2WW - for those TTC-ing

Thanks. Feeling slight cramps and having light brown discharge. *Fingers crossed*
Hi reaxys,

I think it is another unsuccessful cycle for me. Haiz... AF is announcing her arrival with spotting. I am going to bury myself in work to bring away the disappointment and brace myself for the next cycle.
 


Sorry to hear of your unpleasantness. I wasn't happy with WK Tan so I switched to Dr Loh too. The waiting time was horrible, clinic dinky and freezing, plus I am not impressed by the assistants/nurses who dispatched medicine at the back of the clinic. They are so distant and unfriendly. Gave me wrong dosage once as well. Luckily it was just metfomin and hardly harmful though Dr WK Tan lowered me the right dosage after being on it for 3 months. there are other little stuff too i cant remember .. i just know that i will not go back to her.


My gynae was with W C Cheng and yes the nurses' service can be improved! Anyone feedback to the founder before? Their service really sucks. I wanted to change my appointment during my 38 week one nurse refused to do so saying the doctor was full. I told her I needed to go to my older kid's PTA that same time. So my response was do you want me to see the gynae only in the delivery room? She said there was nothing she could do in a condescending tone . One would think being nurse and likely a mother they would be empathetic !!

Hi @jayjayqueenie,

If you can afford time, you will go watsons to see if the 2nd item at 50% off is still on. I bought 2 boxes of conceive well. I guess some discount is better than none.
 
pardon me again. just to rant.
each time I swear that the pregnancy symptoms are stronger and stronger each month
I end up in disappointment.
now at cd25, 9dpo

but I am curious...why the pregnancy symptoms become stronger each time

Actually I have the same feeling as u! But I tried consoling myself, because sources said that those symptoms are similar to pms so maybe we hope that we will have good news this month so tend to overthink?

Hope this is your month @jayjayqueenie and what you are experiencing are truly pregnancy signs. I agree with @MissNo that these symptoms are similar to PMS and it is true that we just wanted it so much that we over-amplify all slight changes/sensations hoping these are indeed signs of pregnancy. I totally feel you. I had it last month from starting from the strong positive opk (building up confidence) to sore boobs which i dun recall having it in the months before... yet ended up in a bfn.
 
i think my col drank DOM in the morning.
she reported that she black out and fell, resulting in a chipped tooth.
and she also said she suspected she drank too much DOM.
so I suspected she drank in the morning.
for me I prefer to drink at night. nice to sleep ;)
 
hello ladies,

i had a natural miscarriage on 23 december 2015 (was holidaying in europe with my partner when it happened and i didn't visit any gynae as it was the festive period and it was difficult because of our location). I then bled for eight whole days before clearing up entirely.

we came back in january and immediately tried again. on 16 january 2016, i started to have very little brown discharge (appeared on my pantyliner and sometimes after i wipe myself after peeing); the brown discharge was on and off for about four days. i was thinking if that could be implantation bleeding because it cleared up after and now it's 26 january, my period is still not here (i am on a 29/30 day cycle after i started to tiao li my body with a tcm since october last year).

i visited my gynae last week and she said it might be because my body is not back to the original state after the natural miscarriage and asked me to monitor if my period comes this week (which it still hasn't). she did a vagina scan and ultrasound for me and said everything looks normal inside. I was expecting my period to come latest by 23 january 2016 but as it's still not here, i took a clearblue test on that day and it turned out to be negative. did i test too early? :(

i have been religiously taking my tcm dosages everyday since october 2015, hence there's no way my period can be late so i really don't know what's happening to me and my body now... would really appreciate if any of you sisters here have some advice for me.

thank you so much and sorry for the long post.

@jasmintan, sorry to hear about your loss. Pardon me, I am not able to offer much advice. Since your gynae said everything looks normal, you can continue to wait a little longer to see if anything happens later on. Could it be that you ovulated later this month and hence the delayed period?
 
@simbb, I actually visited my tcm right after I came back and she said that my body condition was perfectly fine and normal then too. She also told me that I'd ovulate as per normal which was sometime between 5-7 January, hence we tried from 5 January all the way till I had the brown discharge which was 16 January. Assuming I had really ovulated much later this month, means I probably tested too early huh? I don't have much symptoms except for a super bloated tummy and my tummy doesn't usually show... And I remember I had very mild cramps when I had the brown discharge so I thought my period was just going to follow on. But it cleared after four days, leaving me with no period now and extremely confused. Sigh.

Any sisters with similar occurrence before? Please share!

Thank you very much.

@jayjayqueenie, oh dear, it seems stress has taken its toll on your cycle. Hope it is still good news for you this month. Maybe the urine test is not so sensitive? Ultrasound wise... maybe it is still early?

i do not understand ultrasounds but i think from there i am suppose to see a sac. i know i see none of it. i must admit i wanted to ask gynae some what ifs. but judging from his confidence, and i do not wish to be a desperado in his office. i just took his words and left.

Hi! I'm keen on #4 and #5
 
Anybody currently on 2ww?

Hi, my next AF due on 05 Feb 2016 and hopefully it "Strike". In fact, I did not follow the ovulation day and just BD as and when we like. But I have being taking Hong Zao + Long Yan tea for the past week on alternate day. Drinking coffee once or twice a week and have tea every alternate weekday. As I be turning 36 this May, I'm afraid that I will be harder to get pregnant. Does anyone has any advice? I'm thinking of going to TCM but not sure which is the best. Can someone recommend TCM around chinatown area? There is one Sinchong TCM at People's Park Centre, has anyone being there?

How long have u ttc ? I read somewhere if above 35 and ttc more than 6 months , then better see fertility specialist .. JTS
 
@Lostkitty actually although many ppl here have mentioned that it is good to take red date longan tea, it may not be applicable for everyone mainly because everyone has diff body constitution. Some may be heaty body or some may be cooling body with dampness. I would highly suggest you to consult tcm before taking as it may tilt your body's equilibrium if it is not suitable.

If you are ttc-ing, you might also want to be cautious about what you put into your body because what you eat now affects your eggs 3 months later. It would be advisable to reduce or quit caffeine. Of course many ppl would say that alot of ppl still drink caffeinated drinks or eat liang food but still bfp. Those ppl r probably those who easily bfp. If you have been trying for sometime without success, you may just be one of those that need extra caution.

In any case, you may be interested to check out tsb aka dr chen qiu mei from Kang De Mei. You can google for her and obtain her number. Her queue is long but there are some who have indeed obtained bfp after seeing her.
