Hi Ladies,
It has been a hectic week and quite a few changes at work.....but its TGIF ladies!!
Looking forward to the weekend! I will be having a small party with friends on Sat so have been busy planning the guest list, menu etc...
Me and HD have been trying to relax from all the TTC and we find that keeping busy with social events is a good way...it keeps us from dwelling on all the past TTC failures.
Our marriage is definitely stronger after all the 'happenings' and we have been spending alot of time together. I am sure all of you ladies feel the same way. We are blessed to find our life partner so even if we don't have kids, we have each other!
Hi Lyn,
Thanks for the invitation. Where and at what time are you ladies meeting? I will also be going to see my TCM on Sunday but if it is in town, maybe can drop by to say hello to you ladies.

i tried the capsule form and the liquid form which is mixed with honey. found that the liquid one works better. just mixed with water. get the one from GNC. i also have very irregular AF. even after metformin, my cycle still very long. found that after taking royal jelly, more cycles are shorter. so give it a try. but it doesn't happen straight away. i took abt 1 bottle plus before i saw a difference. give it a try. taste just like honey. very easy to drink. oh ya. must take before food.

Rostrum, no wonder i feel more lifely after taking royal jelly in the morning. I thought its the DOM i took before i slept that did the wonder. I having been taking nature's farm royal jelly tab for more then half a day liao. I found every since i started taking during fertile days has got alot more egg white mucus...
ros
haha.. royal jelly has no effect on me leh. haha.. still feel as sleepy.
oh. btw, just to clarify. fruits like apple which i listed in the above post does not use additional pesticide. it will retain more pesticide residue after washing.. erm.. so washing might not really help. maybe cut down?
meow
*waves waves* how have u been? long time no see,

Rostrum, the GNC lady told me that taking royal jelly is for vitality, so i guess shld take in morning.
Liz, when i do my juicing this morning, remember what u said, quickly peel off the apple skin, can't be lazy liao!!
Tigi i have this slight crampy feeling (just plain annoying although not painful) for a week liao. Maybe u can also try royal jelly as recommended by Liz.
Lyn, my hubby booked the universal studio tix on 2 April le. He said we go before the ET... (although still dunno when!!)
Sisters, went to watch "How to train your Dragon" yesterday. Think it is worth watching, the cartoon is drawn very nicely. It's in 3D

Meow, we all started to chat in this thread once babyg started it.. Meow, Liz has all along been using the same thread and i think she will be so heartbroken that u have forgotten her liao.. So i guess u have forgotten me too.. Me,babyg and Liz have met up again few times but didnt ask u along coz u didnt response to our email so we thought u r busy so dun dare to disturb u.. anyway goodluck for ur upcoming cycle..
Gan, ur hubby booked online? I thought of gtg 2 april too but i think not all rides are avaliable yet so i m still considering plus PH sure very crowded and got to wait hours for each rides is super sian and the downside is they close at 6pm. I wonder why so early coz osaka one closes at 8 or 9 pm.

Rostrum, juz treat them as igorant ppl. I understand u being fed up coz thr focus is on us for being difficult to conceive but if u look at another view some r being concern la.. Many ppl also ask me to go see this dr tan siew buoy. I did went to thong chai but saw another dr loh.. her attitude is bad and dnt answer ur questions most of the time,the feeling she gave me is we dnt pay she please dnt ask so much and also med needs to brew.. the long waiting quene turn me off coz we r working group. Those around me who BFP under dr tan siew buoy are full time house wife therefore they can afford to wait and goes every week so for us is sort of not possible... so sigh... When i sam this dr loh(another fertility sinseh in thong chai) she is quite strongly against ivf.
Rostrum, guess it's difficult for our frens to understand if they never been through the process we had.
Like some of my colleagues/friends, they also like to ask when i have bb? why i don't want to have? want to enjoy life etc.
Recently during a lunch, 1 colleague in front me told another colleague we have a rich woman among us..and the other immediately said "yes, double income no kids". aiya, i hear abit not happy it's not i don't want kids but tried hard these couple years but no news. but when they say that i just ignore lo and tell them " ya u all very good, next time old already got kids to take care, now is like saving in piggy banks. u have 2 piggy banks right??" because they have 2 kids. after i said that they start complaining abt their own kids...kekeke...attention not on me.

Wat will happen will happen, how much u think also doesnt help lor
lyn

Rostrum, if ppl gtg to ask u 2molo juz change topic... tell abt the weather, jack neo extra martial affair etc and hope they get the hints... dun be affected by them and spoilt ur mood.
As for ppl say we r rich coz we DINK then juz agree with them.. I also always gana. Everytime when my kilo spotted me with a new designer bag, one of my kilo will say now u no kids u can buy watever u like next time when u got kids dun think u can do so.. I juz say ya lor thats the advantage of being childless so maybe i can consider not to have kids. As for those $ that we have spent on ttcing no need to tell them coz thru my experience ppl wont pity u but they will find u very weird to spend $ juz to be pregnant...

Lyn and Meow, maybe i looked very stressed bah, these few months, colleagues who knows i am ttcing have suggested that i take no pay leave to relax at home.
But honestly for me, if i don't work i think i may be more stressed because the whole mind will think abt ttc
Meow when r u starting ur cycle? I cld missed ur post which u mention.
Rostrum when pple tomolo talks to u abt the charity show tomorrow, u just tell them "yes watched liao and donated. so must work now to earn back the donation." and pretent u are busy typing on ur keyboard, hopefully they will go away.

No, I din tel them abt my money spent on ttc cos they will never understand except for a handful of them...
