Dragonhopes,
Yeah, maybe is a good move to try naturally next. You will have less stress and I think you will be still quite fertile after the SO-IUI, a friend of mine also took a rest after her SO-IUI. And who know, she got pregnant straight away after that cycle. Now she is a mother of two!I think Kate also got preggie after her SO-IUI. So I strongly believe you will still be fertile after this. Don't stress yourself and relax ya. Of cos meanwhile you can proceed with your plan to get referral letter and so on so that you won't waste your time. I hope you will be the one who got BFP like Kate ya. Jia you!
Rollybear,
Thanks, ya, I think Prof. Wong's action is very quick and rough. This is my first IUI with him, I did my first IUI with Dr. Stephen Chew without any spotting and discomfort at all.
HB's troop this time also not as good as my first IUI. Arg! I think I better not too much hope on this but will keep myself positive.
Cherrie,
Yes, we can go straight to try for another IUI on our next cycle. But I am consider private patient in NUH, cost will be a bit higher too. Sometime I also wonder if I am pushing myself too hard or giving myself too much stress to insist myself to try every month. Maybe is good to take a break in between and allow ourselves to rest and relax a bit. But on the other hand, we have only 12 chances each year, don't wish to waste any precious chance. Sign...
Gals,
Who else is in 2ww now? I think most of you are ending your 2ww now. I am only at DPO2. Still long way to go!

Chompchomp,
You also got preggie naturally? Share with us ya.
Cherrie,
I can't remember the exact number. But my HB asked Prof. Wong before the IUI on his troop performance, he commented that the count not very good. Anyway, his previous SA was no good too, morphology is only 2%. Low count with low morphology = low hope. Don't care lar, let fate decide, will still do whatever I can.

@dragonhopes: i'll be gg overseas coming Wed for 8D. By the time I'm back i'll pass my CD12. So i'm still not sure if i should still go for iui this round. Maybe i'll call NUH later to check what's their advice.
@heatherwhite: thank you for your encouragement. Yes new cycle...new hope!! How are you doing? Jia You ya

just called NUH, Prof Wong is not ard again and will only be back on next Monday. I was thinking to see him tomorrow to discuss with him the failure and whether I should proceed with IUI or SO-IUI. If I remember correctly, for SO-IUI you all need to be on jab from CD2 right?
what do you gals think? should i be on natural or try iui again when i'm back? abit lost now

Rollybear, vacation with Hubby? Some did injection from cd2-10+ and I guess it will be difficult carry those jab. Hmm..think u can try naturally for this round. Who's know u will make it overseas.
When I did my SO-IUI I just started jab in cd8 and only 3 jabs. Maybe too few for me to conceive. My DH mortality is at 98% after sperm wash. I guess is my prob

hi gals, how many IUIs do you all think we should go for before IVF? Anyone of you know the procedure of IVF?
Dragonhopes, do not think this way. I believe is nobody's problem, is just not the time yet. Don't worry, we must be strong and work harder again.
BTW, my HB's troops is 35million counts for this IUI, do you all know if this amount is good?

Cherie, it's only take 1 troop to make baby
so don't care good or not. Many doesn't mean good. My DH have 80millions. I told him 八十万大军，全军覆没。
dragonhopes, yes vacation to Korea
time to relax & escape from this little country of us too
mmhh...how come you only started on cd8? what did your gynae told u?
I'm going to see Prof Wong when he is back on Monday..so let's see what he say
Yes..agreed with Cherie I don't think is anyones problem...I strongly feel if we give our best and yet it did not turn out the way we want it to be, it is just fated. So don't give up, be strong & patience is all we need

heatherwhite,
Thanks for your birthday wishes. My birthday is next Saturday. You are the first.Enjoy your Batam trip too.
I am on my DPO14 today,no see red yet. But I think my AF will report to me soon.
My DH troops is 38 millions for this IUI. Dr Chew told us that 1 millions then for 1 chance.
Rollybear,
Leave all this in Singapore and enjoy your trip at Korea. Maybe your baby is made in Korea.
Where can buy the Blackmore Conceive Well???

Tomorrow I'm going to do my 'route mapping'. Hopefully, with the "GPS" system in place, my next IUI will be a successful one

Merry,
There are successful IUI cases before. A colleague of mine got preggy on her 1st attempt and that was many years back. Hopefully we are the lucky one before attempting the last resort, IVF.
Good luck!

I went for the talk on ART (Assisted Reproductive Technology) at NUH yesterday.
The talk basically cover IUI, ICSI and IVF. For those of us who are in the midst of IUI or SO-IUI, it's no alien to us. It's more for those couple who are about to seek help or seeking alternate options. What I find it insightful is the video clips on NUH embryologist lab workflow and the training lab was opened for public viewing on that day.
The Q&A session was a good opportunity for the public to post their doubts. Now at least I'm aware that for IVF procedures (1st attempt), the cash outlay would be abt $1k after the government subsidy and medisave deduction.
Will I go again? Only if I have more questions and doubts as it's the best time to address them. Both Prof Wong and Dr Chew are in a more relax mood compared to consultation time.

Heatherwhite,
Yes, I took Clomid 50mg for this cycle. The Chinese sensei Xia Rong was asking me why I took clomid since I can ovulate myself.
I think I was disappointed with the failed IUI and this time I want to be more kiasu! Well, I was thinking I'll not rely on drugs on next cycle (keeping my fingers & toes crossed!)

Babyseetoh, I went to that talk also. Find Dr.Chew very humor. I'm not going to NUH, it is too far for me.
We'll pray hard for you! How many IUI have you tried? We ask Dr.Chew, how many round of IUI we shd try before we proceed to IVF? he said 3 some ppl get it in their 4 or 5th try. Sigh! I'm kind of sien..
Anyone of you did HSG before? Just wonder can still ttc for that cycle?

Hi gals,
It's Monday again. Let's start our week fresh!
RollyBear,
Have you back from Prof. Wong? what Prof. Wong suggest to you?
BabySeeToh,
Dr. Xia Rong is a famous fertility TCM sinseh, I am sure you will be well taking care of under her. Yes, just followed what your heart tells you to do. Go with your comfortable decision. We gals will be here to support each other!
Like what Cherie said we must have faith, be strong and jia you till the day we success!
BTW, what is ICSI? I heard of this but haven't go and find out more on this ICSI.
Tong Le,
How's your Desaru trip? I have a relax weekends in Bintan with family. But tired and having Monday blues today. haha... Regret not taking one day leave to rest at home. I took the earliest ferry from Sg to Bintan and latest ferry back to Sg... hehe...
Dragonhope,
I think we are not encourage to travel during the first Trimester. But few of my friends did it and were fine. I guess also depends on individual. HB and I also planning to go for a longer trip. Thinking to go Europe sometime in Sept or Oct. But till now only say, nv really go and book yet. Haha... Maybe will really go and book the trip if this cycle fails again...

hello beautiful mummies-to-be and also my dearest Heatherwhite and Dragonhopes! So happy to see familiar faces in here.
Just a short one on me - I have been TTC #1 for 2 years plus and have slight PCOS. Im sharing the same TCM as Heatherwhite and same fertility gynae as Dragonhopes
Im here because I will embark on SO-IUI soon and hope to get some moral support! Previously was on two cycles of clomid and Gonal F jabs but no luck.
I didn't know NUH offers IVF too. Anyone knows the success rates for both KKH or NUH? I wonder why govt is not extending their subsidy to the private hospitals... sad.

Haha... so nice to see you here.
Yeah... PhyLee is my good and supporting TTCing buddy since I joined our TCM sinseh forum. hehe...
Ya, NUH offers IVF too. And actually this is part of the reason why I choose to see Prof. Wong from NUH. I am preparing myself just in case if one day I really need to proceed with IVF.
At least no need to change doctor again. I hate the feeling of changing doctors.
Rollybear,
Ya, you are right. Cost is really building up with all the bills each time when going back to NUH. I throw all my bills and stop keep track on how much we have spent. I guess this will make me feel happier... haha...
