by chinese physician for 11mths and i gave birth to a boy last year.
don't be sad.

IC_69, which physician did u see? is it really true that for chinese physician, they don't allow drinking tea being too 'liang'? i have the habit of drinking tea every morning. Dr adrian said try around 6 cycle. When he saw me tears, he was trying to brighten me up. Just like when my hubby asked what's the side effect, instead of saying bad one, he said we will get twin... each cycle got to take blood test and still not O, will have to increase the dosage.
and thank so much for the encouragement. I feel comfortable pouring my unhappiness here as all of u are so understanding

joline,
please be positive. i have a friend in the same situation and she cried so much when she realised she was not ovulating. she equated that as being infertile and she felt like a failure and a useless woman. even thou clomid did help her to conceive eventually, she continued to label herself as a woman who needed 'help' in conceiving.
i am not sure whether those are the feelings you are getting at the moment. but i just want to emphasize that not ovulating is a common problem in the world today. with increasing pollution, greater stress etc, many women are not ovulating for every cycle. one gynae ever shared with me that the body has the ability to assess whether it is fit enough to be pregnant and will ovulate accordingly. so it is no one's fault whether she is ovulating or not.
the friend i mentioned earlier managed to conceive naturally without any help in her subsequent pregnancies. So, not ovulating now doesn't mean that you don't ovulate at all.
in fact, it's good that you found out now. there are people who tried for months and even years before they decide to seek help from doctor and found out about it.

ezann, IC_69, thanks
Yah, Dr adrian kept assuring me that not ovulating is common, and some people even take clomid for 2nd pregnancy etc to faster conceive.
My AF reported today and has called clinic. now waiting for gynae to revert when to go back for blood test. this mense looks normal than the last one. Hope the last one is an extra mense due to stress. Yes, i will stay positive for the next few months and hope there's good news soon

hi, i'm new here. might want to get pregnant in late 2007 but still quite undecided. anything i should do in the meantime while preparing for pregnancy? i've already done a pre-marital screening from raffles medical before i got married but not sure if that is sufficient. are the screenings at gynaes more extensive?
zhuzhu,
The scan gynae does every visit is to ensure bb's growth & general development is ok. NT scan is a scan to screen for down syndrome. Detail scan is to scan bb's organs. this is to screen organ developmental problem. Hence, these scan require more sophisticated machines. not the normal ones gynaes have in their clinic.
BTW, if u go kk, gynaes do not do scan every visit.

r u the first one? i was there at the clinic too. i saw dr adrian driving into the carpark at ard 9.20am when my car was just at the junction....n when i reach the clinic, he is already seeing the first patient. think i saw u. ur hubby accompany u right? hehe......
ya, dr adrian speaks very fast one.
so must listen carefully in case u miss something out. Dr adrian use scan to determne the no of week bb is, so should be more accurate ba. tat time i think mine is also like ur case. when i go see him, he told me 9 weeks, then the next week when i see him, he told me 11 weeks. Once you go for NT scan at week 12, it should be more accurate liao. so no worry hor....rest more also.
i shift my appt 2 week earlier...cos still abit worry abt the cramp. bb is alright...weighs 360gm now.....everytime see bb, then will feel very happy.

no la...my hubby wear blue t shirt n kakhi bermuda, siting beside me...the one wearing grey tshirt n red was with his wife who is wearing red tshirt. dun mix up....hehehe.....
i stay jurong. u leh?
Dr Adrian didnt tell me my EDD during the 1st trim....only when i ask him...but normally he will give me a printout of the bb scan n on it, EDD is stated. After ur NT scan at week 12, EDD is more accurate, n he will based on that thereafter.
he only take blood pressure and urine test when i ard week 10 or 11......never take my wt b4. i ask him if i need to monitor wt..he say what is impt during pregnancy is the wt of bb not mommy. some mommy gain 10-15kg n their bb weigh abt 4kg...some gain 20-30kg n their bb only weigh abt 2-3kg.....
