Fresh,
I contacted KKIVF liao. Spoke to Nurse Audrey. She was really nice. There are 2 types of sperm storage:
1) Valid only for one cycle at SGD160. If not used for this cycle, sperm will automatically be disposed.
2) Valid for one year at SGD350 (if i'm not wrong). If after one year, used or unused, will be disposed. So within the eyar can be used for more than one cycle if necc.
Develyn,
Abt the black & white thingy... erm ... i didn't ask for any lah. So spoke to Nurse Audrey just now and I told her.. last time I spoke to Nurse Yen, she said she'll book for me in April. I want to confirm that my name is in April slot. She said, don't worry, if the nurse already said you're due for April, then just call us when April comes. Nobody can bump you off. I was like... ooooooh... okies then! Hehe...

Develyn,
Confirmed, chopped, and stamped then. Will be starting in April! Weeeeehhhooooooo!!
Eh .. how come Dr Zhou never say anything abt my womb. Hot or cold or lukewarm. Khekhekhekhe! But last week, she took my pulse on my right hand.. then she went "Hmm" and took my pulse on the left hand. But she never said anything. I forgot to ask the assistant why Dr Zou "hmmm" at my pulse. Hmmm... Hmmm.... Hmmmm... ! But Dr Zou said, my menses very regular so that's good. Haha!

Lina,
I'm going for the one cycle storage. I didn't want to store for 1yr, cos dono leh .. maybe after one year, sperm quality also not very good anymore. Hehe ... so I be kiasu and opted for the 1 cycle only lah. When my hubby goes down to collect Lucrin, will probably collect sample on the same day too.

Orangey,
Hehe.. i waited since Dec08 tog et April09 slot okie. Khekhe .. try your luck lah. If can get, then that's good
Develyn,
Ya trying my best to get hubby to boost his health. But hor... like have less than 1.5mths to go. I'm not sure if anything miraculous can happen within that short period of time. I bought the Tribestan from Bloated. But I heard it takes 3mths to see any effect. Haiyah .... So now a bit at a loss. Hmm.. should I let hubby continue with TCM tablets till my ER day. Or switch to Tribestan now? Otherwise I'll get him to switch to Tribestan after ER only.
What say you?

Hi Sierra ,
For my opinion , u should stick to Tribestan.. do not take both together just incase of complication.. After tribester after ER will not help liao la... that one will be for your future natural babies
Hi Orangey ,
Yes.. let's squeeze.. we can hold hand on 2ww.. hold hand for BT..
Hi Zaza,

one cup only should be ok lah...my hubby drink coffee like plain water... told him to cut, he just bo chap... so give up, rather not argue with him. i just make sure he continues with daily multi-vitamin and drink more water (btw, he is also low count, but didnt want to add pressure, so let him be lor, just pray pray pray.)

A bit confused. So if we choose to have 3 embies to transfer, no government subsidy of 3k. Do we need to fork out additional cash on top of the forego 3k for the extra embyro?

I haven't done my D2 BT. Will be going for my next flow. They will automatically test for the Rubella or I need to ask them to check.
By the way, do we get the result immediately or I have to wait till I see doc? Only then they will ask me to take the jab?

Hi Fresh

meowmeow,
I hope so too. Ok, my hubby not so bad in the sense that he'll drink one cup every morning when he wakes up to "perk" himself up. But asking him to try and cut down if possible. Dowan to take any chances for this last month before we start ivf
Greenie,
Usually when u register for ivf, the nurse will see through your records and tel you what are the BTs you need to take, eg.. your D2, your HIV/Rubella tests etc. If they didn't, then best is, when you go down for your D2 test, check with them whether you need to do the HIV/Rubella tests as well. Like me the other time, I was given 2 forms. one for D2, one for the HIV/Rubella test. I did both on same day. So nurse said must extract more blood cos need to submit 2 blood vials for the 2 separate tests.
BTW, KKH won't call you when results are out if your results came back ok. They'll call you only if something is wrong. And hence, don't expect them to call you to tell you detailed results of your BT either. If you wish to find out, you can call them for follow up on your results. Or from your doctor if you're seeing your doc abt a week after the BTs.
