i agree..
making bb really hard work...so many factors have to be in place for the miracle to take place.
i was at the TTC thread...all seems experts...i am so confused. decided to just stick to a Ovulation calendar, BD alternate day, and pray for the best...gonna try till end of this year...if still no BB, then maybe really need to see a gynea...

we didnt really TTC seriously but got preggie in march but suffered a miscarriage. usually we know the O period but often too tired to BD. We did tried a couple of months but no good results.
Will have to try harder, giving myself till end of this year.
trying not to stress myself...guess using a O chart is easier than BBT..
how abt u? ttc how long?

Eliz/Hung ... reading your posts made me feel better. my AF is 10 days late and I'm getting really stressed out. i am starting a new job i really want in a few months that i can't take if i am pregant. I need to let them know soon. took 3 home tests in the past couple days and all turned out negative. no idea what is going on with my body! AF is usually ontime ...sigh will have to do a blood test before i go nutz.
are at home tests usually quite accurate? i tried ept and clear blue.
janice..good luck

janice,
CONGRATS!!!!.. happy for u. take extra care & go for bld test lor. most zhun one liao.
Hung,
if u want to go for checkup for both, maybe can ask hb to do SA test to determine his % of spermie in term of overall quality & mortilty.
best to seek an infertility spec for advice lor. for woman if want to check most likely is to do HSG to see if blockage of tubes anot?

HI Hung,
ya..its always good to do some checks 1st ......i think seeing a gynae will be a better choice ba since they specialise in woman's health or dealing with fertility issue.
Yo Iceblue,
my gynae is with TMC....
just came back ater seeing my gynae. Abt 5 weeks preggie. can only see the water bag which is abt 6mm. he give me some hormones pills cos i mention to him that i have some brown discharge these 2 days n he say prob not stabilise yet

hey janice, congrats to you!! v happy for u
yeah this thread is getting busy again...yippee
hi obsessive, clearblue is quite accurate. in my 1st preggie-later-m/c, it give me a positive result after AF was late for 4 days. Last month, i used 2 of clearblue OPK which showed negative, true enough, my AF came after 10 days late...
my 2 cents worth of advice, u might want to try again after AF is 1 week late...
actually those watson brand of OPK is quite good too...cheaper $8++ for one, clearblue $12++ for one.
Hi Hung,
Last weekend was my O weekend...i tell u, we BD like its the last weekend on earth..haha...actually my HB is quite terrified...hahaha...see me like see jaws...
well we worked hard this round...hope for the best now..am thinking of seeing the gynea for checkup for both myself n HB if we still dont hit the target by July... any good gynea to recommend for such test?
Hi Zenn,
U must take care. I run & walk too much during my 1st preggie...had m/c on the 7th week. 1st trismester is a crucial period, if you have brown spotting, should rest more, lie on bed if possible, yr gynea should issue you hormone pills. When i was bleeding & admitted to Gleneagles, the 1st thing the gynea did was jab me with hormones jab to save my baby and i was ordered to lie in bed for 3 days, cannot even get out of bed to go toilet....all activities in bed. oh....remember, NO SQUATING, NO RAISING OF YOUR ARMS TOO HIGH and NO CARRYING OF HEAVY STUFF. Just rest, rest, rest...
2 cents worth
enjoy yr pregnancy gals...

lynn,
I am not sure if each gyne follow the same process.
For me, my gyne (KKH) did a scan for me on the first checkup and the next to ensure there is growth. Also the standard urine checkup and asking of questions on medical condition. Of course, purchasing of folic acid.
Other than that..nothing liao.
Elizabeth,
HPT - home pregnancy test
PTK - pregnancy test kit
Some people can test as early as the 28th day (if their cycle is 28 days). Cos I did previously but now my cycle has changed. Some pple can test positive few days after missing the menses. I guess all depends on individual's body condition.
Same thing

hello lynn,
Congrates.
Just to say, it's NEVER too early to see a gyne.
If u wish to, you can go to the gyne to do a check. Since this should be your first baby, u are bound to feel excited and lost. It is up to you whether u are patang or not to share the good news. For me, I wasn't. I shared the news immediately to close frens and relatives. Though almost all my frens didn't share the joy with me. I had to go thru this myself....but I found a group of mummies that helped me thru the pregnancy.
Decision is urs. And CONGRATES again!
