    IVF 2019

    No symptoms at all except some light cramping and bloatedness but nothing too major. I also had loose bowels a week before my beta test (sorry is this TMI?)- the kind that I usually have before my period comes so I thought it was going to be negative. I was extremely tempted to do a HPT but I...

    What’s a pregnancy pulse? Sounds cool. No, my acupuncturist told me to stop going after ET. I assume it’s not safe as it’s still early? I might go back after first trimester.

    Han TCM Clinic. My acupuncturist is Dr Joyce Chee. She’s very young, medically trained and very good. Oh another tip she gave me was, after ER and ET, to always cover my feet with socks even at home to make sure my body is kept warm to help with implantation.

Praise the Lord! I’m going for my first ultrasound next week, hoping for a healthy pregnancy! Here are some things...

    IVF 2019

    Hey ladies (and gentleman) I had my egg retrieval on Saturday morning at KKH. It wasn’t as traumatising as I was expecting but still quite.... surreal. Anyway I don’t feel bloated but I feel like my stomach area is tighter. Not sure how to explain it. Like when I stand up straight I feel like...

    My next scan is on Monday! So excited. I just started Orangultran injections today and that one hurt; my belly is all reddish now. Do you know if your husband will be waiting for you at the hospital during your ER? Or will he only come pick you up after you’re discharged? Still unsure what to...

    Yes I've been going for acupuncture for the past 2 months and I must say my flow is richer red and no cramps/ any PMS symptoms at all. My body also feels warmer as I used to feel cold easily, hopefully this would help with the IVF!

    IVF 2019

    Hey everyone, I just started my first injection today for IVF. Finally as my period was a week late this month, had to take pills to delay my period as I had scheduled a trip before my IVF journey started. I am self-injecting 125ml of Puregon for 4 days, and then doing Puregon AND Orgalutran...

    IVF 2019

    Thank you!! Sometimes I wished that my doctor had just told me to go straight to IVF. I had one failed IUI in December 31st. But everything happens for a reason! And congratulations for your bubba! I'm going for my IVF Counselling in 2 weeks time and I just want the time to fly by so I can...

    Woah, who is this doctor who told you this? Were you planning to use a donor sperm for your IVF?

    IVF 2019

    I guess it depends on a case by case basis. She allowed because I spent 5 timed cycles trying to conceive naturally and 6 cycles on letrozole before moving to IUI. My tests all came back clear- I was ovulating on my own, no blocked tubes, lining is thick enough, etc etc. So the doctor said...

    IVF 2019

    Hey ExcitedDaddy, I’m actually with Dr Sadhana now! I agree she is really good. But do you know if she is pro-natural birth? A friend told me that KKH has the highest number of caesarian births compared to other hospitals in Singapore. But maybe that’s just a volume thing and not doctor’s choice...

    Pardon my ignorance as I haven’t gone for the briefing yet. But why did they not wait for the embryos to develop into blastocysts before transferring? Baby dust to us all!
