During my 1st consultation with Dr Loh in Feb 09, my BT is 2 days away from 6 mth expiration, but they did not ask me to re-take, they still take it as valid, and I am starting Lucrin in Mar 09. But on same day, they did request for HIV screen, TP Antibodies and HEP B. Maybe these were done more than 6mth ago. Since you already had records with them, I don't think they will ask you to re-take.

Hi Boon Boon ,
You should go and relax too.. no need to be expensive type.. save that for the ivf and bb..
If you like beaches, u can consider Tioman/Bintan.. if u like massage and shopping , Batam & Thailand.. i feel that we should spoil ourself before looking at the jabs daily.. cos after starting , we cannot travel as the medication needs to be in refrigerator.. during my 2ww, i went to penang and puket with virgo cruise, it is too hactic.. so i decided to enjoy all out before starting.. keke

So you confirmed starting in Apr09? Fresh, how do you book a slot? I don't think I told them when I signed up I wanted to do it in May. When I signed up, i told the nurse we might be doing it in Feb. But since my company didn't approve my leave, got to postpone till May. I e-mailed Dr Sadhana abt this in Jan09, she said it's fine to do it in May09 lah. But it's not been communicated to the nurses at the KKIVF centre yet, I reckon.
hi ladies out there:
hope this little action may help cos it helps me
remember to do a gentle rotate in circle motion clockwise after u have jab ur abdomen.

on stage 2 day 5-180
day 9-596
day 12- 2153
day 15-4478

Hi ladies ,
1st of all congrat to those who have BFP, and for those who have BPN dont give up go for few more try.
I am 38 years old with Dr Loh (KKH)

My dad had a brainstem stroke on that night and before the stroke kick in i still remember dad called my name and ask to go dinner .....guess what that is the last time i hear him call my name because after we send him to hospital he was in COMA and never wake up.
I postpone my appointment with Dr Loh from 6 jan 2009 to 10 Feb 2009 so finally i went to see him on time he said we will start IVF , at that moment i shd feel exited but i am not because i can't bring myself to cheer up everytime i think of my dad lying in SGH sleeping all the way. So DR Loh ask me to fix appointment with KKIVF to fix a month ,sign forms bla bla bla and so they have arrange me for that on 18 FEB 2008 something bad happen again ...........
My beloved dad pass away on 17 FEB 2008 so i have to postpone my appointment on 18 Feb again !!!! so i postpone to 27 FEB 2009 with KKIVF then 2 day before the appointment my uncle pass away (dad's younger brother)at the point of time i was like so depress,sad and missed my dad so badly till i have no mood to do anything but i just want to have my dad back to the family......
i break down into pieces again when i send my uncle to Mandai all the memory are back again 1 week ago.......
I have finally sign consent form and will start in May ,i am not sure whether i can be positive about it when May and june comes but i will try to cheer up as much as possible as from now i still missed him so so so badly .........hai~~~

Hi Fairyrose,
It should be hard for you to take the blows..
Please take sometime to grieve and stand up again. Life is within anyone control, i believe your dad or uncle does not want you to be very upset..and they do hope that u will have your babies.. Go on and cry but set a limit to it.. it is good that u start in May to stabilise your emotion.
Most of us here have went thru big up and big down too... this includes passing away of the close ones or even miscarriage baby... Look at all of us, we are standing upright and getting ready to fight for happiness.. When bad things happens - Some of us just cry whatever we do , wherever we are.. importantly , we must ensure we recover and not going into depression.
IVF is another challenge that you will be facing in May'09... set your target right and "FOCUS" .. leave your dad and uncle in your heart always , they will give you the blessing and protect you.
Take this month to cry and scream .. then prepare your body for the next challenge..
if you need a listening eyes , we are all here at the forum for you... If u need a listening ears , call me ...
Smile now
Hugz Hugz .. " STAY FOCUS"

Fairyrose,
Sori to hear abt ur lost. Be strong and remember everything happens for a reason. Life and Death is not in our control however when someone soo dear passes on, we take time to remember them but we must also stand up again n move on with life. Give urself time. Talk to someone or even us coz talking helps relieve pain..
God bless ya.

Hi fairyrose,
sorry to hear about it. Do stay strong and positive. Your dad and uncle will always be by your side supporting you. Share with you my experience. When i was trying to conceive 2 yrs ago, my grandma passed away suddenly. I was miserable then but i know that she loves grandchildren. I never gave up trying and this year i am even more anxious to get an 'ox' baby as she is also born in the year of the ox. I am hoping to have a baby to have memories of her and i am sure she will be smiling and blessing me.
