Don't feel good. Sometimes I feel like I don't have a supportive husband. Sorry, gals, a night like this and I can't sleep. I have a partner who just want to find fights with me and leave me alone… sad… but I already chosen this path… nobody can understand how I feel in situation like this and no support at the end…

hi hokkiado,
when do u start on the progesterone support for the FET process?
hi wayng
with all the pressure Im sure you feel really nervous and hormones going everywhere. try to think on the bright side and salut yourself for being so brave and coming this far, you are almost there! maybe he jux feeling so helpless to see you so worried... relax yourself ok, maybe go out with some friends, maybe those who doesnt know abt ur IVF and just talk about any other things under the sky! meanwhile, good luck for the ER!

good luck with your scan today.
hazel,
when can you test hcg? are you still feeling very bloated?
the bloatedness got worse - now feeling so yucky and could not sleep whole of last night. like no comfortable position to be found
wayng
keep your end goal in mind, focus on that. there are cycles that i went through alone cos hubby was travelling, got to go scans alone, even ET alone, but what kept me going was 'the purpose' and 'the end'. you can do it! women are stronger than men!
daintreez
hang in there, no symptoms can be just as good, means you got a smooth pregnancy. most pregnancies are normal with little/no symptoms. IVF pregnancy is like normal pregnancy once pregnancy is confirmed.
good luck with your scan today.

Wayng, good luck with ER and rest well after. Don't let anything get you down. Like Babymaking, I also went through the cycle alone because hubby was traveling. And worse, when nurse called to tell me I might have chemical pregnancy, my hubby was with me for a while but at night, he chose to go out with his friends. So there I was battling with my own emotions. But I know that I am strong enough to go through this. So, hang in there! You can do it!

Dainztree。..wat I read in Internet is tat the soreness of breast will go off slowly cos once yr body is used to the hormones.. It will no longer feel sore... Cos initially body n breast still not used to hormones .. So dun wori ..
I purposely taped documentaries about ivf procedures and couples undergoing them talking about their fears and worries. I played them during our normal tv watching time.
So every time we quarrel over my emotions and my "unnecessary" demands, I would tell him why dun u try injecting urself 2x a day and suffering through all the side effects, and worrying over each mile stone. All these will make ur emotions x10 in intensity. He kept quiet as he knows this is expected after watching so many of the documentaries.

kiasu meBlurlet, my DH also realized I've been really very emo since I embarked on this. Initially he was puzzled why am I always picking on him, but now he realized it wasn't me but the hormones... So now if I m ranting he just keep quiet n let me release my emotions n stress....
Are the rest of the sisters feeling the same?

Babymaking, I m bloated but there are good days n bad days. I drink at least 2 litres of water everyday to flush it out. So, it helps. U need to drink alot too. I know is tough but drink bit by bit every 15mins. At night I keep going to toilet n I hv been waking up with backaches. We transferred on the same day, but ur embyro was d3 while mine is d2. Thus, my BT is one day later than u.
Wayng, men are not us. They wun understand until they go thru the pains. My hubby used to be like this until we lost our daughter. He is a born catholic. Ivf is a no no for his religion. But now all he wans is a child. So he cant care less now. We women are alot better than men.

Hazel, sorry to hear that you lost your daughter. Although I am not sure what happen but I certainly hope that this round will be fruitful for u, Jia you!

Flowers, before that incident my hubby was complacent. He takes alot things for granted. Every check up to him is a routine since all was well. After that incident when my unborn daughter passed on suddenly without any signs, he has become more understanding & he realized that all was well did not mean anything until we carry the bb in our arms. I told him he went thru the pain of loss, but for me I hv to go thru more. The pain returned again when I had another m/c thereafter from frozen FET.
For every m/c that I go thru, my body went haywire! I will continue bleeding after d/c. First time it went back to normal after some medication. But 2nd time the medication did not work. All of a sudden, I hv a 5cm ovary cyst and a 1cm tissue in my womb in addition to the bleeding. Dr Loh asked me not to take any more med n let the body rest. Unless the bleeding gets heavier n it is prolonged. I saw dr Paul at tmc n he said the same.
After a couple of wks, it finally stopped. N the next cycle came back normal n I did a SHG check again. The 5cm cyst and 1cm tissue Miraclely disappeared. FYI, I did many SHG checks until the nurses at The department recognizes me. I scar easily so for every d/c I do I hv to do SHG after I recover to make sure the womb didn't scar. Dr Loh is v careful so he insists that I will do SHG coz he said his scan at his room is not accurate.
Just last yr itself, I did 3 SHG coz I had 2 d/c. Is a torture. Pp who d/c, the next mth their cycle is bk. My wun one. My hub saw me going thru this again n again. He now understand n is more supportive.

Dr Loh is trying to make my path smoother. If there r scarring after d/c, he will do another op to fix it. If not, scarring will affect the chance of implantation and increase m/c risk.
Last yr was an eventful year. Not only did I hv to go thru 2 m/c, I hv to be induced To deliver my daughter. I hv to deliver her but she was already gone when I delivered her. My hub n I saw her. He Wsnted to give her a proper funernal. So, we hv to arrange all these when we hv yet to recover fr the loss. Till now I can still remember how she looked like when she was born. I will nv forget.

reading your experience again made me feel so much for you. i can't imagine having to be so strong emotionally and mentally to go thru the delivery process knowing there's no live baby at the end of it. *brave gal*
i know what you mean when u say kkh staff recognize you. i had this weird experience at the OT when the anesthesiologist and the junior doc recognize me and even commented that 'i am back' for another d/c, csycopy (sp?)like twice within 6 mths.

Hazel, you are truly an inspiration..
Daintreez,
I had a scare just like you abt a week ago.. My boobs didn't feel sore anymore.. Went to search thru the Internet it it says that it's a sign of u-kno-what.. Was so scared! Moreover, I started spotting.. And I read it's a symptom of blighted ovum.. But, I did see a heartbeat and my baby is growing.. Sometimes reading too much just makes us more worried.. But I can't help it.. Nothing is confirmed until we have our bb in our arms.. I still worry till now..

Sara, thanks! Is the hope that pushes me To try again n again. We need to hv hope in life in watever we do. That propel us forward. Even Celine dion attempted ivf many times. But she succeeded in the end.
Babymaking went thru 2 fresh cycles n 6 FETs to gain a healthy boy. Not to even mention her failed iui attempts & miscarriages. So, as long as we dub give up, there is hope!
