Nurul, sorry to hear ur news. Since u've striked before, I think u'll bfp naturally again wif no problem yar. Hope u'll strike soon & followed by smooth-sailing pregnancy.
I also wanna exercise to lose weight.. dunno how much I've gained since the start of this year, scary.

Prosepina, I also just did ET today. No embryos to freeze since the embryologist dun think they'd survive. A bit heartpain.. Anyway, now's it's our job to take care of those transferred embryos transferred as much as we can

 

[happypinky]

Fou fou, is the massage at her place or home visit? N how long does it take? Is there any time of the month need to avoid, e.g. having mense?
Thanks in advanced.

 

[happypinky]

Moo3moo, stay positive n cheer up. Who knows the 2 embbies in your sides will turn into twins. Jia you.

 

[luvnhope]

Aiyoh, feeling bloated after hCG jab yesterday.

Congrats on ET too, moo3moo!

 

[hopeful_ting]

Nurul, sorry to hear that. Take care of yourself, tiao yang your body and try again naturally. I've heard stories of my fren's Fren who did Iui and ivf but failed.... Then later conceive naturally. Must have faith and hope.

 

[bbjourney]

Luv, how many days after ET liao?

 

[luvnhope]

Bbjourney, did my ET on 26 May, so shld be 7dp2dt?

 

[bbjourney]

Luv, hope the bloating continues. @winks@

 

[adejoy]

Moo3moo, may all embbies hold tight tight until you. It's important to maintain a positive mindset. I have read somewhere that it'll help by talking to your embbies too! Jiayou and hope to collect babydust from you!

 

[adejoy]

Hi Luv, what is the hcg jab for?

 

[luvnhope]

Bbjourney, hahah... thanks! Much as I don't enjoy the bloating, i'll take it if it means a BFP!

Joyfully, the hCG jab's supposed to help promote implantation i suppose. Think you would get 3 hCG jabs, but i only had 2 cos on the day of ET, they only gave me progesterone jab in case of OHSS. Had the 2 jabs when i went back for progesterone and E2 BT.

 

[luvnhope]

Wait, correction! I think the hCG jab is supposed to trick our ovaries into thinking that there's a pregnancy so that they can produce more progesterone and support the uterine lining. So indirectly helps implantation lah.

 

[moo3moo]

happypinky, Luv, Joyfully, thanks! Ya, trying to stay positive positive. It's gg to be a long 2ww. Glad to have many sisters here.

[verone_baby]

Moo3moo, how come u just done ET today? U ER on 28May. U r doing D4 embryos? That's very good

Hope4baby, my gf did not make it,she spent $41k for a fresh and a medicated fet, I think the $$spent do long got outcome then worth it,

Luv, I think in kk no hcg jab right? U r in better hand, I'm sure u can make it

 

[luvnhope]

Prosepina, actually KK also gives hCG jabs from what I know if eggs retrieved are less than 15. Tio bo, i1BB?

 

[nurul_huda]

Shainie, Usagi

 

[i1bb]

Luv, yes!

 

[luvnhope]

Thanks for confirming, i1BB! Going on any more trips soon?

Prosepina, what support do you have from KK?

 

[nurul_huda]

[verone_baby]

I only got inserts wo. Going back for bt on D5. Shd I ask on the day of BT?

 

[fou_fou]

Nurul, i1bb & Happypinky... Ya the massage is home based one. I have not try it. Location is at Tampines, my fren told me per session abt $90 or more. Shld do after AF... So I thought of calling after my AF gone.

 

[nurul_huda]

Fou Fou oh reali? Wah so expensive. May i know wat service she does? Tampines near my area. Mayb can go together n try...

 

[luvnhope]

Prosepina, yeah, maybe u can ask them or even call to ask b4 you head down?

 

[cat_quek]

propspina,
may i know your friend is female or male problem?

ya..is a lot of money spent..sigh..i just hope for the best...also cannot afford another cycle if fail.

 

[adejoy]

Thanks for the explanation, Luv!

 

[Lambi]

joyfully/luvNhope-

the hcg jab-think named 'pregnyl' is for final maturation of the eggs..that's why it's purposely and carefully timed to coincide with ER to enable fruitful egg harvest

 

[luvnhope]

Chrisl, i'm not referring to the trigger jab.

I'm referring to the support jabs after ET. Some clinics practise giving hCG jabs after ET to help support implantation. Do they do that in Norway?

 

[thocat]

Nurul: Take care .Jiayou jiayou

Prosepina / i1BB: kkh also never give me any jab...mine also less than 15 eggs

how come so many different practises.
Mc and blur_ xuan : did kk give u guys any hCG jabs ?

 

[Lambi]
