Morning ladies!
Serene,
Congrats on you BFP!! Take good care of yourself ok? Rest more and don't stress yourself.
Hi Stileto,
Puregon is used to grow the eggs, acts like a booster so eggs grow faster to the desired size. Clomid is just to induce ovulation.
Hi Joanne,
Been pretty bz these few weeks so didn't post anything. But have been reading the thread still =) So you starting IUI next mth liao? Where you going to do it? Dr Foong? Wow next mth is just one week away leh! so fast hor.

Serene,
I didn't catch the baby dust from you this time...it's negative..got to test as I am travelling next week...anyway, I have had enough of SO-IUI, tink really low chance of success with that for me despite having good size eggs and lining and doing a double IUI...anyway, moving on to IVF after AF come..
If you can stand the long waiting time at Dr Nair place then u can consider going back...I will be starting my IVF with him anyway...
By the way, I am in a real low mood now...so please don't start asking question on what is my egg size, lining, when I do IUI blah blah blah....thanks!

Ah Kat,
because previously when it was on orange alert, KKH didn't allow pp to collect lucrin. Also for that time, KKH would not allow ER/ET for red alert leh... It was such a relief for me when it finally changed to yellow alert. Now that I'm on lucrin, I don't want my cycle to be disrupted by this H1N1 flu lah 8:"-(

Devlina,
My EDD is on 25th December 2009, but might be earlier... due to carrying twins...
My babies are sleeping below adominal side by side, head to head and their buttock are on top.. very cute position.
I think you can already massage when you bb is 4 mths so that bb will be at proper position.
ah_kat,
so sorry to hear the news... hopefully ivf will bring you baby luck... I will keep some bb dust to all of you out there...

hi bambi
Dun worry as that time when alert is at orange, only kkh dun allow collection of medicine.. Sgh had no control on this so i think even if it goes to orange level now,u still can proceed ur er/et.. Btw, when is ur er/et going to be? Estimate? Wish u luck for this cycle...
Hi elle
Pat pat, maybe too early to check for hpt now since hasnt 14 days yet.. So level is still too low to be able to detect.. Lets keep every finger and toe cross for u.. think positive k..
Hi juliana
So nice to see ur twins right? Did u sob again this time? Ya, that day dr zou told me one patient had twins too.. Go shopping biy bb clothes at 3rd mth after 1st trimester, suddenly see a gush of red clot come out fr below when she is trying out her clothes in the changing room.. Quickly call for ambulance, when go in, luckily still can hear one bb heartbeat but the other was gone.. So she hositalized for that few days dun dare to move at all.. Very scare liao.. Hence looks like when carry twins must be v careful, dun walk too much too k.. Take care..
Hi devi
Ya, high chance u r getting a gal as guys usually will open their leg wide due to the ball..Hee.. Btw, u prefer gal or boy? When going to be ur detail scan again?

Ah Kat,

Elle,
Yes, I can understand exactly what u meant by not wanting to waste anymore time....
My doc is at Mt E - I will be seeing him this week to discuss the protocol and work around the date....I most prob would push for july.
Use this resting time to take care of yrself and do what you can help to increase the chance...good luck! We all need that!

Joanne,
All these are GOD wishes.. If we are granted with two.. so take care.. About buying clothes for twin just during 3mths... I think its pantang.. My parents don't let me buy BBs stuff till 6 months onwards...
Like I say, I will buy the necessary items only.. Not over it...
This time round when looking at my twin, I was laughing to see thier buttocks and they keep on swimming... No tears this time... Just pray to GOD everyday that they are healthy....
When expecting, we just need plenty of rest and eat good food that all.
Btw, Joanne I think that not all girls and boys are cross legged one. One of my friend who already deliver tot its girls cause everytime cross leg one, when delivery its a boy.... BB sometimes want to play hide and seek one

Hi all, am new to this forum.
Had a failed first attempt on iui even though the odds seems rather high that time... 3 eggs & 36m good sperms swimming up.
going for my second today. had 4 eggs above 10mm during my second scan (2 days before trigger). Was very happy thinking that chances now increase but to play safe, requested for another scan before the trigger and found that 2 eggs strunk and the other 2 big ones were growing very slowly (aound 16mm).
Gynea say must trigger immediately to save the 2 eggs before they go away... I am beginning to wonder whether that is the reason of failed first attempt as well. does anyone has any similar experience of eggs strinking?
I guess the hormones injection is taking effect on me... I can't stop thinking... loads of questions in my mind... why my eggs strink...why doesn't my eggs grow beyond 16mm? will I ever be pregnant? is it something that I ate that i am not supposed to? Is it because i went to 2 wedding dinners and kena "chong"?
Is there anything I can do to improve this condition? I tried egg white this month and think it works as i got 4 eggs initially.. what went wrong?
going crazy...

Hi Shu Shu,
Just think positive this time round. Many sisters here can give you some advise. Miracles happen and maybe you will BFP this time round?

I also failed my IUI...AF just reported 10 days after my IUI. I wonder should I continue to wastemoney & time on IUI or go straight to IVF...Most gyne will keep asking u to try 2 times of IUi before IVF...but I don't feel like wasting time since success rate so low..+ my huby sperm swimming up only 8M compare to Shu 36M
Shu, May I know where u did you IUI?
Shu, May I know where u did you IUI?
Thanks Sam! I really hope for a BFP this time coz watched the chinese programme yesterday morning and the male dr from NUS was saying that iui is only effective for 2 times... so am really scared especially this time that i know the eggs are strinking... *keep fingers cross*
Hubby say that it must be because of the thai green mango salad I ate... now feeling very regretful...
Hi Hope, did my iui with Raffles Hospital went there coz my friends told me that they have very good fertility doctors.

Elle, when you go for next round of IVF?
I still can't decide whether to go SGH or NUH. Friend suggested to see PC Wong at NUH.
Anyway i will just call KKH first, if really can't make it for IVF in July, then will try SGH and NUH, see which hospital can give me the earliest timing, then i will go there.
