    Babydust Praying for you that baby is not ectopic and you see the sac in womb when you next do the scan. Thought that risk should be quite low since you place all embies in womb? Anyway, my friend had one last year from natural pregnancy...the symptoms were spotting and sharp pain on one side...

    Stardiva Puregon and Gonal-F cost about the same at Raffles Hospital. Around $600+ for 600IU (cost much more than KK). Both are FSH, but patients can respond a bit differently in terms of uniformity of size of follicles and quantity. Normally if one does not work, they tend to switch for next...

    Cutiebaby Has your spotting stopped? We can only hope it is implantation bleed. I understand that implantation takes place 6 to 10 days from ovulation. You may want to call your clinic. Did they give you any progesterone support pills to take? Most of us have failed IUIs in the past and...

    Mint/Chevall We are all desperate for pregnancy signs during the 2WW and I know how hard it is when things don't go smoothly. Go with God's Grace tomorrow as you do your tests. We are all praying for you. I am now 10DPET. Have reached the stage when I have to take a deep breath everytime...

    Mint Take it easy at work today, 0K? Maybe you should call the clinic in case they want you to go for some progesterone jabs etc to boost your levels. I read a site on IVF and they say that spotting can indicate implantation. Even in the worse case whereby the womb is shedding, this may only...

    Mint Pls call your doctor and tell them about the spoting. I know this is very scary (just reading your post already got me worried) but 8 to 10 DPET is exactly when implantation happens. I think you should not go to work tomorrow just in case and rest more until you are sure either way. I...

    Don't worry Cutiebabie. Yours is IUI which is more natural than IVF. I think it is OK to move around as long as you don't tire yourself. Think of all the women who conceive naturally who would have continued with their day to day activities after conception.With IVF, given the amount of human...

    Helpme/Tigg3r Another thing to note is if you hit a vein (hence some bleeding) is to press hard on the spot with the alcohol swap without rubbing around, similar to what you do when we do a bloodtest after the blood has been drawn. This will avoid bruising. I also did both jabs at the same...

    Joanna A big congrats! Petals, The Crinone (twice a day) is on top of the HCG jabs that I get every 3 days. Had 1 progesterone jab also on the ET day also. There is no escaping these needles. Mint I called the nurse this morning and she said not to worry..but sometimes it's hard when...

    Petals, I think it's a little early to be implantation bleeding. The Crinone is very dry and almost membrane like, like all the moisture has been absorbed. Anyway, I know I am being hyper...but I left it on the tissue and now it is hardened to a orange/dark beige like colour, not quite brown. I...

    Hi Ladies I am new to this thread. Last Thursday was my ET so today is 4 DPET and I am pretty close to Mint's timing. I transferred in 3 embies of Grade 1/2 on D2 (1 being the best). I had nothing left to freeze as the remaining embie was not growing normally. I did my IVF with Raffles...
