Congrats mei2, grabbing your bb dust!

Winnie > how many eggs were retrieved? did you get a bfp from the embryos? did you use other stimulant for other cycles? and which stimulant works better for you? sorry for the many questions.

Hi ladies, anyone here have used Gonal-f and Menopur on different cycles? Did Menopur improve the quality of the eggs?

Babydusty > I had a mc and too was very emotional. But we need to move forward. Do a mini confinement to build up the body. Like maomi suggest, do approach a counsellor for advises. Sometimes an external party can help you see the picture clearer. It may be also easier for you to speak to...

Babydusty, you've been strong. I had a mc and I know no words can describe it. My dr was sympathetic and allowed us a week to seek second opinion and to come to terms with reality. After my incident, I heard that dr ann tan at paragon has one of the most advanced scanning machine. You may wish...

Dream > You'll have more follicles at the later stage, as the small ones can't seee from scan now. I started with about 6-8 on each side, and by the time of ER I had over 20 in total and all yield an embryo. I was told to take more protein to prevent over stimulation.

Dream > Which day are you at now? There is still chance for the smaller ones to catch up to the right size. 300 is puregon or gonal-f? Did dr explain why its considered high dosage? Many of us here were on higher dose. I was on 350iu gonal-f. Adejoy > Thanks for the recipe. How do you manage...

Jelly, how come need 5 holes for lap? I thought usually one? I had one hole for my lap, and was discharged the next day. Hope you're recovering well. To all ladies, Merry Christmas!

Lynx > Not big, just that I separate the kitchen into two parts, one dry with induction stove and a wet kitchen with gas stove meant for helper if I eventually engage one. I love the induction for its precise temperature and timer function. My mum used to use the pressure cooker but found it too...

Lynx, too many pots... haha i've so many now that i've to hide them! Two sets of WMF for my induction stove... bought first set with two small handles at side and realised not used to it, so bought another set with single long handle. And some other pots for gas stove... which is not used as i...

Jelly > Thanks, got your pm. Robot technology surgery is a lot higher than conventional. Did they give you the option of which method... or only robot tech? Dreambear > Replied your pm. Wondersss > I'm standing by to grab your bb dust. Lynx > Have you tried using the the new microwave...

Jelly, what's the estimated cost for lap surgery with robot technology?

Lynx > I did it at Mount E. Wondersss > Oh dear, will keep you in my prayers. Take care. Jelly > Did the sistas mentioned how abdominal retrieval is done? Via keyhole? Which dr is doing the lap surgery for you? Will dr lower the ovary at the same time? Else may need to go through another...

Jelly > I guess egg retrieval via abdominal is like a key hole surgery, so small pain maybe inevitable. Did you manage to find out more from sgh? Lynx > For my case, the embryologist from the fertility clinic called me the next day at 10am to update on progress... that was less than 24 hours...

Jelly, the pawnshops info are what I hear from the old folks when I was doing volunteer work. Me also clueless in reality, that's why the ugly gold pieces are still lying around even though I can't stand the sight of it! For high positioned ovary, I read that there's a method of retrieval...
