SuSaN, Thanks for the info.
tokkie, I was definitely upset when I can't do my fresh cycle too. Hmm..if ur embabies are developing well, why don't you consider blast ?

Day : Im not confident for them to develop to blast, besides the chances of high wastage of embbies is very high for blast culture... anyway there's 2 sch of thots... 1 blast bfp higher, the other thinks womb is the best incubator compared to lab so will choose early transfer...

tokkie,Ok!..Have a good night rest and update us on your ET.
Fi, I'm starting to feel slightly bloated only. Tummy harder definitely. U wouldn't believe what I've eaten today.
Breakfast - chicken essence, then an hr later, 4 egg whites + 2 yolks
Lunch - sliced fish mee sua
4pm - 1 stick fish ball, 1 stick prawn (from Old Chang Kee)
Half an hour later - hungry again. Ended up sharing Indian food with HB. Curried chick peas, curry mutton, potato masala and poori.
6.30pm - 1 cup of Ensure
10pm - Salmon teriyaki rice
And later, I'm sure I'm going to have to drink Milo with egg whites again.

Been reading up on TCM/accupuncture & IVF. Regret not going for accu to make better eggs & warriors for my fresh cycle :S
Ladies who are going for accu, how often and which days of the cycle do u visit the accu clinic?

Syrah, what big appetite you have!! I now in lucrin stage and appetite reduce le.. breakfast eat 1 slice of wholemeal bread full liao. Hopefully after u/s and bt next fri can start puregon and appetite can goes back normal. Btw, anyone ever request for time chit with kkivf?
mina/ flowers,
I know. I myself am shocked by how much I'm eating. I lost weight after my laparoscopy end May and finally succeeded in going back to usual wt and added 1 kg. Then after just 1 night of warding, Wt dropped immediately again. During Lucrin, appetite was normal. But this reaction to puregon is like crazy. Seems like body is making up for weight loss.
By time chit u mean timeline? I did request when I collected Lucrin. The nurses drafted the entire time line on a piece of blank paper for me from start of ocp to expected ER/ET.

yen: dun tink angela will be in on Monday right?
Sesame -- How's your 1st day of jab? U try to relax ok... duno what upsets u last night, but since we all embark on this same journey, u are not alone. Other than your hb, family, we are here to support each other. I know your feeling, but we need to forge on and look forward to our BFPs.... Constant reminders to each other will be a form of encouragement. Same here, by and large, I know how to get through this, but I certainly look to all the ladies here for strength and support! Gambateh, Jia you!!
Flowers- Thanks! Yah, i need to relax. Every morning recently is a "battling" moment where i try to feel if i bfp.... then when i don't feel much, i start to feel kinda depressed. And then I need to distract myself by doing other things.

Faith - I am still halfway thru my 2ww. It's really agonising, I'm sure u know what I mean. Last night, i had this bad pain in my stomach, not sure cramps, or stomach too bloated or lotsa wind feeling. And then, keep tossing and turning. Then, this morning woke up and wonder if I will bfp. M starting to get a bit worried and not sure what to do now. Sigh....
Could u eat well during your 2ww? What kinda bloated feeling do you have?
Really envy u and Kitin -- Bfp so fast
Can spread more babydust to me?

Yawnz. feeling so tired today, and I finally gave up and have a cuppa. >.<
minako, i usually request time time chit if my company require to see, but that is usually for doc's appt. din take any for u/s though.
goofie, be more positive! Keep a positive mind and your body will be in a better incubator.. ^^"
Kitin, congratz! Throw ccean loads of bbdust in here!
Anyway how long after we stop ocp Af will come?
Sesame, dun stress urself with too much what ifs and -ve tots. Just follow the motion for time being. I find it easier for me when i do that.

Summer, hv u seen dr Cheng at TFC already ?
There is no need to book appointment to start ivf. Once u have seen him, tell him your intention on when u ready to start and he will advise you the details accordingly.

day> No. I hv not seen Dr Cheng yet. Btw, am also doing acu at Thomson Chinese Medicine since Aug. Not sure want to change to Dr Zou or not since most of the sister here go there. The reason I choose TMC is the conveniency. Heard that before ER & after ET need to do acu.

hi kitin/faith, care to share what did you ladies did for prep that eventually leads to BFP? hehehe...so can make me BFP soon too...praying hard hard
summer, if you are already with a tcm doc, i would suggest stick with it if you have no issues with the doc. the doc knows your history and also like u said, its convenient.
if you dont live near amk, the last thing you want is the stress and time spent and effort to travel there, wait and travel home.
you need to have a strong body and not get tired.
if going to dr zou is going to give u more stress, then no point, right?

Hi Hoping, I can share with you what i took but not sure is it the reason for me to bfp. I took Vit C, folic acid and immunocal. I went once for acupunture but can't stand the pain so never continue. Throughout the whole ivf process, i try to make myself happy always think that im getting nearer to my baby. By the way have you start your ivf treatment. Baby dusts to you!!!!

gals, during my stimulation phase, i was afraid my lining would become too thick too fast, so Angela advised me against soya bean products.
Hope this helps!
