Hi Mrs FS. I'm feeling your disappointment. Still the right thing to do now is to follow your clinic's advice, call hotline let them know the situation then follow their advice on support and BT. Try to stay positive as worrying only do more harm now. Just try your best & hope for the best. Persevere on & Jia you k.

When I had bad constipation after first cycle ER, my TCM doc said ok to take some prune juice but in moderation. I also had apple with skin, lots of leafy veg and water. It helped me. Hope you feel better soon & all the best for your ET tmr! +++Jia you!

Don't worry and relax, cherylng, rest your mind, am sure ur surge will come. It it good that your 3 days bt falls on weekend, at least no need to take leave. So when will you know if you reach your surge?

Hi Dollylittlegal - m trying hard to rest & relax this wkend. just back from BT. Will only know the results on tmr morning after the BT & scan. Cos they will only review yestday pm & today's BTs then.
Actually for Friday's 2 BT - I took time off from work. Think they can issue mc but I don't want cos want to go office to clear some work...

Try taking chia seeds. It's healthy and It helps. For me, I take 2 tablespoons and add to 500ml of water.

Wishing you all the best, it's easier for us to say relax as it is extremely nervous and anxious on your part. Try to take the weekends easy, shopping keep occupied, do something you like.

I feel you as I just encounter the same situation. As long it's not affirmed with BT, there's always a possibility. Keep positive!!!

Ofcourse U can. There are many cases when the girls waiting for ivf and strike before they cycle. Time wait for no one. We ovulate an egg every mth and what if it happen to be a good egg so don't let it go to waste.

Plan to let kkh know tomorrow during my appointment. My bloating is more from the constipation than the ER

Good to let your doc know.

I inform my doc on that day when I suppose to do ET. I was prescribe some medicine to clear the system before I do my ET on the same day. But the next day, the constipation came back:(:confused:
 
Any body tried sheep placenta mulitvits here?care to share its effects on the menstural cycle?

My tcm recommend me to take this to improve egg quality. She says its more natural than dhea as i told her when i consume dhea,i have hair droppinh problems. But I wonder it will has any effects like resetting e menses. Or no? Anyone can share if ever consume placenta before?thanks

For how long you took dhea and notice hair dropping?
 
patn said:
I'll take note if i experience same cos i am about 2wks into dhea.
Thanks for sharing.

No worries,i understood that dhea did help some gals in e forum get a better ivf result n pregnant. N they dun have much side effects. I am just e minority ba.

I just wonder anybody ate sheep placenta supplement and does it helps improve the ivf results? N will orginal menses date change?

Well, he shouldn't think that way. I was ttc for almost 9 years too, and during the wait after a failed ivf, I successfully conceived naturally and now Ard 14 weeks. I believe ivf has some way of rebooting our body so it may have helped. More importantly, keep the intimacy going.

I had to run to O&G and they gave me stools softener... haha! The constipation during that period of time is seriously no joke!

Maybe....as I abit like rushing for time..... D8 to D18 the follicles are still same...7.5 ..(Tiny) so i think by this fri ...if still not growing at all.....follicles this cycle should be cancel...
Can i ask for medicine to come mense....so can try again next cycle? Maybe it better off to cancel this cycle...as it does not look good.

Hmm, I agree, since this cycle is not as good, it would be better to abandon it then to force it through.
Yes, you can request for medication to induce menses so that you can try again next cycle. You want to make it in time before CNY period?

Towkayneo/ Cherylng

Maybe this friday last scan...if still not growing at all the follicle and lining...i think will abort this cycle...the doc (african lady doc) said.

I think friday should request for medicine to induce mense and request to see Dr Tan to request for medicated FET next round...

I should be too stressful for it to grow.... I did drink a lot of red bean soup.. Thanks for encouragements !!!!

@joellejo - maybe u can up the intake of eggs. Think some ladies took 6 eggs per day prior OR. Stress is unhealthy for our cycle. Must relax. I know it's easier said than done. Cos I also can't relax last wkend while chasing after my lh surge :l
Jiayou!!
 
DawnBB said:
Dear sister, take good care and stay strong. I'm sure you will because your precious little one growing inside you will be your greatest motivation and cheer mummy on too. Not worth stressing yourself over comments or opinions from from others regardless of their intention. Never doubt yourself. Must build positive energy to nourish your and bb's bodies & minds. Since doc already advised you, make the best of your trip and be happy. *hugs*

Thank you Dawn! I told myself to take it easy and just go on. *hugs*

In fact my doc asked us to go on a short holiday but I can't I'm having exams next month. :(
Anyway i have learnt to left ear in and right ear out to keep myself sane and not affected by what ppl say. If they dont understand no point putting their remarks in our hearts and get upset over it. Not worth!
Getting our health up is the main thing we need to focus.
I say, go for your deserved holiday! :)

Thanks Patn. Yessss.. must come in left ear come out right eat! Otherwise will go crazy. Bahah.
