baby, r u excited abt doing BT tmr? will u do HPT before that? i m tinking of doing HPT on friday night... mentally prepare myself before i go CARE on Sat..although i more or less can guess whats the outcome. 
hmm..i highly suspect its the med..coz other then tht, no other sypmtoms. no bloatedness, no sore breasts, oso don't feel more tired....
Gan, thanks for the info. yeah, i hv prog jab on fri, and yesterday..so maybe diarrhoea due to that... will pop carbon tablets later after my lunch...otherwise very uncomfortable.
cant really drink much coz very nausea..so i try to take sips of water...

Gan, thanks, i am keeping my fingers crossed..and praying hard tht the drop in hormones episode did not affect the outcome.
Angela told me fresh cycle, most BFP cases will hv bloated feeling. although minority still possible to BFP without the bloatedness. so we are praying tht i belong to the minority group.

yesterday went to CARE, saw this lady, already BFP..skinny and no tummy at all...then my mum was telling me, see, pregnant liao also no tummy..how come Angela keep saying i hv to have bloated tummy..hahaha.. according to my mum, each pregnancy is unique in its own way, so not everybody will feel the same symptoms.

Pandawife,
Aiyo.. Dun stress yourself further by doing research on TCM thinking u will fail. Must be positive. I tell u, Angela's reaction is always like that. Her reaction is those kind that she dun want to give you hope until your BT. Even on the day of my BT, she did a urine test for me first, then when she came in with the kit to show Ning, both of them got a very stern face and me and hubby both tot is gone case liao cos of their reaction when they are looking at the HPT. Then Angela started asking me lotsa qns like when did I last urinate etc. Then she finally show me then when I saw the + sign, I still ask her, so its pregnant or not pregnant?
So dun be negative first. U never know, like your mom say, everyone's body react a diff way.. Baby dust to you ya...

Gan,
Dont worry abt the HCG readings. HCG multiplies everyday. By Day 17, I am sure you will see higher readings. Continue to talk to your baby... If you are really worried, use clearblue to test at least once a day. You should see darker lines as it gets closer to Day 17... trust me lah...

Ladies,
Just went to see Dr for the failed IVF.
He also cannot rule out the reason for the repeated implantation failure.
Had transferred 3 Grade 1 during the last fresh cycle but fail. Still have 3 Grade 1 in one straw and the other 3 (mixture of 4,6,7 cell) in another straw.
After some further discussion, I am considering to pursue further investigation on the following before the next FET:
a) Chromosome (me + DH)- if problem lies here..means we can stop everything and consider adoption
b) Immunity (lupus + APS)- not sure what APS means but I had done this before and its negative
c) Blood clotting factors
d) Hormonal (diabetes, Thyroid and PCOS)
e) Uterus deformity
But the tests cost 1.9k...so am still considering if I should proceed...
Sigh.. need to spend so much money...sianzz...

Hi sisters... I am going to be doing my FET with TFC Dr Cheng next week. Really excited but nervous at the same time. This is my second try, first one didn't work. Just wondering what are some of the things you are doing to prepare yourself for FET? For those taking brazil nuts, how many a day are you taking and when do you start taking it?
Would like to know who else is also doing FET soon... maybe we can be cycle buddies!
Good luck to all! I hope that ALL of us will get our BFPs soon!!

Maybe u wanna have a good discussion with ur hubby and see if both of u would like to do the tests. Personally, I feel that u should do it. Although we have already spend a lot in the ivf journey, this tests will determine the reasons for the failed cycles. If u know the cause, then u can move on from there.
U still have 2 straws waiting for u. Jia you
It's not easy but dun give up
Hugs.......

Nancy,
ya.. I agree also..Dr Cheng and Samseah were also shaking head just now.. he said my eggs and fertilisation rates are all very good...
Will talk to my hubby tonight.. the chromosome test need some time to generate the result so I guess better do it fast if we are keen..
Just need to keep my fingers cross that the problem doesnt lie on our chromosomes...
Just told my boss I need a salary increment to pay for the test...heehee... he just smile..

Pandawife,
I think u be positive 1st cos her reaction is always very stern one. Even on my BT day see the HPT liao, she also say let's wait for the BT. Its not as cheerful feel as when u go and see her for the scan etc. Ning also give the same reaction. Anyway, Ning did tell me b4, they gt patients who's E2 and prog level all the way good but never strike and also have those who all the way not good but strike. So fingers crossed first k.. Dun worry too much.
What happened to u? Bloated and nausea huh? Thats why need sour plums? Drink ginger drink lor. It works for me now.Even smelling it makes me better. Just buy the sachets ones from NTUC. I bought the Gold Kili one. Not tea. Its just says Ginger drink.
The crinone hor, rem after your hubby help u, u must stand up and walk ard a while k. I think it works better. Cos for me, if I dun walk ard, I will tend to have brown discharge and chunks of it oxidised and dropping out. If I walk ard for a while, its better absorbed..
Nancy,
Ya.. She's quite popular and got lotsa advertisement.. Ya.. Very fast hor.. What abt u? When's your 1st scan? Or u already did your 1st scan? Sorry, cant really rem as there are too many ladies here and I seldom come in too. So abit blur on the status.

Nancy,
I dunno leh. Dr Tan's nurse always remind me to walk abt for a while after inserting. Cos I will have large chunks of residue left when I dun do that. Even that time when I tot I was spotting, Dr Tan told me its actually the crinone as I didnt walk abt after inserting. So it wasnt absorb properly and always falls out and when it is in contact with oxygen, it actually changes color and became brown and I tot I was spotting.
