Am now at kkivf.. Gonna collect my lucrin medications today! Woah, so many people here..
Finally, am starting my ivf journey officially.. The wait was so irritatingly long.. Now that the time has come, I shall stay as positive as I can be..
Hopefully everything goes on smoothly for all!
Take care to those in 2ww and could be very much preggers!

good afternoon ladies.
just bk from hospital. today went for my pregnyl jab. nuh do pregnyl jab on day4 n day day7 after er. today i learnt how to mix e jab. so sat i will administer myself.
hi mms, forget to answer ur other questions. if u n ur hub never do fertility test b4 or ur report is more than 6 mth, prof might request u to do another fertility test. u may did the test in one mth n start e ivf process in e next mth. but prof normally will suggest u to do 3 times iui 1st if tube no blockage n spermies morhpology n mobility not veri bad. i oni did twice iui n insist to proceed to ivf. e younger age u do ivf, e higher is e success rate.
mi also under dr zou accu for 4plus mths. took her chinese med but stop after i start my ivf as prof does not encourage to take tcm med. some of e tcm med contents r unknown so dunno whether will hav side effects wif e suppression n stimulation jab.

Hi bingo
Oh.. Sorry to affect u.. As me also mc twice two yrs ago so very careful with wht we eat.. Yes, tcm is natural herds but still we must gap 2hr before take any western medi so if injection, it always in our body then will it conflict with it? Sigh.. So to be safe, i only take accu since i hv always been taking tcm medi for one yr before i start ivf.. If only few mths no take then shd be ok ba..
but during 2ww, i take again.. is really up to u, hope u dun be affect by me too much.... Just to share my thots only..
Hi melodi

J03, no rain
sweating again.
Yes, I am same like serene need to go kk for the pregnyl jab, other than that no support le. Dono enough or not. Actually I have a box of left over progesterone pill from iui last year but don't dare to anyhow take. Do you gals take your own support?
Ron, good luck no bleeding today is a good sign already.
Serene, wow you have good cells. I don't know about the cells of mine actually. But think mine not very good. Slightly fragmented too. Any sisters have cells with moderated fragmentation too? A bit disapointed they don't look like the perfect round shape i saw in internet. Hopefully my embbies can zheng and I know they will

ron- tat's good news, no spotting today =).. jus to share... my fren got spotting for quite a few days.. she tot AF reporting, and kept waiting and waiting, but no full bleed...finally took hpt kit 6 days later and discover BFP (conceived naturally)... baby's fine despite all the spotting... the spotting also continued after that for many days...so, stay positive.. one more day to go, excited for U!
ron, we shld start talking abt positive things, like what to eat to celebrate, when BFP!...
j03- i'm going in morn, but going with mom, so got to wait for her to reach my house first then take cab.. so will be not so early...hmm...ohh, actually is the SA test of my hubby, he did one jus as i was starting lucrin (he din need to do it actually as he did one 6 mths ago, but due to some reason, he said jus do for fun, see got improvement after tcm)... the results were really bad, 6 mths ago, already borderline pass, then now was fail.even tcm was surpised..add on my hubby kept getting insomnia due to stress at work.hubby's morale also dropped to all time low. seems everything was going downhill at that time..i emailed dr loh and he told me he'll do 100% ICSI.. looking back, it was a blessing in disguise, if he had not done the latest SA test , prob will have lower # of embryos to freeze... hubby also started clearing leave during these few weeks, to de-stress, guessing it helped with the improvement...jus feel sad sometimes knowing i may never be able to conceive naturally...
jt- will u be testing on the hpt kit? =p... isit, i read from ron somewhere, if we use inserts, will not have false positive?

J03 - can wear a long cardigan. I wear dresses to work & tcm suggested to change to pants/jeans (my office is casual). Can also take a shawl and just bunch it up & put at tummy area when sitting down. also can consider wearing black leggings under her dress.
jt- hmm..is hai pai tian xing a short or long drama series... i'm easily addicted.. so trying to control and watch short ones only..like personal preferences only has 16 episodes.. ya the guy inside so good looking, perfect face, perfect body..Lee Min Ho..omg jus googled him, born in 1987...so young and so successful
<font color="0000ff">Dear Ron,</font>
That really helped loads!!! Many unfamiliar terms but it's good that i now have something to refer to. Have saved it in my word doc. Thanks!!!!
<font color="0000ff">Dear Serene,</font>
That is really helpful too!!! From the looks of it, I can only do the IVF in June, during school hols, tho i still need to go back to school almost every week le... Events, camps, meetings, workshops, training, etc etc... Where is the NUH IVF thread? I'd join u gals there too!!!
<font color="0000ff">Hey gals,</font>
Am also rather depressed seeing so many preggie frens. I have a lot of friends added on FB from the TTC thread, I have switched off all their updates actually, too much on babies. I recall 1 gal un-friend all the TTC friends to rid the updates and then re-friend them when she was preggie, I think. Switching updates more conveneint, less political. I also switch off my students' status updates, too many! Lol.
It is depressing and demoralising sometimes but good to have a bunch of supportive ladies here, pressing on together, sharing the same dreams and walking the same journey
Jiayou to all!!!

Hi Ron,

I think it will just passby again..btw, I read the past archieve and realise that this week you are also taking your own leave?? U only take one week HL leave last week to avoid co collegues suspect also huh?? THanks for the tips on how to keep my womb warm... So sweet of you... Hope your bt result will be great bfp result for you.. JY!!
Hi CLB,

Hi J03, yes i might test for fun too end next week. Although it is still early but since I have quite a few left over hpt so should be ok to know when the pregnyl jab is gone. Sometime it is shiok to see the positive line even though we know it is false positive I am perspiring too.
Hi CLB, don't be discourage. My DH also has bad result due to very stress work and other issues. Luckily KK do ICSI else I might not even have a chance to try. But just think of next cycle I must do fresh again very sian and stress already. If just one ovary working again how
Nevertheless, hope that our embbies will guai guai do their part this round
