soon to be,
My MS is unpredictable. I have good days but not many.
I can take noodle better than rice. This morning while brushing my teeth, I puked like merlion. Chialat man..
Eh when you reach 2nd trimester doesn't mean that MS will suddenly stop lei. My last one lasted for 4 months.
Am going to DS counselling next week then screening in Dec.

hazel, the 'first line of defence' is just the First Tri Screening..a combination of blood test and scan. This screen is an indicator, not a test in itself. ONLY if they find the results are poor, then the amniocentesis. i dont think amnio is common or taken lightly since it is an invasive procedure.
hazel..cos the procedure is quite ex..for me it's more than $400 for twins. Also to prepare you that the screening are not 100%, and in case of the worst case scenario, if your score is 1 in 300 chance or less, then you must make the difficult choice of doing amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling, both of which carry a small risk.
i'm in my mid-30s..

spiffy, at times, these screening not accurate one. my ex-colleauge pregnant with twins that, ivf fresh cycle. dr loh said 1 of the twin high chance to be DS. ask her if she wan to do amnio test. she dun wan to do as her pregnnacy was unstable through out n she dun wan to lose both babies.
came out, both are not DS.

Spiffy, yes. =) I am excited about starting stage 2 because 1 step closer to ER and ET.
Will start my gonalf injection on Friday, but not sure whether my response will be good with gonalf.
Hazel, i did't take everyday, but will take everyday when I start the gonalf Friday. I think egg white helps. The last time during SO-IUI, i take 2 egg white every day during the injection.

Hazel,
think i din post my question well.
i did my 1st cycle in sept and BFN.
i received my total bill from KK last week when I called them to check what the amt I need to pay after deducting the govt grant & medisave, the billing clerk told me I don't need to pay any cash.
I was kind of surprise but I din probe any further. Therefore I wonder if any ladies if had the same experience.

hazel apparently even if your blood test and nuchal scan are good, the age factor (>35) can pull your score down to 1 in 300 or less. Thus i wonder how accurate this all is!?
i dont know what the national average is, but i guess if 300 is taken to be the cut off, it must be much higher.

gan, my gf told me once on gonal-f, 2 egg whites are not enough. she asked me to up to 4.
she has 20 eggs retrieved each time, she did 2 fresh cycles & have 1 kid each. n she nv get serious OHSS at all.. she also told me to avoid chicken.. coz chicken lots of hormones.
i hv not taken any chicken since i started on lucrin

catherine, same same..just the first couple of procedures or meds i had to pay, after that it is deducted from medisave automatically, and they work the govt co-payment into it too. The invoices were just FYI. Was shocked to find out the real cost of the Puregon..eek! Luckily i didn't have to pay cash for that.

muski, pls increase your egg white intake to 4 a day. i got whey protein powder at home. but am taking egg white first coz i understand that is better.
gan, the chicken thing i confirmed with my beautican who are into health food. last sunday, she told me, if a girl takes lots of chicken, coz chickens are high hormones level, she will reach puberty at an earlier age, matured faster also n looks older than her age also
anyway, i just listen to my friend. coz 3x - 2 fresh cycles n 1 FET, she strike all...
