Hi undiscern,
Oh I see.. Duphaston is also hormones. Your gynae will be in the best position to advice.
How's your wife now? How many weeks? Is she having spotting or had history of miscarriage?

Hi yoko,
I continued to shower after DnC
. Of course, with warm water. The weather in Singapore is different from where the tradition of cannot shower comes from. In this hot and humid weather, it's ok to shower.
You can start drinking the red dates longan now. You can drink chicken essence daily too.
Take good care ya?

hi lyn, no spotting, but got history.
gynae said hcg not increasing by at least 66% but i did a search and found out that 66% is just a result based on a very small sample did by Daya and Kadar. according to a recent research, with a much larger sample, the level is adjusted to 53%, by Dr Barnhart, a prof at Uni of Penns.

Hi undiscern,
Wow... You are very knowledgeable and resourceful. Are you in the research line?
Perhaps your wife's situation is good, hence no need for injections.
Does your wife need to do bloodtest for HCG every alternate days or weekly?

How are ya today? Today is a bright, sunny day
But I am not in my best today. Perhaps it's my hormones playing tricks on me. I did not sleep very well and now very tired.

Poor lyn. I've not been sleeping well for 3wks. Cos hb not around and me alone at home Miss him so much. My eyes had been twitching, prob from lack of sleep. But so happy that I'll be seeing him tomrw morn. Can't wait to fly there now.
Lyn, try your usual method of listening to soothing music, can prob 'calm' your hormones down.

yup, me in research line. only did the hcg test two time to see how much is the increase. was abit worried when dr says increase not 66%, but after i found the info, I feel better abit. hopefully that piece of research will be adopted by local gynaes. which i think will becos it has been published in a top medical journal recently.

Hi coral,
You must be counting down by the hours now to see your hubby again!
Enjoy your trip and take lots of pictures ok?
Hi undiscern,
Wow.. you did a search on the medical journals. Are you in the medical research? I am in engineering
Recently, I think it's last month, there's a conference in America. There's an interesting research on the hormones jabs during pregnancy. It's a 20 years research and the conclusion is that the hormones jabs does helps in stabilising a pregnancy.
That's what my gynae told me
. I only listen but did not follow

Thanks ladies. I'm going to log off soon and head home for last minute packing and off to airport later tonite.
Lyn, the thing abtr the jab, what I realise is the older gyneas believe in them and the younger gyneas keep telling me research does not support the effectiveness of the jabs. Will prob do some research on that soon for I'll need to decide if I'll go thru those jabs again...The side effects really horrible.
Take care all. And enjoy the holidays.

Hi Wendy...
Wow... You are resourceful... I seldom visit the TTC thread already. There are many new gals whom I do not really know. The old TTC gals have moved to MSN. kekeke... So we usually MSN and chat about anything during the day. hee...
What I can say is, try to relax and dun plan too much and getting pregnant will be an easy task. Meanwhile, also try to get your health to the best first
.
For my second pregnancy, I went through lots of ups and downs trying to get pregnant. That was a stressful and frustrating period, and also a strain on relationship with hubby. That time, I could not get pregnant and I needed clomid to help me. Now I am more relaxed and focussed on other things and getting my and hubby's health to the best, and getting pregnant is not difficult
. I hope keeping it will be easy too
.
If you feel stressed joining the TTC thread where everyone are comparing and talking about nothing else but TTC, do avoid it for a while till you are mentally more prepared to read about the ups and downs there.
It's easy to say relax. The doing part is not easy at the beginning. But gotta start somewhere...
I wish you good luck!
Baby is really a gift of God.
Dun give up
I have a cousin who tried for 4 years and now have a very cute little boy...

Hi Wendy,
My gynae adviced me to test one week after AF overdue
. If you test 3 days after AF due, using first morning urine, you should be able to see a clear positive

Dear ladies,
I'm now surfing net at Community Club. 2.30pm will log off.
I'm still on MC. Back office 2nd week of Nov. Went Laparoscopy on 26 Oct to remove 2 cysts in ovary. Gynae said must do immediate cos quite critical, said may rupture anytime! Now ok, can walk normal but still pain a bit.
Pls dun worry for me, I'm ok. Will write more when I back office, or when I hv the chance to pop by the Community Club again!

hamasaki, my hol so so. See some really beautiful places and ejoyed wine tasting in Chianti and Venice is really a special experience. But also encountered some discrimination that spoils my hol. However,I won't say all Italians are bad, I met a few nice ones too. Guess my mood also affected by my AF, cuase me to have fever during trip. But then Hb say, looking on the positive side, we know that my system is normal since AF so on time. On the whole, I'm glad I went, seen the places I want and a nice time for the two of us ever since the ordeal a few months back. But we couldn't find any unforgettable food there, so I had to cook pasta for us during the wkend to satisfy our palate.
Dear ladies,
I'm back here again! Thanks for all your concerns...I'm well. Now at cyber cafe again! My gynae suggested me to go for 4 mths jab to shrink and dry up the existing blood clots on my intestine. I'm still considering. Next appt end of Nov will then decide.
Btw, how's things for everybody? Hope you all are well too!!

Hi all,
I haven't been in for a long time. I would like to know how long after D&C that you gals start trying again... I have a dilemma now..Going for holiday next month and menses will come around that time. was intending to take med to delay it slightly but heard from gynae it does have some effect on ovulation. My next menses will be my 3rd cycle - where I can start trying again... any advice?

Hi GT,
I think it varies from cases to cases and gynae to gynae. After my first m/c, I was told to wait for 3 months. After my second m/c, I was told to wait for 2 months. The most important thing is you gotta be healthy again
As long as you are both mentally and physically prepared, it should be fine
Enjoy your holidays and dun worry too much
I think I am a little confused of what you really want. You wanted to take medication to delay menses, and at the same time you wanna try for baby??? I thought you can only choose one??

For the Japan trip, just take it as it comes
It can get very stressful just concentrating on TTC.

Hi GT, I knew I would have my AF during my Italy trip, but I'd rather go thru the trouble than eat the med incase it disrupt my system and I know I'll have my AF again during this month when I go KL, but I think I'll stillbear with the inconvenience than take the chance with the med. I think the little inconveneince is worth it than the risk of disrupting our system if we wish to TTC.
Hamasaki, my fever subside after 3 days, I usually get feverish when I have my AF.
Lyn, you preggy? I keep my blog neutral. Never write about my downs, mostly it's a reflection of daily life than my inner most feelings. I only write abt those here. where I know the people understand what I mean.
I'm thinking of trying soon, but very stress at work, so in a fix now. But I know there'll never be a good time, it's depends on how I prepare myself and how I manage my time. I know hb miss bb. During our trip one nite he suddenly told me he's thinking of Kaden. Italy is a place where yousee lots of pple pushing their bbs around in prams and we see lots of cute bb stuff. He told me he actually went to check on bb stuff before I arrive. I know he wish to have his own bbs. Me too. But can I take to pressure of getting preg will I be haunt by the past. I'm not sure. I know I want a bb, but what if...I dare not think further. I think I shan't think too much but just face things as they come else I'll never be able to walk on.
Antoher rambling session. I know you gals will bear with me. Thank you.
