Hi Pari,
not to worry. Like you said implantation is really a mystery. No body knows when the embryo gets implanted while we have only rough theories. We can only try all the odds to improve our general health and look forward to our cycle. We will all difinitely strike at some point. Best wishes

Hi ladies, wao..everybody is in August cycle. Where is my July cycle buddy?
WYK,
I am in credit. Lots of urgent proposals to read. My boss not the understanding type. If I leave early (say 6:30) which happens once in a blue moon, he will ask me whether I am on half day. quite sacarstic. But, for this time, he was pretty nice. don't really know what he thinks.
my BT is next Friday...another long week ahead. When I first started the first 2ww, I wondered how I could ever survive. It felt so awkard to be at home, resting and waiting for the time to move! luckily, have this forum and support of all the sisters here..and of course, Serene (who will be abandoning me next week to go back to her stressful work!), I also spent a lot of time taking care of my daughter too as she was sick..so did not do much bed rest the past 2 days...
So, I am half way through the 2ww! Can't feel a thing. Trying to be positive, especially with all the inspiring stories but worried at the same time.
Had my last pregnyl jab this morning. Starting to feel backache now. don't know why. hope that's not a bad sign that my AF is coming. How was your embryo quality?

How long is usually your cycle? Crossing fingers and toes for you!

hi juju,
don't worry, production will seems little now and don't get stress by looking at the amount you pump out. As latch and pump is quite different. Some babies will want milk every hour, as if they are still hungry. This is the growth sput stage, do endure with it. Try to latch lying down, then you can close your eyes and rest.

Hi ladies,
I went to the clinic to collect my BT report. It reads: Beta-HCG 409.5
How? is it a normal reading or low? As compared to Chameleon one is very low leh...
tnt, u said you were BFP but HCG dropped after 1 week? what happened? and wat was your reading then?

Dream, hv sent FB invite to u. Looking fwd to hear back fr u. Yeah, SGP male boss r so macho. Dun know if I can adjust back if one day we return. Now dat yr gal is better, maybe shld consecrate some time 4 yrself. Just 2 re-assure you that I never did any bedrest during 2ww. Started going out 4 short walks + makan + grocery shopping e next day after ET, on alternate days. Movements r good as it improves blood circulation in e womb, according 2 e nurse. I had only 4 matured eggs retrieved, 3 got fertilised but 1 incorrectly, and therefore oni 2 put back. The 2 which were put back are of Grade 2, with Grade 1 being e top-quality. As they say u oni need 1 good embryo to work! And I'm glad it has worked for me.
Serene, check this website out. it's about BetaHCG

Ladies,
Thanks. Hope her fever won't come back tonight!
Serene,
Your beta is good. not to worry, you are well above average. Wondering now why you only had a faint line on wednesday. Otherwise, may be you should call KK and see whether you need any jab to support your pregnancy (before you start work on Monday). BTW, we are still waiting for your babydust!!!
TNT
I think my dosage quite similar to Serene for pregnyl. On the box, it is written 5000 but there is only 3 ml in each syringe and can't jab all (because some medicine stuck there). The nurse prepared 3 syringes for us! When are you planning to test again?
WYK
Ok, will log into FB. Haven't done anything yet.

Hello Gals
Today, purposely took half day leave to see Dr Zou. First time seeing her. Have a good impression on her. She talks alot and telling me about Dr Loh recommending patients to her. Went for accupuncture and took some medicine, both costs S$65. Is that expensive? Make reservation next sat to see her again.
Serene and Chameleon
Congrats both of u. Take extra care during your 1st trimester pregnancy
TNT
Tahan for another few days and spread good news to us
BB
I'm tinking of applying AL instead of using HL bcos my boss will definitely ask y taking so long HL. Wat problem to my health which I dun wish to tell her. Hope by then, requesting her approval to work at home.

Serene,
No need to wait for tuesday! your results is positive! I have 2 tests at home...still wondering whether I should try earlier or just wait for BT. anyway, still early to decide. I bought the cheapest one from Guardian..hope they work as well. I am also the worried type...as nurse said can only test 6 days after pregnyl, I don't think I will dare to do it earlier...you tried after 2 days of Pregnyl,, right? I think my dose about the same as you. Don't really know.
What time your BT? You need to take time off from work?
TNT
Better go and check. You may need support. Dont delay further. Apart from Pregnyl, I also have the pessaries (twice daily) and progynova (two pills per day to take at the same time than the pessary), I suddenly feel backache. I hope AF not coming. or it could be I stayed too much in bed today or stayed too long last night to sponge my girl.
This 2ww is really terrilble. Trying to read al signs! worried...

juju,
really brave to start trying on day 8. You were also on pregnyl?
Ladies,
I don't even dare to take my temperatures...never took before so how to compare? Need to take in the morning or at any time during the day? WIll aircon affect the temperature? while writing this, I think it is a silly question since my daughter's fever keeps going up at night!!! silly of me
but I keep it here for you to have a good laugh...

Hi WK,
just added you in facebook..you know wat, my birthday is just 1-day after you
Glad to hear everything is ok for you and bb.
Hi Mel,
your boys look wonderful!
Hi Serene and Chameleon,
Congrats! Serene, your HCG is good, dont worry.
Hi TnT,
wow, your temp before Ovulation is quite high leh.. hmm, do you test OPK during ovulation? If you tested postive for Ovulation, then most likely you are able to know your current dpo. Do you take temp from cd1 until now? then u can also know your dpo.. Its easier to deduce from there if have already over dpo14. Tracking based on when next AF will report is not accurate because the follicle phase for each cycle may differ due to reasons. Some pple may delay their ovulation due to medications or any other factors , this could lead to the delay of AF.
