<font color="aa00aa">Rita, order tingkat? Or delivery? or precook and freeze before hand?

Lots of solutions...just need to be slightly creative.

Else have a trusted friend come over and deliver food once a day?</font>

Hi rita
Hi janice,
I jus watched friends all over again... was as nice as i remembered... Haha...
I watch online shows from morning till nite, i dun have that slow streaming problem.... Prob becos, when i not ard i dun off the com... Jus let it buff all the way.... then anytime i wanna watch jus watch, cos is kept in my com memory... My tv is always connect to the com.

Think the device janice is talking abt cost 200plus onwards... Called Media player something like that... My gfs have them, and is really good to use...
 
Hi Sticky!

Thanks for the tips! So exactly when will the OHSS starts? If need to drink 100+ before ER that means OHSS will occur after ER?
 
Congrats to nip, Dan, Sarah on ur bfp news. So happy for you.

Hi ladies, which dept in OG can i get immunocal from? I remembered during the IVF counselling, the nurse told me i might prob to OHSS base on my blood test. At which stage shld I need to start taking immunocal and egg white? During ER and ET stage?
 
stickybfp, my colleague told me her dh bought $100+... i used to attached my com to tv but need to move up and down to play the shows hehe... my colleague said not bad, somemore using remote control de, so i thot of buying one so i wun feel bored at home during my 2ww...
 
lynn, many sisters here order from Fung&amp;Goh because they do delivery for 2 boxes. You can also get it @ OG, with member you get 5% discount. Per box $100. But I just bought immunocal from pharmacy at the hospital, should be the same.

faithbb, I remember during fresh cycle we need to go for progestrone bt. Are you schedule for it? Or just hcg bt after 17days?

Yesterday was 1st time Dr Zou actually chat with me. I told her I keep getting migraine recently &amp; she said my pulse shows I'm having stress.

I was worried if I dun ovulate tis mth then need to postpone fet till after cny. She told me just go for scan with 'ping chang xin' if really no ovulate this mth then postpone lor, good news are worth the wait! I feel so calm after hearing it :p
 
<font color="aa00aa">Minako - Dr Zou is really very comforting - I remember how she talk to me during my first cycle too - it helped a lot for sure</font>
 
Leor &amp; shoes, you know everytime I envy ladies who can chat with her for so long @ consultation rm. Everytime i go, she must ask for my name, then i show her my bbt chart, read pulse then go for acu. This is 1st time we ever chat for over 5mins.

She told me if i too stress then no ovulate, the doc sure say take pregnyl jab. If this is the case, abort the cycle. Its always better to let own body control hormones rather than medication to induce. Since I'm doing natural fet, I only need to pay for u/s. So even if abort, not much money wasted.

Then she even went on &amp; show me the email her son sent to her regarding details about his new job in HKG. Her son is going to work as trader.
 
hi lynn
Hi serene
me did a fresh dec cycle... In that time i got severe ohss...before er i pump myself with 5egg whites faithfully everyday plus immunocal twice a day... May sound alot and too much for some gals... But i had a miracle recovery after er... So do consider my advice... After er i took 10 egg whites... 3 times immunocal for 3 days... Plus 100plus 1 big bottle for 3days...

Cos ohss cos ur ovaries to expand so big, i got terrible backache before er... And feel very xin ku... After er is worst, the condition kicks in after er and can last more than a week...
i wasnt allowed to do et becos of ohss... Imagine my disappointment,.. On 3rd day after er, my blood test on e2 drop to normal... The nurse complimented that she had never seen such fast recovery... Ya, see wat i pump in my stomach lor... after eating all those, my stomach no space for normal food...
I give credit to the right food i eat from the start of my cycle... It helps in my ohss...
 
<font color="aa00aa">Minako, I chat with her only cos I used to see her cousin Dr Zou la ... and also cos she's from Shanghai ma...so chitty chat lor

Yeah, her son is very smart. I think they really made well of their move to SG as a family</font>
 
StickyBFP: Wah! how u finish 10 egg whites a day? U took it seperately or one shot a day? Am very 'Pei fu' you lor.
