Hi Dawn & Catz
Can I ask roughly when does your AF come (e.g. dpo) when you are on clomid? Cos mine will be 14dpo soon and I want to gauge when to go back and see G if it doesn't come. Shld I go after I take the preg test, meaning about 16-18dpo? I was supposed to go for my blood test on CD 2 of the next cycle leh.
Thanks.

Hi ruggles, my AF just came last night....
will still continue to work hard, thanks for your baby dust, will catch lots of it!
I think it is still too early to see the sac, don't worry. My fren also had bad cramps during the early stages, gyane said the uterus is expanding. Don't eat liang stuff/raw food, that's what i heard. Don't move around too much,

Hi Dawn,
I know it is difficult, but have to stay cheerful and think positive (that's what my hubb says to me all the time).
I am still having the tummyache, and I actually ate raw fish last week... urgh...
I will call my GP again tmr and ask about the stomachache. Meanwhile, I get all the excuse in the world to not do anything at home. Haha..
You take good care yourself yah? It's term 4 liao.. school is closing soon.. should be exams now right? so not much teaching to do. Rest and relax.

ruggles, 2nd trimester you must enjoy yourself. I went to NYC at the end of first trimester.. a bit miserable but ended up getting my appetite back at teh m'sian restaurant. Haha
Can enjoy lah but watch what you eat.. no dodgy hotdog vendors etc.. Then can go US and stock up on baby clothes!! SHIOK!
dawn, your day will come.. no worries. I also felt very hopeless after 1.5 years of trying.. then who knew? Just one time on clomid and pop.. haha

hehe.. yah keep it to yourself until end of first trimester lah.. trust me, 2 trimesters of anxious questions is more than enough! You can take it really easy when you're in the US lor. Take lots of toilet breaks when you're driving 'cos you will keep peeing and peeing! On the flight, drink heaps of water and don't forget to bring snacks 'cos for preggies, you need something to snack every 2-3 hours to keep your blood sugar constant, if not can pengsan.
I told my parents only. Didn't want to tell MIL.. but it was easier 'cos I was in the US. Usually people keep it hush hush until end of first trimester when the pregnancy is more stable lor. For me, I was super paranoid of miscarriage 'cos PCOS tends to make for higher miscarriage rate.. sorry to have to panic you.
Waaah skiing.. shack leh. Anyway, you can just sit at the ski lodge and drink hot chocolate

Congrats to U!! Really encouraged to see more & more PCOS pple got preggie.
I not only hv PCOS, I've endometriosis & adenomyosis. My cycle is rather regular: 28-30days. Tried for 5 cycles but all failed. Tried taking BBT, OPK etc...but all don't work. I mean even though by using OPK I know when I O, but after BD still no good news.
I've stopped taking BBT 3 mths ago. Dun feel like using OPK anymore...frankly speaking quite sick of TTC now.... I find that no matter what methods I try, I still cannot conceive. Though I managed to conceive 3 yrs ago....that time I also blur blur strike one. Now I juz leave it to fate....

Thks for your encouragement. I think I've mood swings! Sometimes I tell myself to give up & bo chap liao. But sometimes I tell myself to leave it to fate. And other times, I tell myself not to give up & must continue to try & try. Getting a bit siao liao.
U dun hv to worry since u went to see gynae immediately. Juz follow his advice closely. I can understand the anxiety u feeling now...u hv to have a balance diet & continue to stay happy from now on. Other things juz leave it to gynae. All the best!

hi qwer,
thanks for being comforting!! =]
relax and don't stress is good..
speaking of balanced diet, what are the things i cannot eat? Catz told me about the liang stuff, are there anything else? like eucalyptus honey can drink? cos i a bit paranoid over my food sometimes, like salted egg, century egg that kind of things can eat or not? I haven told my family so no one to turn to for this type of advice.

Hey qwer, don't worry so much lah.. I also went through the same vacillations. When you least expect it... BOOM!
ruggles, hehe.. no lah, I don't believe in liang or heaty stuff.. I just believe in not eating germy stuf!!! Just don't eat stuff that is not steaming hot lah.. listeriosis poisoning can cause miscarriage.

Sorry I was on MC on Fri, dun hv access at home. Wah those food that mentioned hor...I dun eat one leh...like what honey, century egg, salted egg etc... I dun eat them at all. When I was preggie 3 yrs ago, I only eat a balanced diet, which I usually do. And I ate a lot of vege. My hubby n I always hv this habit of juz boiling any vegetables & juz eat like that. No salt, oil or whatever seasoning. During my pregnancy I ate lots of vege & cheese, beef, milk. And cos I dun eat raw food, so I never thot of eating it lor.
Try to eat little quantity but more meals. Eg. 6-8 meals per day, each time quantity not too much. So it's like whole day you're juz eating & eating....kekee.... Also keep a small pkt of biscuits in your handbag. Hungry can eat.

No worries, slowly yah.... You're doing very well now...yes, slowly introduce a little bit more vege in your food. When I order sliced fish beehoon soup for my lunch, I'll tell the hawker to add 50cents more of vege for me. Everything starts slowly & bit by bit. After some time, you'll get used to it already. Maybe next time after u give birth, u love vegetables very much already, hee hee....

Hey Meimei.. so sorry to hear about your ectopic and mc. Must take good care of yourself yah? Put your feet up and rest more!!
qwer, good point - veggies are good!! Esp for the extra folic acid.
ruggles, good girl.. I think toward your 2nd trimester, you'll find that you need a lot of little snacks in between to keep your blood sugar up. Everytime I forget to snack, I got very giddy.
