Hi Ladies,
DH is quite concern about producing sperm on ER day.. He fears that producing sample in the hospital will stress him out and in turn will result in really bad quality.
Will it be in one of the rooms in IVF clinic?
If produce at home, sure cannot make it to hospital within an hour due to morning jam... Then how? produce in car? LOL hahaha.. he stress just thinking about it liao..

Hazel,
We staying in YewTee.. Normal off peak we take about 40mins to reach. Once we took an hr plus from home to KK coz of the morning jam.
Here, the jam starts as early as 6.45am at both KJE(Tuas) and KJE(BKE).. go by either way oso will get stuck in slow traffic. If want to avoid jam, must leave at 6.30am. Hehe.. he wake up only must work hard oredy.. hihi..

Hi oxidised,
Ya i suffered from heartburn till now... gaviscon helps. Recently there's a commercial on tv on gaviscon. u can get it from pharmacy.
I stopped taking after i was admitted to hosp. Now taking 6-7 types of medicine so not taking gaviscon n heartburn came back... sigh...

hi emma,
another alternative is sperm storage beforehand. There will be a charge for this, can check with the nurse for the cost. But it is the safest, at least if really cannot rush in time or produce fresh at the hospital, you can always use the frozen sperms for backup. If not you might waste all the previous effort of injections.

Hi Ladies, my D8 FSH test is 1106 and I have 6 'good' follicles (about 10mm) on my left ovary while my right ovary has a small one about 7mm. Is this good? I've been adjusted down to 300iu Gonal F, and still on 75 iu of Luveris.
I'm happy to see the scan of the follicles on my left ovary but now have this funny idea whether they can all be harvested... Prof was saying in his IVF talk that sometimes they can be out of reach due to the angle or something..

oxidised: i also found it odd about the sprouts, esp since they say it's best avoided raw AND cooked. i would say at the very least avoid the raw ones.
these days, i even stop having raw spring onions sprinkled on food and try to ensure everything is well-cooked.
Anyway, here's an article about:

Hi Linda,
Yeah our hcg level is about the same.
Then when will you have your scan?
Modest, btw, for FET no need to wait 2ww for the BT? if you do on 6 Oct, then yesterday only 16 oct, means only 10 days. so maybe still early?
Not sure leh. Maybe you should ask the nurse about it. So you also under NUH? When is your next Bt again?
Hi Emma, ya that time Prof also suggested for hubby to have the sperm freeze for back up in case hubby can't perform on the day. But since we did IUI before and he had no problem before, so hubby said not necessary and yeah he managed to do it within 10mins.
NUH room is better loh. can adjust the light, got blue movie and toilet too. Much better compare to TMC and CARE @ Paragon.

oxidise, u can't sleep coz of back n shoulder pain? Use heat pads or hot towels to ease the pain. Heat pads can buy from watson, osim brand. Put on ur abdomen also to ease the discomfort. Cook water with red dates n dried longan n drink, good for blood circulation. Other than that, bear with it... Know is hard, but no choice leh.
