I like the Berry flavour.. Should not take green tea cause tea for caffine content.. I think I will stick to the berry one. No lah I hardly snack after dinner so I drink after dinner..
I will alternate the days for the Blackmore for about 2 weeks then slowly increase to daily.. the BU quite strong.. staring to feel heaty...

Hi,
I have been a silent reader of this thread for the past few weeks.. My hb & I are thinking of going through IVF coz of hb's sperm quality.
I have read some posts from you all.. Isit a muz to take 2 weeks HL?? Anything I have to prepare other than eating folic acid (for me) and vitamins (for hb)??

Hi skies, u r gv 2ww HL to ur own benefits ie to rest to maximize chance. U can start folic acid as for men can take gnc megaman or any other brands...
Dear babygalore, i was tearing when u mention abt ur last mc EDD same as ur newphew; and yet u can only suffer in slience. I respect u very much coz like i say i wont go to bb shower and i think it goes the same for relative for myself coz i feels that we r already gtg thru alot of emotions setbacks and its juz so unfair for us to be pretend to be happy for others and yet we r actually bleeding inside. I m not so noble....

babygalore,
that's is really a very sad story.... i guess the woman is not seeking revenge but rather is mentally unsound that she dunno wat she's doing... maybe she couldn't accept the truth abt her mc at all...

Liz,
Don't feel sad. It is not cause of the ivf your friends dun meet you. Guess, everyone got things to do and being in Singapore makes one a very busy person and really hardly have any time for anything. Maybe cause you are completely resting that is why suddenly you felt lonely and there is a lot of time to spare. Just read some books, watch some videos, free call a few friends for short chat and you will be fine
If not play some games or post in forum lor hehe

thanks. i'm ok lah.. no lah.. it's not because of the IVF. just disappointed cause very long time frens liaoz.. not expecting to meet up or anything but sometimes a short sms will do.. guess i'm just tired of making the effort and also tired of their insensitivity sometimes.
anyway, luckily not all my frens are like that..

Hi Gloria,
I can understand how irritable it is to have infections visiting so often. I used to have it many times a year.
I would like to share with you what Dr Zou taught me. She asked me only to wear cotton panties when out. When at home or during sleep, she asked me not to wear any panties except boxer short for ventilation.
True enough, infection improves a lot and I can't even remember the last time I had it. Do give it a try.

Hi Lyn,
Heard a piece of good news last evening at Dr Zou. One of her patient on DHEA is BPF....although she warned that reaction may be diff for diff people, it is still an encouragement for me and the ladies that are on DHEA!!!
Hi Haze,
I think there is a speed delivery within a week but U will have to pay a bit more. I remembered I selected the 2weeks option since I already have 1 bottle from KK.

liz, baby, meow
its ok. don't feel sad. Your time will come. I think only people who goes through ttc this way will truely appreciate what a great gift a baby is and not take them for granted. Sometimes, they don't understand the process so will say something hurtful but I'm sure they don't mean it. Its just that we may be abit sensitive due to our failures. Liz, maybe your frens rely on u, if not they like 'loose sand'..haha.
babygalore
That's a bizarre story, actually have come cross the story in the US drama 'Private Practice'. This person develop mental problems as she cld not get over her mc. So drama does happen in real life. So sad.
ladies
Regarding multi-vit, can take those without Vit A, cos from our daily food intake, we should have enough. Due to the harmful effects some brands do not include vit A at all. Vit A is ok when u not pregnant, after that need to be careful as some face cream contain vit A too.

I understand that hurtful comments are not in our list since our road to TTC is not an easy one.
I have this incident which happen at work. She is someone who actually easy to get along with. So one day, she commented about me not having my own baby and thinking that i am more concern about being slim(i am thin but not slim) that is why baby is not in my list. luckily we were at the office lounge. To shout at her means making a fool of myself in the public. I just walked away. Since then, i will try to avoid her at all cost. Coz her comment is of no basis. She does not know the process i had to go through just to get pg. I do not have to go around and tell ppl what i am doing right. i dont treat her as my best buddy toshare all these secrets with.
Anyway, i am happy now as she is no longer with me anymore

Gloria, maybe u ask ur doc to check if it is UTI or just fungus infection. for me, my symptoms were purely itchiness and some yellow discharge. my gynae said yellowish discharge during pregnancy is normal and she gave me some cream to apply there to stop the itch. ya, avoid wearing anything tight, dress is the best...

Hi liz, ya i understand wat u mean i guess sometimes u r juz so sian and tired of keep organizing meet ups and sometimes u feel a short sms to stay in contact or to ask abt ur well being is really so hard to do so? Well learn to let go lor, since u r into the ivf thingy juz put urself in the top priority the rest of the things can wait....
Gloria, take yogurt and wash more often.... it really helps

su yana, i happened to me b4 too. My col she is worst talk without using her brain. There is a programme abt mum carrying twins for her daughter coz daughter had many times of m/c. When she saw the programme she told me another col that she must ask me to watch so when i back from ladies she keep emphasing to me the contents of the programme. I felt very hurt and almost wanted to shout at her but controlled coz still got to work 2gther. I thought i m being too sensitive but my the other col also felt angry abt her action. I was so sad till i came back to tell my DH abt it and also cried to me feeling so inferior coz i m actually gtg thru infertility.. But after u think back we r facing infertility and thats the facts no point taking these insensitive ppl comments and dun let these ppl bring us down. Its our life afterall..
Dear Lyn, Su yana & Liz
It is really no point getting angry with brainless ppl who never went thru hardships like us..
whenever friends brag about their children, i will normally tell them, i prefer to travel around the world without having to worry for my kids.
Then i will tell their children, faster grow up so you can bring your mum to travel around the world!! haha...Its a sarcastic joke i know...

Hi Cdah
Don't worry so much in 2WW. Any symtoms could also mean due to injections that we are having. Relax and be brave to receive whatever outcome.
BFP to you..

Fandz,
I also did the same as you when i encounter those insensitive remarks from such people and normally i will add another is tat i really love my weekend where i can laze around and have my beauty sleep.It always works to shut them up and now they never pass such remarks when i am around
.
Actually i have also had one incident just happened during my 1st ivf cycle, a close fren of mine rang me up and told me that she's preg for the 3rd child which was unplanned. She asked me." What should I do? Shall i abort?" She is aware i am going thru ivf after ttc-ing for almost 8 yrs! I told her frankly," y dun u carry her to full term and let me adopt once u give birth so i can save my money for ivf." Then she realised she had passed a very insensitve remarks and apologised.
