Hi all,
I went to Dr Xia Rong of EYS at Paragon for TCM medicine and accupunture to prep my body for the IVF procedure. She gave me TCM powder that I am supposed to mix with water but after drinking for 2 days, I reacted badly and feel nauseous before even drinking it. I went back to EYS and the physican says maybe I brewed the medicine myself then not as bad. Unfortunately, I still feel like vomitting. In the end, my dad went to buy empty gelatin capsules from a traditional chinese medicine hall and my mom helped me to fill the powder into the capsules. I have to shallow 33 capsules twice a day! But no choice leh, as really want to be pregnant and IVF is so expensive.
I only have 2 best friends, 1 is single and not attached so it is very difficult to explain the emotional pain I am going thru' after months of non-success. My other best friend even better, her husband just came back from his overseas training on 1jun 2008 and she is pregnant early july! Luckily a large bulk of my friends don't have babies yet, so I don't feel extremely upset and my in-laws are very cool also, they never asked when we plan to have children at all.
Sometimes during friends gathering, I speak to couples who are of my same age or even older (31 years old) and when they said they don't plan to have kids so soon, I feel like shouting at them not to wait! Then again, my ladies friends may not have infertility prob like me. My sister-in-law has irregular menses but she managed to strike within 3 months of trying so I guess sometimes it is just fate.
BTW, anyone ate Yasmin and feel nauseous and also can't eat much during each meal? I still feel hungry but after eating maybe half a plate of food, I feel nauseous and can't eat anymore. I lost 0.5 kg in the past 5 days.
It seems that ladies in this thread are very lucky with the baby dust. I hope I can catch some too!
