Singapoh, I also having twins but similar to Hazel, I dun feel the tappings daily. Sometimes it can be very light too. I'll be seeing Dr. Loh tomorrow, shall ask him if it's normal.
Hazel, mine was supposed to be a 8 weeks gap too.....but coz of the FTS results then, I got to see him after 5 wks before my planned amino....
Bbhp. u ard the same wk as Hazel? If yes, then i think it's normal lar..I heard 1st pregnancy won't feel so fast one...furthermore, initial stage v v light tapping....sometimes, u may not realise the tapping if u r busy and don't have time to monitor....don't worry, ok? I'm sure ur babies are fine....I remembered telling Singapoh that I had to beg my son to move so that I can feel him...hehehe

Hazel,
In a way, i share your anxiety about seeing our bbs. Sometimes, i wonder if the bb is doing well.
Esp. when i came to know my dh's classmate having a stillborn which she was like nearly due. Very sad for her.
But, if you look at the logical perspective that alot of things is beyond our control so we might as well believe things are fine and be happy about it.
How come your next checkup is 8 wks later? My package checkup is like 20wk, 24wk, 27wk, 30wk, 32, 34wk, 36wk and then weekly till 40wks.

Singapoh, thanks for asking about me. So touch.. ：）
todayas usual as busy. I only left office after 7.15pm.
Supposed to eat on desk again but my other dear colleague very concern if I continue like this. So I had a quick lunch with her.
I can feel bb movement though not as often as normal most probably because too busy already.
Btw I can call that kk no. Even if I'm not kkh patient?
Jus clear up the study room, tomorrow will paint it pink Liao yay... Then will arrange the drawer cabinet for bb stuff. When maid is here will start washing all the clothings
will change curtain to white n pink too. This still need to search.

Firstly I like to say thanks to all sisters here who have been so kind to share so much info for us who experience the same concerns.
I have been reading the postings here in the last 2 hours and would like to seek help and support here. Well in fact, I went to see my gynae today and was told that the chances of my husband and I conceiving naturally was very low. My husband has low sperm count and sperm motility. In fact, before we did the sperm analysis to discover this awful truth, I was found pregnant in Mar 09 but 8 weeks later had to wash it out as it was an empty sac. While we had pick ourselves up from our sadness, we had been trying for 9 months but unsuccessful.
My gynae did an external and virgina scan on me for any abnormalities but found nothing unusual. Her deduction was since I was pregnant before, it was quite unlikely that my tubes would be blocked. Nevertheless she suggested doing the fallopian tubes Xray to check for any blockages. I'm holding back this option since my husband's sperm is not strong enough to swim plus the quantity is much lower than normality.
So our gynae suggested the following:
- (1) My husband to start taking oral supplements for a month then do a sperm analysis again. If no significant improvement, we will be referred to see a urologist for further tests and perhaps an op to rectify any blockage (if any).
- (2) After seeking urology treatments and if still no success, we will be referred back to the gynae and she'll recommend us to IVF.
Sorry for the lengthy story of mine.... but I seriously need some advice here (I'm very confused and disappointed). Please share with me (if you had similar situation) whether your hubby had seen an urologist and after supplements/surgery/other treatments before you embark on the IVF journey? Or do you suggest that we should proceed to IVF and save the money on the Urology treatments?
Much appreciated.

Kittlyn,
I hv been ttc since I was 28. I did 3 IUI and tried TCM but failed to conceive.
I went thru many tests including the test to see if my tubes r blocked. Dr found nothing wrong with me. Dh's sperm count was low but after taking Vit E for about 6 months, it improved.
I conceived my 1st baby thru my 1st IVF cycle when I was 33. Now I m preggy with twins thru FET.
You will need to be patience. It's a long road ahead. Do all necessary tests before u decide to go for IVF.

Kittlyn, u n ur dh has to decide if ur dh wants to see a urology. Low motility n low sperm counts r common men's problems. There r lots of reasons for that. Eg, his general health, work stress, blockage, etc.
My colleague saw a urology coz all 3 factors of his sperms r no gd, motility, count n mobility. Urologist said he has an extra blood vessel n that cld be the reason. Coz extra temp may affect sperms quality. He went through a surgery to remove tt extra vessel. It has been 2 yrs n his wife still not pregnant.
If I m not wrong, u r with pte hospital right? Why not seek a 2nd opinion with a fertility specialist at a restrctured hospital - SGH, NUH or KKH.. Coz at these hospitals u will only need to do checks which r necessary. Who knows, they may just ask u to do ivf immediately.

Stb, u still drink coke daily?? Thursday I will see gynae for routine check. Should have no concern on weight. But let's see sugar level this time
ya I know when busy normally will miss the movement though normally my gal will move very hard so very hard to miss it. I will only miss it when I'm very stress that my abdominal muscle is so tight then I have to tell myself to relax lo.

me? me whr got happening? dun anyhow say wor
Ju, Vi4n, no lar....we never take my preggy photo lar...I am tempted to take but a bit too shy to suggest to hubby..hehehe...*blush* hubby is those type of practical and non-romantic guy...so if ask him to take, he sure think i crazy..
Vi4n, good lar, try to rest as much as u can...and train ur maid up....me aso starting maternity on 31st May....wonder will our kids arrive earlier than that?
Yup, I'm still on coke almost everyday....lucky me, passed the urine test during the sat checkup...wonder is my son so active coz me taking coke...I heard hor, if preggy woman eats something v regularly, the kid comes out won't like the thing leh..so hor, I wonder since i drink coke so regularly, will he dislike coke in the future?? hiak hiak...
Singapoh, my staff are either mummies or older than me....so they r concerned abt me mah....quite glad that I've managed to build a rapport with them that they are so concerned of me and baby...8)
Fishball on chopstick??? grrrrrr......
Kittlyn, u may wan to go for 2nd opinion if u r uncertain now. Some of us have managed to conceive w the help of Dr Loh from KKH or Dr PC Wong from NUH....I'm not sure abt Dr PC Wong, however, Dr Loh will do some initial checks on both of u unless u have earlier test results to share w him, then he may suggest iui or ivf depending on your conditions and comfort level...
