stickybfp, i was told to chk for thalassemia b4 i ttc. Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder. If both parents hv that or r carriers of the genes, bb will usually get it n can be quite serious. But if only 1 parent has it, usually there is a 50% chance that baby will be carrier with no symptoms at all.
So don't worry so much yah. Ur DH might be clear.

don't think I suffering from ohss bah. my aches is those on off, not those that I need to wriggle on bed de. So still bearable just that I can't stand for too long, else the aches will just kept on reminding me to rest.
so late where to get zhu chang fen? today I surrender le. couldn't stomach the eggwhites, so took 2 packets of immunocal instead. Maybe I go take in other forms lah...half-boiled ones can't stomach le. =)
So if you go tml, then thurs need to go again ah. Hope your follicles and lining will be swee swee then you won't be so worried le.</font>

Hi Joanne, just want to let you know I went back to work after SIS last time. Should be fine. You will not know the result on the spot. Dr Loh will review with you when the report is out. Do remember to fix an appointment for that. I Kaisu the last time. I asked how's the result after SIS. The doctor can roughly tell you what is going on but may not be final result yet.

but usually they have to check again before triggering off. Unless you clear by tml. Else they will probably get you back on thurs or every other day to check. Remember to bring your puregon, in case they wanna increase or give you a last jab!</font>

Hi All, i finally found this thread!
I'm new and am preparing for IVF. Now in D22 Gynera (contraceptive pills). All of you seems to know so much. My doctor din tell me much, and i also dunno what can do, what cannot do. I hope you all can help me.
Me schdeuled to start Lucrin on D1 of next cycle, expected 14Nov. OR should be 2Dec, ET maybe 4Dec.
Is it too late to "bu" my body? Will cordyceps with black chicken soup help?
When do bloatedness start? Is it during the start of Lucrin injections?
After ET, does the doctor prescribe Bed Rest? If yes, for how long? I dunno if i should let my boss know or not leh..... i doing the OR and ET during my leave, but after that, another coll going on leave too...
After reading this thread, i feel stressed that i'm still like quite ignorant, but also relieved that i can seek help from you gals.
i still have a lot of questions, really hope someone can guide me along.

Miracle,
Didn't bring puregon or lucrin.. Thur likely come back again coz alternate days monitoring...
Ha. Mine is right side.. Small bruise but that was a week plus back le.. Hvnt subside.. Right side, d jab mark visible.
Find puregon pain less painful than lucrin when inject. Thou it gives stinging pain.
I m feeling pain at left side.. Duno hw to describe the feeling..

Sleepley, welcome to this thread. How come u can start ur lucrin on the day 1 of ur menses cycle? Maybe urs is diff protocol.
u under which clinic? For fresh cycle, dr will normally give HL from ER onwards till bt for bhcg which is abt 19 to 20 days. Dr will not ask u to bedrest for the entire 2ww. Just a guide, lots ppl will hv total bedrest for the first 2-3 days after the transfer but this is depends on individual comfort level as some sistas didn't hv full bedrest after ET n bfp. Did u go for tcm? Lots of us here did go for acupuncture but it is also depends on individual la.
Normally for Ivf patient v will try to "bu" our body three mths b4 the start of the cycle, u may want to start to "bu" ur body b4 the start of the jab now?
Sleepiey
Welcome.
Don't feel stressor ignorant.. Let's all learn together.. D sisters are great n provide valuable advise..
Have u taken cordyceps before? Do u hv a heaty body?
Iwould suggest u go light on d cordyceps as some might get sorethroat or fal sick which u do not WANs risk st this critical stage. My hubb came down w fever n sorethroat right after it.
if u r on supplements , continue with it. Else u might wana start on vitamin c, folic acid.
Others to consume at ure comfort level incl coq10,royal
jelly,vit e..but they actually takes 3mths to see effect.
For bloatedness.. Depend on individual.. Some right at lucrin stage, some puregon, some er, or et. Upz your eggwhite intake n stay hydrated,2L water of any form. Oppss.. I am not drinking enff.
Alternatively u might wana take immunocal,a protein drink.
U r with KK or private? Hospitalization leave starts on er day for 14days for KK.
Hope d above helpful... Sistas pls correct on areas with sala info.. Gum sia.
Opposes... I m late for my appt.. Such heavy rains

StickBFP, even if your blood disorder is cfm, u can still proceed w IVF rite? I oso hv some immunity disorder... Dr Loh said my body tends to reject embies... So to b frank, I'm really really trying to stay +ve during 2ww... I dun put in high hopes... Even if bfp, I can't b too happy too... Cos my other Dr said I'm at risk of losing bb throughout whole pregnancy, unlike others who r safe after 1st tri... Trying so hard for a bb for many yrs is indeed stressful n sad, I can only leave it to fate n learn frm e nice sistas here how to max my chance... Tks all 4 advice so far... Really appreciate it...

Ceraine, r u w kkh? Toking abt their nurses, I was a little pissed... Once I saw one of their nurses at a mall.. She recognized me n i believe she told her family I'm one of e patients... Cos suddenly e whole family turned n stared at me as if I'm an alien gg up e escalator... Juz felt dat she dun hv to tell them abt it cos it shld b confidential... Luckily none of her family mbrs look familiar... If any of them noes my family, then jia lat lor... Cos my family dunno I do ivf n I've been giving excuses for nt gg hm for dinner...
