hehehe, that's why insurance companies damn rich..they give you assurance on paper.Yah exactly. It's not fair. Even if you put 2 in and got a singleton, you still have to pay premium for 2.

Hi, are we allowed to do fresh when we have frozen embbies? I remember i heard during counselling that we have to utilized all the embbies before we can start another fresh if we are to use gov grant. Not 100 percent sure tho. Anymore input regarding this? I think its best to check with kkivf before making any decision.I think it would be more worth it to go for another fresh cycle (to max out the govt co-funding), extract the eggs first then say. Cos frozen cycles are cheaper than fresh ones.
Ya, i think if we have frozen embryos, we are not allowed to embark on a fresh cycle...hmmm...yup, please check with KKIVF 1st. Thanks for the reminder, @Bbelieve !Hi, are we allowed to do fresh when we have frozen embbies?

@Bbelieve *Wave* We will have our BT on the same day next week. I am at 7dp5dt. Experiencing cramps and backache now. Hope the red dun appear!Hi hi. Am in my 2ww as well. First fresh cycle. 8dp3dt. Ur 2ww ending soon. Few more days. Ur boy shall keep you busy so time flies faster. I dont even wan to count down to my bt cos its just so far away. Haha. Good luck to u ya
I guess it would be wiser to go for fresh to 'stock up' your embryos before u hit big 4. As after that no more govt grant right.. It's a hefty 6.3k grant.Waiting to do my blood test too. Did they tell u the level during ur first beta or do u have to request for it?
All the best ya... Come what may
Asking for opinions. Will be 40 next Feb but my blood test (6mths validity) will expire end Jan. Have 3 frozen embryos with kkivf. Will it be better to go for a 2nd fresh while still eligible for govt Co-funding? Any thoughts?
Thank you for sharing sisterI spent 1 week resting at home, watching dramas etc
And another 1 week working.
For both weeks I listened to the IVF belief CD to calm me down each day.
Heh, I tot so too, but seems like have to use up the frozen 1st before embarking on the next fresh cycle..forgot that the "cheng hu" has thought about that before rolling out the policies. they won't give it to us so easily!I guess it would be wiser to go for fresh to 'stock up' your embryos before u hit big 4.

I guess as long as dr allow then ok.. It happened to a sister with nuh too. Still have frozen embby left but allowed to do fresh again as she's turning 40Heh, I tot so too, but seems like have to use up the frozen 1st before embarking on the next fresh cycle..forgot that the "cheng hu" has thought about that before rolling out the policies. they won't give it to us so easily!
Sorry to hear that. And yes, keep the spirits up! Take good care of yourself. *hugs*BFN. confirmed and chopped. guaranteed.
still have strange tugging sensations, but nurse said it is common, now just wait for AF to make her grand arrival lo.
shall make a list of questions to ask the doc next week during my appt, keeping spirits up! already spent 1 hour talking to embryologist just now. It really helps to talk it out.
shall eat whatever I want to eat ...for now!
I don't see any contraindications to exercise now. Can start as soon as you're ok to start. Should have already recover from OR by nowanyone here can advise how soon after an IVF cycle , did u go back to an exercise regime? I find that I'm now easily tired, need to rebuild my health. Used to do some pilates and light jogging, really keen to use exercise to clear my mind and get rid of all those nasty hormones...
piglet02, I'm starting my 4th fresh cycle under Dr Tan HH too. But I'm starting IVF in Nov. 1st briefing fixed on 7 Oct 15. My previous 3 cycles were under Dr Loh SF. Dr Tan HH took over and I BFP for my FET. He's my lucky star!I starting my 4th fresh cycle under Dr Tan HH this mth too. Anyone?
Hi hi.. your symptoms sound good. I don feel anything wor. Feeling so normal. Jia you for ourself and our embbies!@Bbelieve *Wave* We will have our BT on the same day next week. I am at 7dp5dt. Experiencing cramps and backache now. Hope the red dun appear!
@the_spinsterella I see that you joined the May 2016 MTB group. When is your EDD? I am silent reader now until my next scan to confirm viability of the pregnancy.
@Bbelieve Dr THH asked me to try blastocyst coz I have 6 remaining embryos from my fresh cycle. But result not so gd coz only one blastocyst successful. another one not gd to transfer. Then the rest all cannot make it to D5. Wondering if it bcoz my embryos not gd quality tat why like tat? Maybe this oso explain why I failed my fresh cycle with 2 D3 embryos transferred.Hi hi.. your symptoms sound good. I don feel anything wor. Feeling so normal. Jia you for ourself and our embbies!
Btw, did you request for blasto culture or doctor recommended to you? Seems like a lot of sisters here do 5 days transfer. Must be very strong embryos.

Just did mine. Was told they would call me btwn 3-4pm although I read that if it's BFN, they usually call much earlier
hmmm... i think better wait for the tissue histology report to be out first, since I just discharged some tissue last week (possibly miscarriaged. got it removed at kkh 24 hr clinic). and wait for AF to clear first too. Later after exercise, here ache there ache, plus AF cramps, might be miserableI don't see any contraindications to exercise now. Can start as soon as you're ok to start. Should have already recover from OR by now
@Milc Last time when I had the fetal tissue removed via D&C, I actually did a mini confinement for two weeks. It's like a normal confinement where you eat warm food and keep yourself warm but only for two weeks instead of one month. I also had jamu massage just like those who had just given birth. Then after the two weeks of confinement, I started exercising again but started with light exercises like walking on treadmill. Rest well first and don't over-exert yourself. Take care!hmmm... i think better wait for the tissue histology report to be out first, since I just discharged some tissue last week (possibly miscarriaged. got it removed at kkh 24 hr clinic). and wait for AF to clear first too.

My EDD supposed to be 18 May too if viable. But have spotting so now waiting for my turn at kkh o&g. Really praying hard this is happening.EDD should be 17 May based on the online calculator. But I'm going for my scan only next week so yes, I'm not sure also. Quite nervous actually. :-/
Sister, any results?

Thanks to all who's thinking and praying for me.
I rec'd the call much later than expected and composed myself before answering. When told of my result, my mind went blank then I asked "are you sure because my hpt this morning is a clear BFN".
Was assured that the result is accurate and that they have verified with Dr THH and he wants me to go back on Fri for a 2nd reading because of my continuous blood flow so he's rather concerned.
My beta is 73. Dr THH says this is an acceptable reading for 12dp2dt even though passing mark is 250.
However, the fact that I been having moderately heavy flow for 6 days already, I honestly don't know where this is going.
Regardless, I just want to say anything is really possible! I was feeling really gutted actually but I held on to the tiniest hope. This sounds very silly but I spoke to my embies daily. I told them to hang in there, to stay with me and don't give up.
Jiayou to all in 2WW. Sometimes miracles happened when u believe in them.

From day 1 of stimm, most ladies take at least 2 egg whites daily..Shortcake2, Sonique2001, at which stage does we need to start to consume egg white, and how many egg white is recommended. And is having egg white been advised by Doctor as I seems on this forum, it seems a lot of people having egg whites.

I'm 38y 7mths old now and currently on 4dp2dt after my 3rd fresh ICSI transfer. I have been with Dr Loh SF at Thomson Fertility Centre all my cycles.

Hi dear,thanks. We tried liao with supplements,brazil nuts etc. Still not good enough to bfp. Will keep trying while still before 40. Jiayou!!Hi connie_hopeful,
You may ask your hubby to eat some oyster/supplement to improve the quality of the sperm, you may eat some food which can improve your egg quality too, a lot of sisters have advised what to eat to improve the quality of egg before in this forum.
Sister, any results?
Congratulations!!! I'm so happy for you. We will keep on praying for your success story!

I went for my third scan today. 26 follicles. 10 are good sized ones according to doctor. But I am at risk of OHSS because too many follicles are popping up. Doc says if I have OHSS, they will freeze the embbies and make me go for the next cycle. I don't want!!! :'(
Now I'm feeling slight nausea and had runny tummy. Hope it resolves :'(
