(2012) TTC for #1 2012 Mums!
- Thread starter nb01
- Start date
sjx, cuz first time using FM so FM will require me to start testing from CD 6. acc to my calculation, if O will usually be CD 17. anyway, you have used the monitor before right, does it really identify ur peak day? i remember last cycle u O late... so did it correspond?

SJX: ya i heard about that! but he hates tomato juice! hahaha... must find a way to force him to drink
how are your symptoms today? still sama sama?
i am starting to believe my AF is just round the corner. whole night backache last night
i think i couldn't detect my O this month cos my entire cycle is shortened, possibly because my cycle is starting to mirror my SIL's (just started staying together from May)

sjx> how to play cheat with the FM? so if the FM tell u to test, but u dont test. will it react anything? or jus merely skip one day. cause i tink cd 6 is too early too.
i jus went to see gyane today.. he did not prescribe me with any meds!! cause after the 2nd blood tests, he says my progesterone level is 23, not as bad thou hte passing mark is 30. its jus that i ovulate very late. and my hubs sperm is above average, so we stand as good a chance. hais. quite disappointed that he dint prescribe me any meds to increase my chances. he ask me to try natural for another 3 more months..

DPO9 is still very early. As I said, most pple get +ve only after DPO11/12. Still have chance!
gingerbreadger
At least hubby doesn't have a problem so that is good. Now with the help of monitor, you should be able to tell when you O and will have a very good chance! Think abt it this way, natural is always better than using meds. So chin up!

ladies. i think i am ready to embark on medical intervention in my quest for a dragon baby. i havent seen any gynae or tcm yet. so i'm really not sure about my body's condition or my DH's.
however, we are both 32, healthy, non-smokers. my period is also very regular and i think i ovulate normally (based on positives OPKs each month).
So, what preliminary tests would you ladies suggest me and DH to go for? I was thinking of going to Dr LC Foong at Gleneagles, but am worried that his costs may be very high for preliminary testing that can be done elsewhere?
Any suggestions?

I think the first question to be answered if whether you want to go Chinese (TCM) or Western (gynae). But from what you are saying, I think you are more inclined to find a gynae?
Personally, if you haven't seen a gynae before, I feel that you should think abt going to see the same gynae for both prenatal checks and when you are pregnant as the gynae will know your history and you might find it easier than trying to source for a new one when pregnant. And like what you have said, if both you and DH seems to be in good health, most good gynaes will know the standard tests to do, like ultrasound, bloodwork etc..
If you want a few good gynae recommendations that are affordable, I think some ladies here have a few. Think you need to let us know if you want female/male gynae and preferred location.

I didn't do all the tests so cannot help you on pricing but xiu has given you some figures. But like she has said, it varies from gynaes and hospitals.
Diamond
Get well soon!
siuping
New cycle new hope!
Amy
Do join us if you can since you are not going TCM. You don't accept PM so please PM me if you want to come and I can send you the details.

since it's so quiet here, i'll create some 'noise' by asking for help.
anyone knows which brands of adult milk powder carry the lactose-free formula? and it cannot be low-fat.
the reason i am asking is, i am actually underweight and am trying to put on weight. i do the healthy 3 meals but it's hard to snack when there are so many things we can't eat when TTC. so i turn to full-cream milk powder instead.
currently drinking nespray but i'm lactose intolerant so on good days there is a lot of wind in my stomach, and on bad days i get diarrhea.
i am fine with meiji fresh milk but it's cold and troublesome to make warm.
any suggestions? thanks!
*edited: sorry, just found the answer. it's ENSURE and have no idea why i forgot about it cos i used to take this regularly a few years back*

let me provide some entertainment.
Life is like a penis. it's short, but seems so long when it gets hard.
Dear guys, your penis is not pinocchio's nose. it doesnt get longer everytime you lie about its size.

coyote: so we are both trying to gain weight! wow, your days would pass very quickly with 8 meals a day. hmm, let me see what i am currently having:
7.30am: full cream milk
9am: bread with cheese and margarine
12noon: lunch
4pm: full cream milk
7.30pm: dinner (with 2 bowls of soup)
10.30pm: full cream milk
your menu looks a lot more exciting! hahaha...
i am 'afraid' to eat too much as i stay with the in-laws and am not comfortable to let them know we are TTC (further stress). already my DH likes to comment jokingly that i am a pig cos i get hungry very soon after dinner so i don't dare to want to eat more.
i didn't know herbal life helps pple to gain weight! i always thought it's for slimming. thanks for sharing!
