IVF/ICSI Support Group

hldrops: I'm lost already although this is my third attempt. What is hcg mean? My first attempt failed is cos bleeding came earlier than bt date but when i rush down to O&G and they din give me any bt or any injection for support. D O&G doc ask me to wait till bt date then test but din manage to as full mensus came before d bt date. Kkivf nurse still ask me to wait till bt date and go for bt and result came out is negative. second attempt is i have some bleeding before fet but doc still advised to do it as d embbies has been unfreeze so cant freeze it back then have some bleeding few days later after fet and so I went to c dr lau and he give me extra insert medicine for support and d bleeding stopped and noting happen till bt date. So i though im preggy but then nurse call me to said sorry you are not pregnant and I cried like hell d whole day.
 


my beta was 26.4 yesterday and it dropped to 11 today. tmrw I will not go for blood test again. I consider I fail this cycle as I sought doc loh opinion. its not a viable pregnancy. no point sustaining it. im stopping my support n let menses come full flow. next mth or so I try natural and see how. then I go for another fresh cycle next year. dropping beta means the embryo implanted thats why producde beta into the blood stream but the embryo is not growing well or it may hv stop developing thats why the beta reduces. I shld be glad I know it now rather than later which is eveb harder to accept for eg heart beat stops. or baby stop growing in 8 weeks. thats even worse. I consoled myself. felt devastated but I snapped out of it today.

santhiya : if yr beta doubles there is hope. wish u all the best!!.

its divine time. its just not the time for me.

I know some pple fail 3x and 4th time got a pair of boy girl twins! we keep trying and getting stronger.

Mrs_tann: rest well, continue to see tcm and who know you will get it naturally as cases like this did happen before.
 
tks. so now wait for it to.miscarry (menses).

both dr sad n dr loh told me its not a viable or healthy pregnancy. v hard.to accept but no choice... nezt yr im gg to tell my boss I hv to try ivf again need to take HL again. I shld be black marked already but dont care le. just do what I need to do.

wonder how is pink bunny21?
 
Me and my husband Both healthy and doc didn't say why I can't conceive. That's why we tried iui last month.now is the time to decide whether to go for ivf or not.
Hldrops, so this is ur first ivf and u success? So envy.
Looking at the timeline, I need to go for ivf or iui in October, or else I mind need to wait until march as me and my husband planning to go for trip end of dec, and after that is the cny time. Sigh.. Really dunno when I can get pregnant. :(
 
in my 14dp3dt now.. been having cramps on n off.. yest had some egg white discharge.. this morning saw some reddish discharge.. sigh v worried now that AF is coming..
BT is tmr.. praying really hard now
 
GingerH: dun worried too much. Have positive and relac thinking, talk to ur embbies n ask to hang on strong. Continue with d insert, bed rest more and possible wear socks to keep your feet warm and have more warm water.

Hi hi.. I am new to the thread! *wave*
Santhiya, sorry to hear that. Do rest well and will be rooting for you again for the nov round.
I am in the midst of my first IVF and it is stim day 6. Was extremely fatigue the first 3 days but am alot better now. Waiting for first review tomorrow. Just want to check with you gals what is the typical number of days to jab. I know it depends on the follicle growth but I have been getting alot of clear mucus and that has always been an indication of pending ovulation for me and I am worried I will ovulate early!
BTW, may i know what the acronym of 14dp3dt means? i only know DPO means day past ovulation.
ohoh.. one more question, anyone avoid caffeine completely for IVF? Does it matter? I usually have one a day but been wondering if i should cut off completely.
Sorry for the number of questions. :p
 
hugs santhiya...take care and rest well.....build up health for next round.

3 egg whites per day? wooh..that sounds like a lot. eat before ivf injections?

Hi! My STIM jab was about 9 days. It will range typically about 10 days there about fm what I got fm the nurses.
14dp3dt is the 2ww period where it's already 14 days past 3 day transfer(meaning the embryo transfer)
Ain't too sure abt the caffeine ....
 
Jasbran, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone produced when a woman is preggy. I am sorry to hear all the heartaches u went through. hope this time wld be okay
 
Hi everyone.. Thanks for all the consoling.. I call KKH to informed them abt my AF..I am told to go for blood test tomorrow morning to make sure my HCG level has dropped as my result yesterday was 12.6 which is a early pregnancy rate..
 
Rashal: since when you started to take d Blackmore pregrancy & breast feeding vitamins? As I just started to take d Blackmore conceive well gold only and gg fr my fet next monday

Hi Jasbran, I started taking as soon I tested positive on my HPT(home pregnancy test kit) coz heard good reviews abt that multivitamin..I've checked with my Dr Sadhana too and she said I can continue eating the multivitamins..I can also take the folic acid prescribed by KKH on top of Blackmores Pregnancy and Breastfeeding multivit...

U taking FET too? All the best to you..basically dun stress urself..I went kite flying 3 days after transfer...heehee...and brazil nuts help too...
 
Santhiya, take care and have a lot of rest.

Hi nureiliyah, u take taking egg white after et?

Can I know where to get the Brazil nut? Can I get it from super market?
 
Santhiya, I am sorry to hear ur news...I cried during my first 2 IVF and during the 3rd IVF, when I got the news of a neg preg, I just shrugged it off..
But please dun give up in this journey...
I have had 3 IVFs and this FET is the only time I get BFP...even then, I also worry whether this pregnancy is healthy...
Hang in there Santhiya..rest ur body and come back again stronger...

Tinga, u can take 2-3 brazil nuts per day from the start of ER but do hv lotsa water after eating the nuts as it can get quite heaty...
U can also try the Blackmores Conceive Well Gold in ur 2ww to increase ur chances of ur embryos implanting..

I read online that eating nuts in pregnancy is still ok but not too many..ard 3-4 nuts are enough..i had googled online for this Lumiglow cream and it helps with women who have fibroids,cysts,endo,pcos and for those who hv history of miscarriages,this can help to sustain a pregnancy..no harm trying coz been applying since Dec 12..
