Hello all! I tested positive on 5dp5dt (conceived through IVF/ICSI) (10DPO) on 27 Apr :) Based on my conception date, my estimated due date should be around 8 Jan. I am going for my first U/S on 13 May (around 5w3d) - hopefully can see something.

Hi Keith, do keep us updated on your scan outcome! All the best.

Sorry babe I just saw this! I mostly cooked when I'm on keto, especially during the period immediately before and during the cycle when I ate very clean (think steak, broccoli, cherry tomatoes, salmon, cauliflower etc). But to start with, you just need to skip the rice and noodle and pay more...

Your lining at stims day 1 is 5mm? That seems very promising! I am doing my first fresh cycle at KKH and going for my BT tomorrow. I think first time is always a trial and error because even with stats and experience, the doc still has to guess how you respond to meds. Eg I have a relatively...

I also started wearing all the looser dresses since stims and wearing the same thing over and over again -_- when are you doing your fet?

I don't have OHSS. The bloating from stims and ER went down about 2- 3 days after, but I felt like it came back after starting progesterone at ER+3. I'm not eating more but I just have a bloat around my midsection now (12dp5dt) - don't dare to weigh myself! I do still feel a bit of soreness from...

This book is extremely popular on Reddit too (subs: infertility, IVF, stilltrying)

I'm also thinking about this. I want to find a helper who can be like a second mum to my kid, but not sure if it's too much to ask for :/

Hi babe, I suggest you go on a very low carb diet - ketogenic (https://www.cnyfertility.com/about-us/fertile-food/ (CNY is a very popular fertility clinic on the US East Coast), or Mediterranean, in each case cutting out all refined starch, rice noodles etc. I've only done 1 fresh cycle, but I...

Adultery is just grounds for filing for divorce. B can gather all the evidence against A but it will not make the divorce come quicker.

Honestly quite turned off. You mentioned that you had done one IVF before, but wanted someone to fund another cycle in a private setting cos you dislike the KKH setting and long waits. Just because of that, you are fine with your wife going through the IVF process? Even OK to go overseas to do...

You are only 34 dear - time is still on your side. The loss wouldn't feel less painful but please don't give up hope *hugs*

I'm so sorry to hear this Lalamoo. I am praying for you here.

Nah I think 6.4 is a good number for ovarian reserves. Comparatively mine is 1.6 at 29 yo, which is borderline. Had to focus on producing really good quality eggs. Edit: for reference, Dr Jerry prescribed me 300iu menopur a day and I guess he might up it if I go for another fresh cycle. I got 7...

I think it's true that Dr Jerry Chan is very "cold", or rather clinical. He is very soft spoken and will not offer extra information unless you ask him specifically e.g. he said I seem to have quite few follicles, borderline AMH, but he wouldn't offer the numbers and figures unless I ask for it...

Hi babe, I saw from the main IVF/ICSI thread (the 4900+ pages one..... :O ) that if you change docs, you need to requeue. HTH.

Hi everyone, I had my 5d blastocyst transferred yesterday (22 Apr 19). We did IVF (no IUI) due to male factor. I have low AMH for my age (30, AMH 1.6) - only retrieved 7 eggs even with 300iu menopur a day. 5 were mature and 4 fertilised and made it to day 5. At ET time however, only 1 was...

This might be a bit late but try to drink 100 plus zero instead of 100 plus! The sugar in 100 plus may affect the impact of your efforts to up the protein intake.

Hi Billie, I posted this in the other IVF thread but I have been following the ketogenic diet for the past 5 months - the very low carb and high fat / high protein diet is good for fertility, even if you go for Mediterranean / variations of diet besides ketogenic diet...

Hello, the ketogenic or a very low carb diet is recommended for fertility. https://www.cnyfertility.com/about-us/fertile-food/ I am currently on the ketogenic diet. Do ensure that you are taking in unprocessed and not processed food. To start off, cut out all sources of white carbs (rice...
