hopefulmummy: my hubby gave me a bath towel to cover my tummy... sometimes when i perspire, at least not so hot compared with blanket... of course on top of towel, there's still a blanket. but usually i will hve removed the blanket in the middle of the nite cos it get too hot most of the times!
TTCing, i did my ivf with NUH, Prof Wong.
So my D&C was done by him too so was my review after the procedure.
I think the pill was for 3 weeks. I had my menses again like within a week after the last pill. SO when i was on pill, i did not bleed anymore.
It's ok, you can just ask me anything. I try to answer

karen, kkivf dun monitor our hcg once our bt shows at least 200. Not sure why though. Dr loh is good but he can be very busy so must prepare to wait. But if u see him at the private suite the waiting time is shorter, have a smooth 9 mths ahead!
TTCingBB for my FET i did accu and cut off cold drinks, try to swim once a week and wore sleepers.

Nadia, sorry to hear this news, must ask ur sis to do a mini confinement ok.
TTCingBB, no didn't take TCM regularly. in fact Dr Loh told me no TCM when i start my hormone pills (i am on medicated FET) but when my lining didn't grew, i was desparate and took TCM during the 1 week. before my ET. Yes, accu at Dr Zou and no TCM during 2ww.

TTCing BB : They are ok. They are just the same as the normal food you get minus the pesticides. I cook the same way as I would with the normal. I get organic meat and vegetables, boil soup with them also. Not too bad. For TCM. I'm with Ms Jin of Raffles chinese medicine. Usually no medication once cycle start, but will have accupunture during the 2ww, but cant rem how frequent already, need to check with my TCM.

Congrats Karen!!
PinkF: I thought AF had stopped 2 days ago. But yesterday started to bleed fresh blood again. Weird. Cos usually by this time I should b spotting some brown, no longer red. What about you?

Hi iloveshoes,
Ya. I know that FET is the logical progression. I am checking with my gynae this week on my options.
Me too! Work is stressful for me. I have urgent issues to deal with on ad-hoc basis on top of my usual work. I used to end up working late all the time; now I'm trying to take it easy, but it's not easy....To be stressfree is tough for me right now...
so I'm not confident about striking so easily in the next cycle.
11 times?! Wow! I don't think I'm so strong to go through that so many times. haiz!

Hi Skies,
my ovulation is not so good... that's why I ended up with IVF. Maybe it's also a result of stressful live.
So, looks like gynae might propose medicated.
Is FET 100% claimable from medisave or only the actual procedure. I read that FET should use cash so that the next IVF can use medisave.
Hi Gan, yes. private. I've been with my gynae for quite a while already; so most likely I will stick with her as she knows my history..
but looks like the difference in cost is quite significant.
Can they transfer frozen embryos between hospital?

Hi iloveshoes,
exactly. Some people can just get pregnant anytime they want...envy...
Ladies, by the way..about immunocal;
I found another type of bioactive whey protein.. ImmunoPro Rx by Well Wisdom ...GMO free...
so far no complain about the taste...
I'm still researching; tempted to buy that and try...

TTCing, I had a naturally MC this time round for my fresh cycle;
My hcg dropped on my 2nd blood test and I stopped all the medication and support; 3 days later the AF come.
my AF is slightly heavier than usual with more clots; so more cramps; it stopped after 8 days; My usual AF is 7 days; so far no sudden AF again leh; but my AF was red on Day 7 suddenly (usually by day 4 it will be brown); which is not normal but it was very light.

elmoline, usually pple use medisave for fresh due to higher cost compared to FET. I m not sure if BFP from FET can we ask to claim from medisave later, maybe u can check with ur doc.
Yes, embbies can be transferred between hospitals but u need to pay a fee for the transfer. Hmmm but kkivf and private abit diff so u must see ur comfort level. E.g. The scans, consultation abt scan results are not with ur chosen gynae but with doc on duty, sonographer. ur chosen gynae will only do the ET for u for FET.

Elmoline, I paid cash for my soiui initially. When my cycle was converted to IVF, I also switched to medisave immediately. So whatever cash I have used for my soiui have been put up for reimbursement. According to the cashier, rani at kkivf, Cpf board will take some two to three months to reimburse me back. Also according to rani, we have up to one year to seek for reimbursement through medisave whether bfp or bfn.

Miracle - I only had 2 BT (D3 & D21) then HSG (check if tubes blocked) then no more liao. Didn't have scan.
I didn't see Dr Loh since that time I complained abt clinic D & got see him on 20 Jan.
Nxt time i see him is ER & ET date at kkivf. Nvr been to TPS, think there mostly for those who BFP & transfer there to see him. But if still undergoing ivf & etc .. kkivf would be the place.
Ultimately he is 1 person only ... even at TPS if he is occupied will have to wait for long time
