good luck! I didn’t get much irritability but not smooth either. The bloat towards and post retrieval can be a bit bad. The needles are not too bad! I have done 2 rounds of retrieval, it is not that scary.

I did but after proper consideration, the lack of bandwidth to take care of 3 is real. I guess I rather give them more quality time than to have another and to suffer more mom’s guilt? Having my twins already gave me a lot of guilt because I can never be there for both when both wants me. Plus I...

I had 4 left. Chose to discard them. It is a difficult decision. I was quite sad for a few days actually. Then again the rational husband told me there is no way we could have 6, and even if we put it back, they may not fully implant and develop to become full term babies like how our previous...

Seen Zou Yumin at amk but I think she is a bit overrated, never did improve with her treatment. But I have to say she does have many successful cases. Seen Tan Siew Buoy at Chinatown, famous but the queue is very long and got to see her for only once a month so I thought it was not much of use...

Dr Loh usually uses high dose. I have done 2 cycles with him, both on high doses. A lot of factors matter — for me, it was probably the type of medication & how well my body was prepped for the cycles. I have friends who don’t do well with him but do well with doctors who do low doses (retrieved...

That’s why many turn to tcm or supplements which might help strengthen the body and boost chances? It is definitely something nobody knows which round of ivf will work or will it ever work for some. Take it as buying hope for yourself if you want to have a baby. Have faith. Sometimes a little...

Once you decide to start, if there are not issues, can start the time you get your period.

I did 2, an early blast and a blast. Both implanted but it was challenging because with ivf already has a higher tendency for bleeding, my bleeding was very bad and had to do bedrest for most of my trimester 1. Coupled with very bad morning sickness which lasted till I gave birth, I was...

If it is not age, could it be a myriad of other factors like hairstyle, weight, dressing or others? No need for procedures like surgery or botox, sometimes it is just presentation. I guess as women, taking care of kids and home takes the toll and sometimes we tend to neglect ourselves and just...

Did you try checking if her wake time was appropriate for her age? In the event you miss that sleepy window, she might just get overtired and makes it tough to fall asleep. That is the best bet why she is always looking at you despite trying to get her to sleep. Mummy can also try to put her...

I started taking abt a week after transfer because I was bleeding badly. Not from clementi’s Dr Tan though. I think it is up to your discretion. Good luck!

More of less blood isn’t really a sign of viable pregnancy or not. Don’t overthink. Many ladies in this forum had bleeding pregnancies (can google in thread), me inclusive. I had a lot of bleeding and clots and bled till second trimester. Have lots of rest :) and stay positive.

Honestly, I don’t know. Haha... I did a lot, including changing lifestyle with all these. One thing I did not do was the protein stuff because I had great phobia for it after the first cycle of non-stop a lot of protein eating. I guessed everything did help and I changed dosage of my multivits...

You can try a general woman multivits, coq10 & vit D. I did that. Had some other supplements on and off and tcm, somehow something that I changed did help me get prep well for my second cycle.

I have heard of people doing so but not sure if it causes more worries? I guess a good gauge should be the baby’s movements.

Yes, most of the time docs cannot explain except for some cases. My ivf doc cannot find the cause for bleed but my gynae did. In any case, nothing can be done since I was already on jabs and oral meds. Can only pray. I don’t know if having a reason for bleeding is better or not having...

Just do bed rest since you are already on max support. I was like that previously too. With the jabs and oral medications, other than bed rest, the gynae can only scan. Since you have done the scan already, there is very little your gynae can do anyway. Yes the bleeding is worrying and it may...

Doc said the shells for eggs were thick that round and the fertilisation and thereafter development rate was not very good.

Took Fertilaid from iherb and some others, including tcm. Can’t remember totally unless I check back on purchase records. Last he took was like in 2019..

Mine has poor morphology also eversince checks at kkh and then to private. Got supplements for him, not sure if it did get better but I guess there should be some subtle improvements? Don’t fret. You may just succeed in the next cycle! :) I had bad egg quality and husband poor sperm morph too in...
