tomoro should be delegating chores to hubby. Write a to do list. lolz.
Glad that you are feeling great after ER.
Anyway ladies, today I was asking Dr Zou, why ladies who experience ohss tend to be positive in pregnancy. Dr zou said that because their body reacts very well with puregon. And the body hcg reaches the preg hcg level before the egg was transferred in. Therefore as long as they are able to proceed with ET, and the eggs implant, then it will easily be a BFP. hmm...the first person that comes into my mind is NADIA!... can't wait to hear her bfp good news.
She also mentioned that the follicles in each ovaries should not exceed 30-33...because if there's too many follicles, no room for follicles to grow, then follicles will be small in size. So i guess anything ard 20-30 should be reasonable. Ideal size of follicles should be 18mm, and she said our hospital really compromising, 16mm already considered good le..haha...</font>

Hi to All,
I haven't been catching up with the updates in this thread for the last couple of weeks. The thread is moving too quickly. And for those ladies who are in their 2WW, take care & keep believing.
iloveshoes : Hihi, please take care and rest well.. keep us posted after your BT..excited for u..
syrah : Hihi, I am back again..
..Stress factor could have attributed to your longer cycle and that was what happened to me last month too. Many of us are just too overwhelmed with stress (Work stress + additional emotional stress due to IVF)..Think we really need to unwind our bodies & minds before we embark this tough journey.

why don't you try looking after the 2 yourself? for eg. my boys, then tend to poo poo in the morning and night or either. so i try to make sure my hubby let them clear their business before we goes to work. In that way, in the afternoon, they wont poo. Their meals will have it before we work, so during 2ww, will be before my hubby goes to work... Are your girls toilet-trained for pee pee?</font>

miracle - my poodle can stay with me, cos she's trained to poo in the morning before we go work and we only feed them at nite when we return from work. my maltese, super duper stubborn! she'll pee & poo when she's in the mood we try to coax until no saliva liao she just refuse, hubby worried if she poo after he go & work then I cannot clear their mess, I cannot leave it there till he come home lah
re jab: hubby jab me during iui, he's ok with it. so ivf I'll let him have the honour to jab me, must "suffer" together mah

Hi ladies, after TTC for abt 3-4yrs and trying out TCM for over a year, I've finally succumbed to IVF procedure. Signed the papers 2 days ago and will start in Oct. I was wondering if anyone can give me any advice to prep myself? After listening to the long briefing by the nurse, our minds were in a whirl. So much info to take in... Any ladies here see Dr Zou Yumin concurrently with your IVF treatment? Any advice is much appreciated!! =)

most of the ladies here are with Dr Zou.
I'm also starting my 1st IVF in Oct, but I'm signing my forms in Sept. Which hospital and dr are you with?
You can start with some supplements like folic acid, royal jelly, fish oil, etc. As most supplements need 3 months to see results, hence this is a good time to start =)
Just feel free to ask any questions here...we all will help to answer if we knows.</font>

Welcome soul! Which doctor are you with? Some of us here took supplements to prep ourselves.
1. Fresh Royal Jelly
2. Vit C
3. Folic Acid
4. Spirulina
5. Omega 3 Fish Oil
6. COQ10
Some of the ladies here go to Dr Zou. For me, I've just started seeing her for the medicine. Have not started on the accupuncture yet.

Hi ineedmiracle and pink! Thanks for replying so quickly.
I'm with Dr SF Loh at KKH who also did my laproscopy about 2yrs back. My left tube was blocked and I have PCOS, sadly. I did TCM for more than a year at Thong Chai with Dr Tan Siew Buoy but I didn't see results... maybe I am impatient but I figured I'm already 34 and cannot wait any longer.
I'm on folic acid and evening primrose now. So Dr Zou's medicine is in powder form?? The kind you dilute in water to drink? I'm scared of those. haha...
