IVF/ICSI Support Group

Bee .. All the best to u .. Hope u n all sisters in 2ww can Bfp soon n spread all bb dust to us ..

U mean they also tel u ur egg quality .. TFC only tell me the grading of embryos but not my egg quality though
 


Lin> Thanks and let's all jiayou.

Bee> Thanks for your comment on the two tcm doc. Yes actually i have been to the tcm at Marine Parade few years back cos heard review that he has helped several couple to conceive. Thus a bit desperate now that failed ivf and thinking of building up body again before next ivf. Currently still keeping options open see if want to go seek new tcm or go back to the Marine Parade one.
 
Ravene: mine is ensure life. We drink is becos of the selenium contain is high. Help implantation. U can start with the same bottle first.

Ladies: u may want to choose a tcm which is near to you as this will be a long long time issue.
 
Serene, We are all on the same boat, understand how u feel...please stay strong, it may take a while though! It has never been easy after few failures...but do stay strong!
 
Thanks ladies...

Oh.. actually I took the chance to ask the embryologist on how is the sperm and how is the egg... when I am getting the report... then he told me... but he also say there are many others whom have poor embryo quality yet succeed.. so... again.. I repeated.. all these are fated...
 
Serene, we just do our best. As someone commented before, this is the most difficult exam for me to pass..

I have been telling myself that without a child does not mean it is the end of the world for me. There is a lot of things for us to do.

Let's jia you! Ganbata!
 
Serene
I agreed with you. Luck and fate does play a small role in ivf.

Ravene
I kwn, thanks. TFC also never tell me abt my egg quality, usually I see fm the report and guess whther is a gd embryos a not. Most of the time, I have to ask dr Loh what was the reason fr my failed ivf.
 
Babysmurf, tugging feeling may be a good sign. Jiayou!

Min81 & Lin> this b is sure a big project. I too quit my job in may to concentrate on this. Hope we all get bfp real soon
happy.gif
let's all jiayou
 
Min81
No, I did not have constipation aft the lap. Btw, didn't ask u why you had 4incision? Also dr Loh did not give me any cream to apply when he took out my bandages ....hmmmmm

Ya, jia you and hope to hear good news from u girls soon
happy.gif
 
Lin > Thanks, I usually shop at xtra as I find their food fresher. I'm particular about quality of fresh groceries so prefer to shop early morning. But xiao bai cai is considered cooling, so try to avoid if possible. I'm not much of a follower of chinese med beliefs, but these days I try to follow as much as I can.

Nailova > Congrats, another sis successful story!
 
Cocobie,

Haha.. Ya this is the biggest project ever.. Let's all work hard towards our goal!

Asiafrighter,

Actually i don't feel unwell or constipated, but just very funny no urge to move bowels.. Doc say the medi should help.. Mm i also dunno why 4 incisions but i went for the whole works - lap, hysteroscopy, etc.. Cos i said might as well check everything all at one time.. There was actually a possibility of fixing a part of my uterus too but he checked during surgery and said all ok.. Showed me all the photos of my insides.. Interesting.. Actually i have very sensitive skin and prone to keloids.. During surgery, he also injected steroids on the skin around the wound to try and prevent keloid formation.. Maybe that's why i'm given cream, mainly cos of my skin..
 
cocobie> when u starting ur next? or are u seeing tcm first?

min> i constipated for 3days only.. then after that my stool hard, n go on alternate days. a week later back to normal. its part of surgery.. i also got sensitive skin (eczema), and i got a pus on the belly wound a week later..

joyhope> oh xiao bai cai is cooling? i heard brocoli also... so wat vege to eat huh??? hmmm..
 
Lin > Broccoli isn't as cooling as xiao bai cai, so take in moderation. Now I mainly eat carrot, kailan and chyesim. Sweet potatoes are good too, I cook it with ginger and pandan leaf as dessert. Ginger can warm up body too.
 
Lin,

Broccoli also cooling?? Jialat.. Really very limited vege to eat..

Wah i'm the same as u, also have eczema.. But that one is ok.. The impt thing is the keloid.. Once formed, that's it.. So we just try to prevent.. Hope will help.. I'm actually thinking of seeing tcm abt 2 wks later.. Curious to know how's my condition after mc and lap this yr..
 
Min81 > Really very limited vegetable, not much choice. I also have eczema, but as long as I don't sweat its ok. Is it safe to apply the steriod cream?
 
Asiafighter .. Yah better tiao body first n c wat tsb say or give green light before embarking on the bb project
happy.gif
let's jia you together ..
 
Joyhope,

Hmm.. Looks like gotta research and do up a list of vege that will be good for 2ww..

The gel that doc gave me just now is not steroid cream.. It's a gel used by plastic surgeons to aid wound healing.. For my eczema, used to apply steroid creams only when have bad flare.. Currently, controlling it quite well with good moisturisers.. I tried bio oil recently, find it very good..
 
Lin > I planned to start my next cycle in Nov but cos still need to see Dr and review next week to confirm. Thus while waiting for next cycle to start plan to tiao my body with tcm.
 
Hi Ladies,

My husband is afraid of needles,and I'm not sure if I dare to do the injections myself. I'm going to start IVF this mth end.

Anyone can suggest what can I do in case both my husband and I din dare to do the injections?
 
Hi Christine, initially I was scared too. After my first try, i realize it wasn't as difficult as I had imagined it to be. In fact I find it better to jab myself cos there's better control as we can feel if the meds r being gushed in too fast or not...
happy.gif
Dnt worry... It's a breeze after u try the first time ☺
