pinpanter,
is it? she said that she cannot help you if you doing IVF? strange cos most of the chinese sinseh knows that we are all doing IVF and chinese herbs are supposed to support it better, Xia rong did mention that we can try naturally first but she never say that doing IVF and taking TCM got conflicts infact she think it will support one another in a way. Well, maybe you want to post in some threads about this Dr Tan and ask other sisters more about her cos I dunno her, just heard that she is quite good and thong cai is supposed to be a good clinic and not so commercialised like EYS.

nanz,
my last job similar to you, do semiconductor industry but the forecasting for semiconductor industry is killing too, lead time always not enough and stupid customers never likes to give forecast and so if forecast wrong, big problem, once customer say my production line going to be down, then panic liao. shipment is one problem too! my boss also bochap type, that's way everything bochap, all push to our to do and then if got problem, come and blame us!
me too, loves dog, got a pet shitzu at home, spent some much $$ on grooming every mth.

Ad,
Now we know why Renee & Yvonne are skinny type. I wonder how ppl can resist tibits and chocolate but is true very sinful la. Each time i want to go on diet, i just need to stop eating these and i can slim down a little. Really lucky that i exercise regularly if not ....... but still at my age fat became stubborn. OK i will start my dieting tomorro.
Did u like the oysters at GW? for me is not creamy enough but hb crazy abt it. U love seafood? Maybe next time can go makan together, me and hb seafood lover.
Yvonne,
Thanks for the info of FET, great help. As i am hoping that my O day will not be too early cos doc is away so i do not want to take any medication. But with Xia Rong medicine, i worry shun shun D14 like Sept.

Thks for all your sharing ... will consider properly before deciding on laparoscopy. I haven't tried TCM yet; maybe shd consider some time soon. Hey, for those of u in the 2WW, best of luck
I cannot tahan the 2WW after my 2 previous IUIs ... such a torture!
Coincidentally, my hubby and I also considering getting a puppy (saw from your recent postings that most of u have pets). But I haven't decided yet cos it's a long term commitment; not sure if I can cope.
Let's all pray hard for a piglet baby ....

bba,
nope, dr xia rong will not tell you if your body is ready, but you need to tell her if you are doing any treatment so that she can prescribe right medicine for you. ya lor she mentioned at least about 3 mths but depending on individual lah, some faster some slower lor.

BB,
if your ovulation on D14, then can try the scan on D12 or D13 when your prof is back lor, discuss with him on few options, another way is to take blood test and urine test to find out your ovulation while he is away too, beside scan, i did blood test and urine test too.

75gal,
i think you better concentrate on making bb instead, buying a dog is really a life time commitment, not everyone can do that, I have seen lots of unwanted dogs, so pitiful and for your infor, some ppl will throw away their dogs when pregnant cos they worry about virus to the foetus or some dr will tell you not to touch any dogs or cats but actually dogs dun pass on virus so easily, cats more virus and uncooked meat or veg that contain contaminated soil does, so avoid coming in contact with pet's faeces and uncooked food.

renee,
cannot sleep liao, slept too early and woke up at 3am, feeling warm whole body, especially my palms like got fire and all blood concentrating there, looks so red too, i usually will have this warm feeling after ovulation and nearer and nearer to menses time. body temp too high and the chinese medicine also a bit heaty one.
was thinking about what xia rong said to me that if really pregnant, ask me to go and take the "an tai" medicine from her clinic, advisable or not? cos thought most ppl who believe in chinese herb one also say first trimeter dun take any chinese herb, start after that. Did your sinseh say anything about "an tai" chinese herb for the first 3 mths if you get pregnant?

Hi ladies,
I am new to this thread. Hv been TTCing for abt 1yr and found out lately that my problem is both factors.
HB went for surgery coz dr suspected its variocele but after 3mths, results still come out v negative.
Mine is due to hormone factor. Did the hormone profile test n found out that my FSH,LH, Estradiol, Progesterone are all v way below avg. Hv been takg TCM for abt 5mths but results still like tat. Kindda upset over it.
Tink my current gynae is gg to refer me to NUH for AI. I m not sure based on both our condition, is IVF/IUI etc feasible or not coz our results r really v bad.
No mood to work or continue this plan coz its juz so mind taxing.

Hi Tweetie,
Understand your frustrations.....
My hubby and I r also facing the similar situation as your case....hubby sperm normal morphology not improving since the surgery....
As for me, I have endor.....which was removed thru surgery.......but still cannot conceive...
We have gone thru 2 rounds of AI but not successful....now final proposal IVF....
IVF will cause much side effects to our bodies....so, must consider carefully and it is a mentally, physically and financially draining process......I am not ready to be up to these expectations yet.....
Ah.......just so frustrated.....
Well, trying to take things easy....and will seriously conside adoption if IVF not viable for now.....

Hi Joan,
Has the doc asked or explain to you how come HB's surgery failed? Our doc was v confident that after surgery, all will be well. But now, its not really as promising as he said. We r gg back to him again end of the mth and c what he says or any proposal that he can come up with.
Right nw, I guess I m just letting fate decide what we need to do nxt.
Hi Nanz,
Thanks for your encouragement!
Now m just letting fate decide my life.

BB, so you've decided to do your FET this month?
Yvonn,
wa, so early..... thought got massage would zzz better.
eeh, feeling hot and red?? could it be.....?? good good good. may be you strike already.
I guess for you to tak xiang rong's "an tai" is fine cos you are not taking any hormone jab for this FET. If i were to be you i will take her "an tai" med. as for my sinseh, she said up to me. if I feel comfortable to take she will prescript. otherwise just boil some light herbal soup weekly to go wt meal. but i hv yet to ask her wat r the herbal soup to cook. I still have 4 more days to go leh.
