i started my blog last month before my stimulation jabs but have no time to update it anymore. haha
ok i started my jabs on 11/4/13 until 22/4/13. I started with 150 gonal-f for 4 days but due to slow growth doctor increase to 300 from day 5 till 12. On the last day 12 before trigger, there were 7 follicles on my left size 21, 18, 17.5, 17, 15, 14 and my E2 is 10,928. So my life depends only on my left ovary. My right ovary is absent due to removal since young.
So i went for ER on 23/4/13. Doctor retrieve 10 follicles, 9 eggs mature, 5 fertilized from icsi. Did a 3 day transfer on 27/4/13 with 2 embryos both in cell-7.
Den i started my 2WW. It was a long dreaded wait. I start to pee on stick on 4 May after 7 days transfer, it was negative. I pee again but this time on another brand 7 May after 10 days transfer and it turns out a faint positive. I try again on a cheaper hpt test but still negative. Den i start to bleed abit and having stomach cramps as if my mensus is coming.
The next day after 11 days transfer, i pee on stick again and still positive. I was not satisfied coz i am still bleeding abit. I went to go and buy the electronic clear blue test and it turns out Pregnant 1-2 weeks. I was so nervous due to the bleed and cramps Im having. I called the clinic and ask for early blood test the next day. This was already day 12 days after embryo transfer.
It was positive with beta 76. I feel it was very low. But nurse says its ok. So was given the oil jab and more vagina support and oral pills. The next day the bleed stop and my cramps stop too.
I go again for blood test on Monday and the beta has increase to 333. My next appt is on Mon for scan and see doctor. Really hope to see the sac.
I started dhea in January but stop a month before my ivf begins because i was having bad rashes allergy. I continue taking coq 10 and folic only before and during my ivf. Ate egg white and milk. During 2ww, i rested only for 3 days den i was doing normal household chores. Never did any acupuncture before. This is my first ivf. And out of 5, 2 transfer in me but only 1 frozen because the other 2 stop growing.
I really hope to see a sac on this coming Monday. And the beta will increase. I wish all the ladies going thru ivf all the best and be strong coz no one can understand what we go thru just to have a complete family. =)
