Hi humbug,
oh got 2 dogs, cocker spaniel mum and pup. Oh i intend to keep it a secret abt my ivf process and even told my hb tat if i successful also dun let her know so soon.. cos long long history. heehee my mum-in-law got 3 sons, my hb is the youngest and she favours her eldest son and daughter-in-law the most. She has been pestering them over 9yrs to have a bb, of cos they ignored her cos they are both very happy with their current lifestyle and don't intend to have kids. And till date, she has no granchild and is always drooling when she looks at her friend's granchildren. Didn't want her to know so much, if not later she come and pester me...i'll be very stressful whether blood test result positive or not.. Even when I went to see Dr Zou, she also want to interfere keep pestering me to see the hougang sinseh instead eventho I told her i'm very comfortable with Dr Zou. Beitahan..She can be very nice sometimes but on the otherhand likes to force her view on others which i don't like.

Develyn,
U Queen of Cruises. Hehehe ... Ya man ... super busy with work now that closing of FY just passed, and moving into new FY. Plus preparaing for my handover for my end-Apr departure. Hardly a breather ... that's why didn't write in the forum for quite a while now. So hard to catch up with everyone's progress! I'll probably be starting in end-Apr lah .. expecting AF to report around 10-12April. So Day 21 should hit abt end of the mth ...
When is yours starting exactly?
Zaza,
Enjoy your hols and may you in be tip-top condition when you come back for the start of your ivf
LYn,
Yeps, am very excited to start. Today is already April.. I'm just counting down! Hope nothing screws up lah. I keep hvg this fear that the KKH nurse will tell me "I cannot find your name in the April slot". I'll throw a royal fit then. Haha!
TnT,
Hvn't seen you online for a while now since your +ve pregnancy test leh. Hehe ... anyways, hope you're coping well and looking after yourself good aye

humbug, poor thing. That day my hubby sent me to the 24 hours clinic when I have a very painful cramp, the doc took my BT also super painful. Normally BT taken by experience nurses no pain and no blood after needle removed. But my arm bleed and blue black after the BT. At least angeline is there to guide her along. Imagine no body around to guide her when she is doing the BT! Think I will faint!
All of us here are very brave leh as we have to go through all the pains. Hang on.. we are nearer and nearer to the date of confirmation!

Tany, I am sorry for your loss, here's {{{hugs}}}.. Stay positive, this is what you need now, sure your baby in heaven is watching over you to make sure he has siblings soon! I watched the program on quintuplets last weekend, and I cried for the 2 bbs they lost before the couple had their quins.. We will get emotional as we walk this path, but all will be fine dear!! {{{hugs}}}

Yongwei, I am sure your doc has followed your body requirements to prescribe the drugs to you. I must check my record to see if I still hv the dosage for Duphaston.. but I vaguely remember my Folic Acid is more (probably bcos I have Thalassemia) and the Proluton is just about the right dosage.. I only took 4 Proluton injections in the start of my 2nd trimester, also twice a week (Mon & Thu) for 2weeks only.
Also, I reacted to Duphaston, I got hungry all the time and had to visit toilet after meal.

Yongwei, I only have Duphaston and Folic Acid from doc, and I had my (GNC) Prenatal Multi-vit. Then I started Krill Oil(Like fish oil but more potent and won't cause burping of fishy breath) from 8weeks gestation. I only had to have the proluton bcos of threaten abortion at beginning of 2nd trimester.

<faint> Agree with you, I'd drew blood before so many times, but this time is really most painful. She was alone when she did it, so I totally unaware she's new.. until she went out get another nurse in to draw another one for me. Mole twin twin kana draw blood for both arm. Really like guinea pig lor..
Chris
Tks for encouragement
Kimberly
So coincident, I am also a Thalassemia carrier.. Dr Zou told me I'm 贫血, and this will affect implantation. I already had twice failure, so worried now
Did you do anything special to 补血?

Yongwei, yes, minor then can grow until adult mah, if not we will 1. die at infant stage, or 2. constance blood transfusion to sustain life..
Libby,
I also heard Red dates and dang shen is good for blood circulation, but don;t take more than 10 or 20 red dates per day or it'll be heaty.
Doc prolong my folic acid consumption to almost end of 2nd trimester cos the blood cells are smaller so will need to boost the number so that the O2 carried to bb is sufficient..
Ya, so long as hubby doesn't have is safe, or there'll be 20% chance of bb being Major Thalassemic which requires constance blood transfusion to sustain life or what I said before.. My cousin's 2nd kid was major Thal, and died after he was born, very very sad, affected them so much now they settle to having just one kid.

Hi Libby,
i was at ivf center at 8.30am..i saw a few couples, and also a few singles, not sure which is you
. I was wearing green top.
But about 8.40am, i was asked to wait at clinic D. i waited all the way till 11.15am to see Dr Loh. It was a long wait as Dr Loh is performing a c-sect..!
Oh, that malay girl. i think i know which one.. Your incident sound quite scary to me.. But how was your BT? have you already know your results already? Or you need to wait for them to call you??
