It was quite funny for me actually. The needle just pricked my skin n I went ouch mentally. Then as if on auto pilot the hand just moved slightly back n moved the needle in without any pain.

Gd pointer. I recalled someone said to numb area with ice cube before. However I was thinking to just try the 'original' way and see how it feels first.
 


yup... I went to after the failure of my 1st soiui in late April till Aug.

I drank her herbs but once ivf process started i didn't get her herbs. took her 2ww herbs (took 1 week's worth only)
 
jj, yah...it does helps. another trick is to numb it with ice, then swab to clean the area prior to jab. during my soiui i uses this little trick.also prior to jab, take a deep breadth.
but realize as the days goes by ( i jab abt 2weeks) pain progressively increaed, but tolerable lah.

pinkaddict,

generally iam a silent reader.. but today it took so much time to read the updates.. thread is super fast..

JJ i must tell you.. i was LOL yesterday night when u were describing your poo.. ha ha
 
microgynon is given to ladies whose AF isn't regular its a ocp to regulate the AF so the ivf process easier to control.

I noticed that the pain lessen when with lucrin (don't pinch the 'meat') then with puregon (pinch the 'meat')
 
wow .. got pple read what I post ... *touched*

going to do my 12am inserts.
Gers who going into 2ww, suggest u get packets of wet wipes (i bought pigeon's bb wipes) then u can clean the finger u used to insert (yucks)
 
jj ...thankx for the info.
oh, thanx for th calculator.
my usually rpts 25th or 26th. last cycle on clomid and dr zou say this cycle i should delay abt 2-3 days.

Prayhard - remember to continue to taking yr Folic Acid, found this website on what to eat &amp; what to avoid

http://pregnancychildbirth.suite101.com/article.cfm/food-to-eat-and-avoid-during-pregnancy
 
PrayHard,

basically, behave as per wht u did during 2ww. thts wht i did thru out my 1st tri... alot of rest is good... n follow the same diet don'ts.
 
panda - do u feel nausea when CARE give u gynera? last nite I was feeling so horrible that I wanna give up the whole cycle!
 
winniepooh, i was not on gynera leh.. maybe u check with angela or ning if its one of the side effects of the medication and how u can relieve the discomfort?

this is the beginning of the journey, must endure! think of positive hpt and a growing bump at the end of the ivf journey
happy.gif
 
pand - thanks! ning did tell me this is one of the side effect but I didn't know it was so bad! she advise me to take it at nite so that I won't feel so terrible. I'm tempted to call them &amp; ask if can change to another ocp med or not
 
whats ur schedule like? after gynera u will start gonal f or puregon?

most of the medication have some form of side effects tht reacts differently to different individuals...

maybe u can try taking it just before going to bed?
 
Hi all,

Just to share with you my little story.

If anyone can still remember my earlier messages, my natural FET was actually scheduled in Jul'10 but was cancelled due to my early ovulation. I was so sad, felt like crying when the doc-on-duty told me it has to be cancelled and try again next month.

In early Aug'10, I went for the 1st scan on Day8 after my menses, my biggest follicle is 6mm and lining is 8mm. "Follicle is too small, come back for your 2ns scan 3 days later", this was what the doc-on-duty told me...of course I felt so disappointed and hold on to my tears when I called my dh to tell him to get prepare that this cycle will be cancelled again...

On Day11, I went for my 2nd scan, my biggest follicle was 8mm and lining was still 8mm but the sonograher told me my lining was very nice but follicle too small...I almost wanted to cry out...while waiting for my turn to see the doc-on-duty, I was alone then, I kept asking myself what should I do next, what if the doc ask me whether want to give up this cycle, and monitor again next month, then what should I ans? I was lost...out of sudden, I thought of Dr Zou.

I called her and told her my condition, she said no need to give up still got chance, come and do acupunture and I subscribe some medicine for you...

And when it was my turn to see the doc, I told him we shall monitor and not give up so easily..he said ok and come back for 3rd scan 2 days later. And if the follicle is not more than 11mm, then this cycle has to cancel...my eyes were well up with tears when I walked out of the clinic..

I went for acupuncture daily and took Dr Zou's medicine for the next 2 days, and you know what, on my 3rd scan, my biggest follicle was 13mm and the doc-on-duty gave me the green light to proceed with my ET. As for lining I forgotten to ask then but on ET day, Dr Loh said it was good.

So to those who are trying and feel tired &amp; stress along the way, I can fully understand your feeling. Just do your best for every cycle and never give it up easily. I believe all can BFP one day. We all jia you, ladies

Mar discussion was abt 300.nw nt sure lei..will sign mg consent form in early sept..n same time take HIV test.u finish all d preliminaries test le yah??

Prayhard..congrats once again...multiples multiples....
Hehe..collecting bbdust fr u 
 
Prayhard, thanks for sharing ur story. After reading them, I felt more positive and trust Dr Zou even more. Rest well k and look forward to carry in the next 9 mths!
happy.gif
 
I really believe that Dr Zou's acupunture does help in some ways. See cases of Gan, Prayhard... even w/o herbs I believe acupunture alone will assist in some ways.
 
I don't remember last night's dream ... but don't think got any babies involved.. hahaha

I going to test again using tomor AM's urine then on BT day's AM urine again ... think i'm still in disbelieve so have to find proof again n again
 
<font color="0077aa">ceraine
