Ask her to shut up lah. There are many overweight people succeed in Ivf.

Ahhh! Thanks for that!2WW is 2 Week Wait - that means, blood test will be done 2 weeks after the embryo transfer
Hi sharkles, the queue is until feb already... goodness, im going to see dr tml then i would know when is my schedule.
I have just seen my dr, i am booked for the December slot. Going for the briefing in November. May i check with the rest of u, usually its how many days from day 1 of IVF am i required to go down regularly for scanning? Assuming im on short protocol? I want to roughly calculate the leave. Thanks in advance.if it is KKH they will call you to tell you the appt.
Hianyone has abominal pain after ER? started abominal pain since ytd evening and it always get worse after a meal.
tmlHi
If I m not wrong there will be abdominal pain or discomfort abt few days after the ER
Anyway when is ur ET
Im doing a fresh one. This is my first ivf. So the 2-3 days of scanning is after 10 days of injection right?Hi HavingHope,
If you are doing a fresh cycle, then be ready to go once every 2-3 days for scan.. So that they can monitor the growth of your follicles and adjust your medication accordingly. If you are doing a frozen cycle, depending on whether its a natural or medicated one, the number of scans will be lesser than a fresh one. I just did a medicated FET and did 1 scan before going for ET.
To the other ladies here,
I wanted to ask for FET, it's a 3-day embryo transfer right? I wanted to clarify how old the embryo so can take note of possible implantation period but I guess too kan cheong and forgot.. But I know it's not blastocyst cos the photo didn't look like.
Wanted to ask too for those who did FET, how did you approach your 2ww? Since it's only 3 days mc rather than 17 days..
Thanks in advance!
Did u transfer 2 embryos also?I followed this before my FET, hope it helps u!
Alternate days red bean soup and 2 egg whites
Red date longan daily
Every weekend black chicken soup
Conceive well Gold
TCM plus acupuncture
Sleep with long pants and socks every night, by 11pm
Alternate days soak feet in warm water
Exercise 3 times a week
Good luck to you!
All the best for your ET tomorrow
Hi all, so i presume from the 1st day my menses come up to the day embryo transfer, everything will takes about a month?

For the 2ww there wasn't much changes to my lifestyle. I still go to work as per normal. However diet wise just eat healthier loh.. like what you would do if you are pregnant. I was also told to try doing like exercises like walking. Eat more fruits and vege to prevent constipation..
most importantly stay happy.

Hi bbcripps,Usually u start jabs around cycle day 3, depending on your response, it's usually abt 10-13 days of stimulation jabs, then when 3 or more of your follicle sizes are ideal (around 18mm), they will trigger u that night, n ER is 36 hrs later. Transfer is 2 days later for KK, 3 days later for NUH. But if u have enough good quality embryos they might wait till day 5 for transfer. So abt 3 wks.

Hi Faith,Hi,
After you go for your first scan, you will start injections, and that's when they will schedule you for the scans depending on your follicle and lining growth. So the scans start when you start your injections, not after. The scans are done in the morning and after that you will meet the doc for review and then proceed to the pharmacy to get your medication. You may also need to return to the ivf clinic for further instructions on how to do your injections, etc from the nurses. This is the routine for KKH, Im not sure if it's the same for the other hospitals or medical centres.. Hope this clarifies
My ET happens to be on a friday. I went back to work the following mondayHi Ocling,
You went to work during the 2ww? U didnt stay at home to rest?
Yes it is absolutely normal and for me it got to the point that I could not walk without pain too. But it subsided in around 48 hours before my ET. Good luck to you!anyone has abominal pain after ER? started abominal pain since ytd evening and it always get worse after a meal.
I am very sorry to hear this. But just to be on safe side why don't u continue the vaginal progesterone as I heard implantation also can lead to bleeding as will early pregnancy symptoms. Then call or go to KKIVF Centre first thing on Monday morning. They open at 0730 if I am not mistaken and they won't have many patients at that time. I wish you good luck and hope it is just a false alarm sister.my menses just came, 4 days before blood test, tested paos negative, and it definitely is menses, not spotting or colored discharge, can I stop the vaginal insert already? kkivf center closed already I can't call to confirm, any ideas, sisters?
sis,thanks for your advice and best wishes. hope all the best for you. I will restqsome time and start fighting again.I am very sorry to hear this.

Hi Faith,
This is really helpful. That means i have hope to complete my cycle before CNY. Im with KKH. Cuz dr has already prescribe me medicine to induce my menses from Oct all the way to Dec. Will be taking the med on 11 Dec for 7 days, so i will complete on the 17 Dec. Assuming my menses come within 7 days. Said for eg 24 or 25 dec, then maybe the 3rd day of menses, i will be going for the scan and injection right? Oh my goodness... its the christmas week, hopefully kkivf is open... so it definitely will stretch to Jan 2017.

Hi Faith,Hi HavingHope,
On your 2nd or 3rd day of menses, you will go for the scan, and that's when they will see the results and decide what sort of medication they would want you to start your injections with. I recommend taking at least half day off for that first scan, cos you need to do the scan, review with doc, buy medication and also see the nurse who will teach you how to do the injection.. Could take up the whole morning.
thank you faith05, I will call kk first thing on next monday, my flow is getting a bit heavier, I wonder if I should stop the insert and let the flow come smoothly. from what I read, hcg>5 means the embryo implanted but somehow it doesnt stick. anyway I will call and get the proper closure for my first fresh and fight again when I am ready. hope all the best for sisters on this path.Hi happy0428,
So sorry to hear this.. I was in a similar situation, and it was at first brownish stain on the inserts around 4 days before BT then got slightly a bit more until I fully stopped the inserts then my full menses came. I called up kkh to arrange for an earlier BT, hcg was very low (around 10+) so they asked me to stop the inserts. But it wasn't considered a negative BT so I still had to go back for another BT on the scheduled day to confirm a negative result.
Hi I have done before. Just menses cramps while he did scratching. Will have a bit of blood after that. So bring necessary panty liner with u.Hi..Anyone had endo scratch before start of ivf cycle? I'm going for mine next week..is it painful?
i bfp on my short cycle, long cycle not any chance at all. Why doc gave u long cycle this time? By right if u successful on short cycle should continue using that same successful formulaMy second ivf/icsi using long protocol resulted in two eggs from five follicles. Both are mature eggs but failed to fertilised. Does anyone have advice to share?
Previous ivf/icsi using short protocol also produced 5 follicles, but with 3 eggs, transferred two, one of which helped me conceived my firstborn,
do not take lemongrass as it can induce menses, any other liang food avoidHi All, I am currently on my 2WW. Can't wait for BT next week. I do go out once in a while but mostly staying home to rest, watch movies etc. And I am like googling before I eat anything if it is okay to consume. Any ladies out here on 2WW and tested positive? Also I heard pomegranate is good for the womb and I eat one fruit almost daily. Is that ok? Any thoughts, ideas and advice will be greatly appreciated. Good luck to all of us!
i did while sedated, cannot feel a thing only like menses cramps afterwards. u can opt for sedation but costs tad moreHi..Anyone had endo scratch before start of ivf cycle? I'm going for mine next week..is it painful?
3 or 2 days depends on your retrival last time, when they freeze that time did you ask? normally 3days for nuh and kk 2days. First 1 week after ET take it very easy, no squating carry heavy stuffs thruout. U can ask for more days mcHi HavingHope,

It's to prep the womb too, can buy at coffee and tea leaf cafe. Drink a bit alternate days best with honey or else light brown sugar. But then stimulation time stop. No no for pregg women as cause contractions (some recommend taking during 3rd trimester to relax the uterus and prep for childbirth)Thank you all! How about raspberry leaf tea? Anyone hear good things about it?
it's bloating..drink more water or H20 isotonic drinks. Very common after ET and also cos that's when they start u on the progesterone too..anyone has abominal pain after ER? started abominal pain since ytd evening and it always get worse after a meal.
you better go test for zika..for that peace of mind. I know of one who has to abort her baby 11 weeks, cos scan has no skull covering (very likely affilated) u go google..Hi, has anyone got mosquito bite during 2ww or early pregnancy but still ok? I Got bitten last night and now very worried...
