Dear ladies,
came back from my first scan and appointment. I am having singleton, not twins.
Very happy already, though thought maybe twins.
Saw the beating of the heart of my baby from the screen, so cute! Baby is 8mm long now, haha! so tiny but the heart is beating strongly now.
I also just changed to private suite with my doc for my next appointment onwards, only around $10 more, but shorter waiting time and all scans and tests will be done by my doc personally then, the place is more cosy too. So I think better to switch lor.
I would like to ask ladies who know what do we do with our frozen embryos when the one year of storing is due. Do we need to call the hospital to extend the freezing or will they call us to check if we want to continue with the storing? Thanks!

hopfully,
my next scan will be on the 24 Oct, in another 2 weeks plus.
I choosed to have daily progesterone injections after ET. So need to go KKH everyday for injection during the 2WW. I tested hpt on 14dpt and asked for an earlier BT on 15dpt as the scheduled BT was 17dpt.
Yes, I also feel very happy to see many graduating here.
You will be one very soon. Stay positive and be hopeful always. Wish the very best too!

Bliss,
Sorry to ask so much question, but just wondering if we will have a choice whether to take the daily injection or the pill insert? Going for my ET tomorrow. If everything is smooth and successful, my BT should be on 24 Oct.. Heeheee
ok i shall stay positive, positive & positive. Thanks for ur words, it just make me braver.

Mel,
yes for sure, your babies will have very strong heartbeat!
Hopfully,
what a coincidence to be on the same date.
Hope will hear good news from you that day!
No problem for the questions. Yes, we will be asked to choose either the daily injections or the inserts when the eggs extracted was 15(cant remember is 10 or 15) or more. If lesser, I think the hospital will just give pregynl injections every few days.

Huh? Oh dear.. but i drink TCM at about 8am, eat carrot during lunch about 1pm, you think will affect absorption still?
Ladies, you know whether apples are ok to eat now? As in are apples cooling? And i notice eat chicken will bring up cough hor? Everytime eat chicken, i get itchy throat, hm.. or am i imagining?

akachan,
i have been avoiding carrot ever since i start taking chinese medicine. I donno whether the timing will affect anot.
i took apple everyday to aavoid constipatiion. Apple shouldn't be cooling don worry. If chicken is making you cough better stop taking as u tend to use your tummy strength.

Mel,
Think positive. I am sure your little one will continue growing in you and that you will have a smooth 9 mths journey!
Blesswbb,
Thank you! I am so anxious now waiting for the news tomorrow. will keep you gals updated!
akachan,
I will post the website of cooling and heaty foods here. I am searching for it now on DH's laptop coz my home lappie is sent for servicing, Watch out for my post! Apples are ok to eat. Watermelon (very cooling), pineapple, orange (acidic). Have you tried brazil nuts that the ladies here are talking about? I just bought it yesterday and started munching it since yesterday and will do so during 2ww. Not sure if it will really help in implantation, but no harm trying! Will look for the website now.

akachan,
This article is on cooling and warming food, but not too sure if this applies to us who are trying to get preggie. But at least a whole lot useful in knowing what's cooling and warm food. Comments if any if you find the article is misleading or anything coz I am relatively new to what's cooling food, ya!

Mel,
Twins!Twins! Congrats! So happy for you! Envying you. I used to like Sanyo Little Twin Star when I was a little girl. How I wish I can have a KiKi and Lala! But if only one is also ok. He/she will still be my precious darling. Catching your baby dust again! Enjoy your scan on Fri. You’ll sure see the beautiful blinking heartbeats. Maybe 3? I think Dr Paul was very confidence that day when he did your ET. That’s why he even gave names for them right?
Bliss,
Congrats to you too! Healthy and strong heartbeats! Did you tear when you see the blinking on the screen?
Faith,
Read that your gynae is Dr LC Cheng from TFC. Can I know wat is your protocol? I heard from my Dr E Chua that Dr Cheng is using a different set of protocol from KK. Were you on Lucrin than Gonal-F?

Mystyy,
Thanks for the link. Very interesting. Added to my bookmarks.
Akachan,
Don't worry, you can add abit of ginger to balance the dish when you are preparing "Cold" Vegetable dish. Broccoli is also high in Folic acid.
Like wat the webpage state, the way the food is prepared also affect.
Just eat everything in moderation.
