I have one, the older version. I kia su one, so I use this and those cheapo strips to determine. it can detect the surge well. but coz it says test only in the morning, for me I use the cheapo strip test at night if positive, the monitor will definitely turn positive the next morning.
but I feel after using both, don't need to buy the monitor. u can get a clearblur ovulation kit not the advanced one. then use it when u are unsure if the cheapo strip is telling u the correct results. I find it more cost effective, but since I bought it so I used it.

It is b4 we can hear the heartbeat. What is the number for ur nk cells? I'm not sure is that the higher the number the faster they will arrange for it. But it will definitely aft u c dr sheila n get the letter for the drip from her. Mine is she called nuh infusion staff nurse to arrange for me on the spot for the next day slot at the same time she prepared the letter for me to sign n she will sign on it as well for me to bring to nuh.

Hmmm I'm not on tcm but I'm doing my own cooking after the 7 days meals from natalessentials ended. So far for the thereafter 6 days I got very runny poo. I'm on 14days HL.Thanks
Btw, are you on TCM? Might be some ingredients in the med that are not suitable for u. I had similar experience during my first mc. The TCM said 虚不甚补, 拉出来就没事... then i was like... er.... i have also heard of friend who had diarrhea during confinement and she attributed it to red dates in her red date longan. She was ok after leaving out. Maybe call ur tcm?
I'm not seeing tcm yet but my hub bought some prepacked herbs for me to boil soup for the past 6 days la. I wonder if its the soup that cause me to laosai leh. But I'm sweating lesser, so which means i never 补到?

I also ls first 2 weeks after dnc... not sure is it bcos of the confinement food n soup...
Hi,
It could be yr food. It's good u pay a visit to tcm to understand the root cause.
I have migriane from day 4 after dnc and it was due to the 特补 food that i took which is too heaty for me.
A few tcm i went to, told me that no need to 大补特补, because we are very nourished nowadays, unlike the old days where taking food can be a luxury thing.
They recommend light meal with ginger, some meaty dishes, red date drinks. Actually, for the drink, u can add in different stuff for different healing effect. Tcm sinseh is better person to advise u. If u feel sweating out is good, try taking hot red dates drink. U shd be sweating very soon after the drink. Also, when taking drinks, we shd be at sit-down position.
Hi Give a hope,Just my lil suggestion based on my own experience. I think mbe u can find own rheumatologiest for the required test for antibodies.
For my case I have select 2 rheumatologiest in nuh for further review on my ANA dr anita n dr sheila but the schedule for dr sheila is too packed so I went to c dr anita according to her she ordered those test done in recurrent loss dept for the patient. (Select them based on one news paper news regards to ANA treatment, did mention w their help. Aft that only realise dr anita not actively involve in running test repeated loss). Aft all the blood test result is out for review I have been scheduled to c her for review she discharged me to her everything is clear. But at the moment my heart told me go look for prof mahesh for further review on the report so went to c him in his clinic. From there he told me I had just done half of the test not complete asked me to do the balance test. When the result is out he confirmed that my nk cells is too high so arranged me to c dr sheila. Dr sheila explained to me that my nk cella for normal person is ok but for pregnancy it is not ok it is above average. I need to on steroids n ivig once bfp to support the pregnancy.
Based on my experience mbe rheumatologiest with experience in helping in pregnancy will be the best person to approach cos to them they will know it is uncommon when it is above average whereas for other rheumatologiest even snr consultation to them it is dischargeable case. Therefore right dr for right treatments is very important. Their experiences n background play very important role n part for ttc or pregnancy.
Hope u don mind I have such sharing. Just my concern.
Oh, does it mean Dr Sheila is a better one for our condition. I visited her at her pvt clinic and did all the tests as advised by her. I manage to get refer to NUH. Went for 1st visit in May, was disappointed to be seen by a senior consultant. Requested to see the high preg care team, they arrange an appointment for me in sept. Hopefully i get to see Dr Sheila. Attention from the Right doctor is critical with our existing condition.
Aiya the clinic staff forgot. Then i waited and call at 5.30, she said she'll check and let me know but didn't get back. I had to call the emergency no. for Prof Mahesh cos my hb need to take leave mah. Aiya that girl.... it's ok, i chill
Hi,Don worry u r in good hands. U will be fine. As for now prof will order hcg for u n to be done 2days later to determine the pregnancy. Once the number hit 3k n above prof will done vscan from there u can c the yoke sac. Den prof will c u every week till ur pregnancy is stable ard 10 weeks den it will be 2 weeks later for oscar. From there u will be seeing dr sheila to discuss on more details on ivig plus sticky blood. Dr sheila will arrange for u n c u once a mth a week aft ivig. My vitamin D also below average according to dr sheila so I had 2 vitamin D every morning as support during ttc till now. Did my bone, vitamin D n protein S test n the test result for bone n vitamin D passed now waiting for protein S. Pray hard I'm pass my protein S n glucose test. My vitamin D dr sheila said good that it back to the range n will continue consume 2 vitamin D every morning.
Jiayou for ur this pregnancy. I am also fighting fighting n jiayou here
How many ivig u had so far? Omg, it's a hefty sum with the regular visits to Prof and Dr Sheila and the ivig treatments.

Hi,
Yes, if u are sweating non-stop. But sweating out abit is ok. Make sure to dry out asap and change to dry clothing.
Thk u for taking time to reply my post. The bleeding was likely due to infection according to Dr Tan HH.
No need for D&C. Thk god.
I was a given a course of antibiotics to take.
The bleeding has completely stopped.

Hmmm really meh. But i really sweat so much that I need to use towel to wipe my sweat. Like the sweaty feeling after an intense work out...
I'm on the extreme side la. I think my confinement meal was abit heaty. Eat 1 meal I started sweating alot. Drink 1 tea I also! I usually got to change tees after every meal. Will take about 20mins then stop sweating ma. Haiz.
But after I stop taking the confinement meals I don't sweat that much la. But the red dates tea still make me sweaaaaat.

you must jiayou n think of ur loved ones ur hub. And do mini confinement for abt 2 weeks aft that to me it help to strengthen the body den aft that go c tcm to tio ur body.
It is depends on the position of the dr. That time mine is either 4 beded or 1 bed but since I will definitely discharged aft I can go down to pass the urine I had chosen 4 beded. I rem mine is cpf ard 1k den cash 3k plus aft that we got refund of ard 1k in cheque as there is subsidy from gov.
Hi,
I did mine at Gleneagles, the fee is abt 3k plus. Check if you have insurance coverage for yr operation.
I'm able to claim for both my D&C from my insurance plans.

Pupnui sorry to hear that. Hope you're planning to do a mini confinement. Take care gal.
Give a hope, is there a bedder thing? I remember I awaken and rested for an hr or so at the observation area and then I went home already. Was feeling fine except just a little groggy.
Can't remember how much in exact. I believe partial medisave and cash was about 1k.

Oh so different from mine. Mine chop chop. Arrived there like no later than 730am. I was out of there by noon. The nurses there were kinda surprised I recovered very fast.

Sorry to hear that. Hugs..
I did mine at TMC, its 1k+, no more than 1.5k. My insurance does not cover me, as still within 1st trimester. So, I paid the rest in cash after medisave. Its day surgery, so after woke up, nurse will give biscuits and milo, after finish up then can go home. All in all about 3-4 hours.
Must do mini confinement, if no one cooks for you, then can consider catering. Must tiao your body back as mc and d&c are very hurtful to the womb.
Take care!

hello dears,
it's my second period since D&C at my 10th week. I have not regained my normal flow. This period is still very very light.
If you have been through the operation, may I know how long it takes to regulate your flow?
