to everyone,
i have a question on BBT. Does it drop a few days just before AF comes? or on the day itself?
i'm just starting to measure my BBT...

Hi all
Just came back from KKH 24hrs Women clinic.... my wifey say she got a few drop of blood on her undie..... and she is very afraid, she nearly burst into tears.... to put her and my mind at east, I send her to KKH... after doing urine test and scan, the doctor say that this is known as spotting and very common... with strong heart beat of the foetus, chances of miscarriage is only 5%. So long it is not a heavy flow or a very bad abdominal pain, it should be okay, but of course got to be very careful. She was given a jab too to stablise the foetus..... thank goodness she and the foetus are okay.... frankly, I am already preparing myself for the worst, cannot imagine how my wifey will react if it is bad news...... Thank God Thank God........

hi Zhuzhu,
sorry to hear about your loss... now it's very impt for you to tiao your body so that your body will be strong enuff...
If you can go to Chinese sinseh and ask for "Sheng1 Hua4 Tang1"... it's to be drank after giving birth to remove all the "dirty blood".
Please abstain from any cooling / cold stuffs from now for the next 1 mth. No crabs / prawns.
Just take more tonic and more ginger. Dun drink water. Drink red date, "Gou Qi Zi", Dried black Longan, "Dang3 Shen1", "Bei3 Qi3" and some ginger. Boil for 30-40 mins and drink as water.
It will help to get rid of the bloatedness, "Bu Qi", "Bu Xue", and "Ming2 Mu" - good for eyes....
it's very impt for you to take all the nutritional stuffs and also to get rid of the "wind" in the body. That way you will be able to nourish your body well.
1) Everyday drink the red date tea mentioned above like water. Dun drink water.
2) Morning drink a bottle of chicken essence on empty stomach. After 10-15 mins take your normal breakfast
3) Lunch/Dinner, mee sua with soup or tonic soup with rice and veg. and remember use lots of ginger.
4) drink DOM before you sleep every night.
Your body is in a very good state to absorb the most now. So, dun let it pass.... take as much as you can.
E.g of tonic soup.
1) "Dang Shen", "Bei Qi", "Huai Shan", Gou Qi Zi, black dates, add half/whole black chicken with 1 bowl of water and 1/2 cup of martel.
You can chose to fry some ginger slice with sesame oil and then add normal chicken followed with martel before pouring into slow cooker with the herbs to boil.
2) Fry ginger with sesame oil and fry some chicken/meat. Can add mushroom is you wan. add water boil and add some salt, pepper and soya sauce... after water boil add mee sua.
3) "Pao shen with Chong Chao" and gou qi zhi , black date with black chicken.
However, I have chosen to mill "Pao shen and chong cao" into powder. Can take 2-4 everyday during this period.
Remember to ask for "Lao Pao shen". It must be warm in nature. Not those cooling Pao shen
4) Fry ginger slices with sesame oil, add chicken dice, add mushroom... stir fry... add some seasoning, add 2 tablespoon of DOM and fry... then add a little of the mushroom water used to soak the mushroom. This also quite nice. Very sweet.
5) Remember..After your blood clear Totally, can drink "Dang gui bu xue Tang", "Ba Zhen" and "Bai Feng Wan" with black chicken

Dear Zhuzhu
I'm indeed sorry to hear abt your loss too. I think since it's a chemical pregnancy which u had earlier suspected too, it's not a full m/c but a missed one that occured before Wk 5. You can just take smaller portion of those 'bu' stuffs recommended by elmo.
Take care of yourself!!

Hi, I am new to this thread...would like to find out more info on "trying to conceive". 
We just started trying out for bb in Oct (after my menses) and my menses is late for Nov, 9 days till now.
Any special symptom whether I conceive now? I got sore breast and stomach cramp. But, these are my menses coming symptom also. So, I am kinda worry and dare not to test with any pregnancy test kit, scare is a big disappointment to me.
Can share with me? Thanks.

Not to worry..i pretty over it now..just that it had been a roller coaster week..

Hi Elmo,
Thanks for your reply!
I'm getting symptoms like slight cramps and heavier breasts like what i usually get when AF is coming. But my BBT is still high and AF is not yet due to arrive for at least another week.
Hope the high BBT holds (*fingers crossed*). But my cycle very erratic, so also hard to say... will have to wait a couple more weeks to get better picture.
Sigh...don't like the waiting part...

Bottle: Since u r already 9 days late, u shd buy the HPT to test liao. Find out earlier so that you can check for any signs of instability.
Choco: I'm so envious that you BBT is high. Mine is dropping to 36.28 but AF is still not here yet. Not much high hopes on this cycle... I guess it's one of those late menses for me again

Anyone has this situation before?
Menses late for more than a month already. Breasts feeling tender, and feeling very tired. But when I went to a GP to test, the result is negative. (Actually by right should trust the GP, but I heard that the kit should test early in the morning but I tested in late morning, and plus the GP didn't seem very professional and knowledgeable).
So I am here to seek your advice, should I do a test again myself or should I save the effort and money (and spare myself the disappointment) to just wait for my menses to come?
My menses used to be VERY regular until recently (or rather after I got married few months ago). I find it very strange. My sister says that because I am getting old (I am 29 this year. Is it true?

Actually, I used to have irregular menses, can even late for 1 month. After marriage, I find my menses is more regular, lesser menses cramp.
After we started trying for bb in Oct, my menses is late for Nov till now. So, I am kinda worry and have not test with any test kits till now. *praying*
Any recommendation on pregnancy test kits and how to use? Sorry, 1st time, no experience.

Hi Cherry
Thanks! I tried the ovulation kit but that doesn't help for me though.. But someone in this thread told me to put a pillow under my butt after sex for the sperm to flow in with my legs high up! I only tried for once & BINGO!! I started folic acid every morning too.. not sure if that helps.. Let me shower you with some bb dust!!
ZhuZhu
Thank you!
