Noi,
Thanks for the detail description on the program, really gives me a better idea of what to expect when program starts.
Sofia,
Thanks for filling me on possible cycle before IVF. Actually mine is similar to yours.
I agree that your friends are insensitive. How about you take this mentally of forgiving them and at the same time, don't feel obliged to adjust to anyone's schedule going ahead. In that case, you just do what you think is right and won't feel shortchanged anymore. At the same time, you will feel better yourself for forgiving them and definitely don't let this happening affect your otherwise joyous motherhood mood yeah!
Mel and Missfairlady,
Like Wensi said, please reward yourself with something as you have achieved something great by making the sacrifice to under the program. To me, that is very noble and really, not every woman is willing to undergo ivf just to have a baby. So you two deserve to reward yourself. Actually hor, when I very sad after all the mcs, I sometimes go to the toliets to cry or else cannot tahan. So when you get a chance to be alone, find ways to release the grief and after that we jia you together!

Hi sofia, sometimes its only thru certain incident or some diff time in life then u will know the "quality" of ur frds. Maybe all the while ur these 2 galfrds only treat u as company for their partying so when it comes to ur "affair" they simply feels that sleeping is more important... so sofia, actions speak louder then words and u shld know them by now lor....
Hi Fresh, very happy that you are discharged. Will pray for you, Develyn and lingling.
Hi ladies, for those who remembered 1want5bbs, this is my new nickname. well, my first attempt is -ve too. i guess i might have done a few things wrong. so sisters in your 2ww, please be good and best rest as much as possible. dun be like me, go wash toilet, go market and cook for whole family. think i carried my 5 kg cat too. sounded really stupid now but i was trying not to burden anyone to take care of me then
moving on...
hi lyn, when you said costly, how much is each consultation and scans? For the IVF process, i was fairly persuaded with Dr Sadhana (KK) and Prof Wong (NUH) that i felt like transerring doctor.
Kind of dunno where to go or what to do next.

yumyum, you finally change your nick. Please make sure that you do the following things at least 2 month before you start your next cycle.
1) Cut down on the cold drinks
2) Start your folic acid
3) If possible, dont carry too much heavy things (if you carry too much heavy things, you womb will drop down and you will have problems when you are pregnant)
4) Try to have a healthy lifestyle (no late nights, 3 balanced meal per day etc....)
During your 2ww, you must really rest well...

Babydream,
When you can eat better, go try Mushroom Park at Seah Street (at the end of the street). Expensive but very nice! I am sure your baby (ies) will like it a lot

Hi May,Maggie & other one (I remember but forget the name,sorry)
What time you got the call from IVF centre for your BT & scan result? How are your tests? When you can start Stage 2? Me curious heh. I am taking those tests like you today but didn't get any calls. Still waiting..waiting..
Ladies, is it normal? Think something must be wrong with me. So worrying.
Hi Fat Babe
Can I check with you?
Your D14 BT & Scan
D16 Start Stage 2
D23 BT & Scan for egg follices pior to ET
You under Dr Loh?
Right?
If correct, then totally different from mine and I must double confirm with Dr. Afraid the nurse may give me the wrong dates to start Stage 2 but only if I pass the tests I taken today.

Hi yumyum, i thought u r still in 2ww? Glen e consultation and u/s everytime is abt 100plus, ivf is costly. If use high dose of sitmulation whole cost can cme up to 16k-18k before medisave.
I m like u lor, dun know gtg glen e or nuh.. but not gtg back to kkh coz no matter how skillful the dr is but the system there sucks.... Prof is also one of my consideration

yumyum, you must really take good care of yourself. You intend to go for FET? I stop wearing high heels since last year. High heels is not good for your back and when you are pregnant, your back is very impt. Impt: must stop wearing high heal when you are pregnant. I actually got myself crocs shoe as it is quite comfortable.

miracle baby, i never try writing email to them before. So how is your result?
Vivi, I read from somewhere that accupucture may not works for all pple.
Vivi, I read from somewhere that accupucture may not works for all pple.
vivi, i asked him the grade during the et.
oso wrote in to ask about the rest of the gang before they are frozen. once they are thawed, sure weaker one and not very high hopes on fet already. got a reply from the nurses that usually they freeze only grade 3 and above. they din give me a report on my DH's "troopers" though.
oso dunno if the accupuncture helped or not, i am quite scared of needles actually.
sisters with prof wong, after the et, do you get to lie down and how long?

Babygalore,
The last 3 times I went, never see the other Dr liao, Dr Zou did for me.
Yumyum,Vivi
Sorry to hear that. Glad to hear u guys staying positive. Next time will work for u. I read somewhere that the success rate for IVF increases every cycle of stimulation. But I also read that FET is lower success rate. You guys have any frozen?
