Thanks dear! I am with Doc Sadhana for my second IVF cycle and previously with Doc Tan HH who did my first IVF cycle + IUI. I was also better prepared for my second IVF with accupunture and TCM. To be honest, I will be quite disappointed if this IVF did not work out due to Day-4 embryo + early blastocyst. I would definitely prefer to transfer blastocyst but I guess KKH does not do transfer on Sundays (my day 5).
Haha, I duno how to see my embryos grades from the pictures so I will check with the embryologist again when they call me to update me if I got any balance to freeze.
Thanks for sharing the tips and they are helpful!
I will check the pregnancy milk out too 
Good luck with your blood test tomorrow! Sending much love over to you!

JTS, this was what happened to one of my cycle buddies previously. Ironically, she transferred 2 blast but apparently 1 blast didn’t make it (she had bleeding with blood clots) but the other actually split so still ended with twins. She & her hubs has no twins genes in the family so probably its fated. And yes, raising multiples is very challenging in terms of emotional, physical and financial. You do need a lot of (reliable) support from family. The worries that come with it is also doubled. And there’s sometimes a guilt part whereby you can’t fully bond with your twins if both need your attention at the same time. But I do understand where you are coming from if age is a factor; and wanting to increase your chances by transferring 2. Coz for every failed cycle means you gota restart and precious time is wasted again while your bio-clock is ticking away. So discuss with your spouse, weigh the pros & cons but just be mentally prepared for twins if you do decide to transfer 2 embryos.

You can try these
-Leafy vegetables such as spinach
-Soya milk
-Tofu
-Broccoli
-Sesame seeds
-Nuts
-Whole grains
Calcium is very important for the growth of your child's bone & teeth.. Vitamin D or expose to sun is recommended for the calcium absorption.. hope this helps!
Thanks for sharing!
It just happens? Maybe call it destined for those who have embryos splitting into 2? Nevertheless, if you are concerned, putting in 1 will always be the safest and minimises all risks. Esp towards the end of the pregnancy. It’s your call anyway
I have heard of people saying putting in two risks the better one not implanting too if the other one is of a lower grade. Not sure how true but food for thought.

Thank you. I’m having a different brand. I don’t really fancy milk, so I will usually mix with lesser water but maintaining the recommended number of scoops.
Can we still warm our belly during 2ww?

Its still good dear!!
After the ET, try not to warm your womb too much directly using the rubber bag. No need to use the rubber bag pack, enough covering it with a comforter or a blanket over your abdomen.. Embryo don't like too hot once they are implanted. Same goes to showering.. luke warm is good.. also, continue wearing thick socks...
All the best!!!

With God's Will!! *praying* currently waiting for the results.. resting in the clinic. if you ladies staying far, stick around the hospital for abt 2hrs or so while waiting for the call from them on your Beta Results.. they might ask u to come back to the clinic to collect your prescription for the next phase in pregnancy journey. I got this tips from one of the sweet members here who shared with me.. wanna go Daiso at Novena but too early.. lol!!!

How to have one blast (5-day embryo) and one 4-day embryo from one egg retrieval?
MamiMeow

Hi everyone.. does anyone ever transfer day 5 slow growing blastocyst with no grading (neither good or poor blast? I just had my transfer this morning at kkh with Dr. Jessie phoon of 2 blast (no grade). I was told that my embryos fertilized well but slow in growing. I got total of 11 ER, 10 fertilized, 7 embryos, 6 blastocysts however they are unable to grade it due to slow growing but able to do the transfer with the chosen ones by doc. They will give me a call in 3-4days time to inform if the balance of 4 blast are growing well and able to be freeze.
All i understand from doc the reason being why they proceed for the tranfer eventho there is no grading due to the lining that unable to wait until day 6 and above. Im only given to continue crinone gel twice a day until my bloodtest in 2 weeks.
Im so curious if anyone here went thru the same situation as mine and should i be disappointed abt the no grade blast being transfered? I've been thinking & worry for no specific reason eversince the transfer this morning.
I'll appreciate replies to this. TIA!

Its just the speed growth of the embryos dear.. early Blastocyst and day 4 egg or known as Morula stage are almost nearing to their transition to the next stage.. after Morula it goes to early Blastocyst then blastocyst.

Hi dear, don't worry too much on it ya.. i did read on other ivf pages that blastocyst with grade C or poor grading still have a chance to implant successfully.. is this your 1st cycle dear? Maybe u can ask these to the embryologist when she call you in a few days. U are able to ask them the reasons for the no grading etcs.. for now, relax & keep your feet warm.. Also the womb lining also plays a major part to allow the blastocyst to implant.. from what i understand as long as the embryo has gone to the morula or blastocyst stage, they already completed the complicated process of fertilization.. now is to wait and hope the womb lining able to react and recognize the blastocyst to cause implantation to occur. Other than that, keep yourself hydrated with warm water or red dates alright? All the best!
Hi. I did this protocol. Menses came 14 days after lucrin jab.
Thanks for sharing. Is that later than your normal cycle?
I encountered this. To be honest, grading is not exactly important. Even if the doc tells me it's not good grade, I will also not give up the chance of transfer, would you? So meanwhile just hope for the best and hopefully there more blast to be frozen when they call you in a few days time.
Hi, can I check where under the health hub app do you find test results? Last time health buddy used to have it but seems no longer available.Ladies, my Beta HCG is out.. *shocked*

Hi Azasha
Thank u for kind motivation & explaination. This is my 1st fresh cycle.
Hi Azasha
Thank u for yr kind motivation & explaination. This is my 1st fresh cycle. I've asked the embryologist he said this is uncommon and the outcome of balance blast can only be known on d6 or d7 which he will gv me a call to inform how many blast will be able to freeze. Im very disturbed with the word uncommon until i forgot to ask what does he meant by uncommon and why they are able to do the transfer since they are unable to unidentified the quality. I tried to google abt it but mostly were rejected and unable to transfer due to slow growing embryos/ blasts. Guess my case is different and wondering if anyone got similiar situation as mine and im curious how is the progress goes.
Hihi, it came about the same timing cuz I have Long cycles like 30 over days. I have pcos that caused the Long cycle.

Since you are able to do fresh transfer, go give it a chance even no grading or slow growing. I'm also under dr jessie. For my case, also slow growing and no grading at D7. But bcos my progesterone is high, cannot do fresh transfer. The quality of embryo also cannot go through freezing. Hence, the embryo are wasted.

Hi dear, don't worry so much!! When i was in my 1st cycle, i knew that my eggs weren't good bcoz i didnt prep my body at all.. and when the transfer day came, my Dr asked me do u want to transfer it or not? Although i had 17 eggs ER and 7 progressed, i just took the chance to have it transferred. My dr didnt tell me the grade or quality of it.. i feel that rather than having it left in the lab with no gurantee if they will make it, i just decide to have it inserted to me. As i guessed, only 1 egg gets to freeze.. the rest didn't make it.. 1st cycle is like a trial dear.. dont get too upset if it didn't work..
the next will be better. *Hugs*
