Dragon, I followed Dr Lim's instructions to BD and also did BD after that like 2-3 days interval. I also follow the advise to cut down cold drinks, tea/coffee etc.
Oh I also make the chicken essence, longan/red date/wolfberries to drink. That's about it.
But hor, everything is not confirmed yet until can hear heartbeat, so I'm praying very hard.
SJX - ya, should give it a try.
Really hope the rest will have news soon! Rem Dr Lim says the trick is not to give up. Try and try again! |

Kate buddy, remember to BD ya! I started take OPK yesterday. Day 10 as I detected ewcm. Turn out the OPK got positive but not as dark as the control line. So guess ovulation is around the corner.
I just did my first acupuncture with dr.zou. Overall is ok, my DH and I felt comfortable with her. My DH also did the acupuncture although he is quite reluctant.
Bambini, have u visit Dr.Zou?
SJX, is ok, ur DH and us will support you jia you! |

First time visited him, he did not ask me to do test, only 2nd time he asked me to go for blood test. But first time visit, he did ask my hubby to go for blood test.
First time only V-scan only. |

Xin,just get whatever report you have with you. No harm ma.
i guess Dr.Lim wont ask you to repeat those test which you have been tested b4 unless it is an expired one.
I showed him my DH's SA report which was done abt 9 mths ago, and he is ok with that and no repeat test.
Dont worry, Dr.Lim cost is quite transparent. |

TGIF wonderful girls! OMG! Congrats to Ayana! So happy to hear good news again in this thread. take care for now yeah and don't worry about worrying. haah. i worry alot for the first few weeks too
To the rest of the girls, how's everyone? Sorry that I didn't manage to check in the past few weeks. Been feeling rather sick but now *touch wood* better le. Oh yeah, don't worry about conceiving multiples as it's really rare even if with assisted conception. So just enjoy the BD!
sjx, im sure you will have a fruitful visit to Dr Lim. I realllyyyyyyy hope you get your wish fulfilled too!
dragonhopes, how are you??? O-ing now or soon? throwing buckets of baby dust to you!
Kate, you O-ing too? Cycle buddy as dragonhopes? Always good to have a cycle buddy to share the 2ww. hehe.
bambini, are you taking the seedless red dates? If it's really too heaty, maybe you can take it like twice a week instead of on alternate days. Always good to keep your womb warm!
I got a box of unopened blackmores conceive well pills (expires in June 2012). Any takers? Willing to let go free and will rub the unopened box on my tummy to get some baby dust on it too. haha. |

phy.. happy to see you! :>
Dragon.. CD11 is rather early. Maybe is the TCM which is adjusting your body? But nonetheless, just Wack and BD! All the best!!! How high do you raise your legs after BD? i read 1 article just now, the lady put her legs completely up against the wall/bed frame (from thighs onwards) and strike. dunno whether true or not. haha.. i usually just put 1 small pillow underneath, so this cycle i intend to try...!
SJX.. update us tomorrow after your visit to dr lim.
I told my hubby this month gone case liao cos AF is here. He just smiled and said next month try again. Feel like knocking his head. This December will be my 1 year of TTC, if still no success, i will use knife to bring him to dr lim liao .. haha.. cos im not young anymore. Wait some more will be 高龄产妇 already. sigh..
We also having some extra financial burden. cos for next 4 years need to support a family member to study overseas. So going to dr lim + another TCM for me will be even tighter. I try not to think about all these so as not to be stressed. anyway TGIF! |

Bambini,
yeah! i try to lift for a while but not too long. my bed not near to wall le, is in the middle of the room. Sometimes i will ask my DH to stand on the bed then pull my leg up...haha..hopefully they will swim down..tried for a few months and no news then i gave up.just whack and whack dont think too much.
if you find pte hospital is costly, why dont go structured hospital. u r singaporean, can get subsidy rate somemore. TCM is about S$200 per month ( 14 days medicine, 2 times acupuncture).
SJX, yes they accept credit card. Be there early. the waiting can be very long ( 1-2 hours) |

evening ladies,
my visit cost 800 plus... sweat!!!!
i think i got the full check, like pap smear, blood test, scan (out and inner)
he told me to go for plan A first, and gave me injection which I think is Gonal F, medicine is Metformin only with vit C, B12, folic acid
as for my hubby although he is not there but i brought his report over.. so he was given fit e, b12 and folic acid too..
next visit is monday for injection and wednesday for the test result i think...
impression of him.. straight to the point, no much small talk. good.
he told me my only concern is the left F.tube that all.. nothing much and hope i won't get it, it i doest will have to remove the tube. |

i am expected but somehow still heartache about it..
he told me metformin will give the side effect of slimming, u know what... i was so excited about it and told him of course i don't mind and best if he can increase my dosage wahahah..... also for Gonal F will give me side effect..
so far i dare to say the injection gave me headache and as for metformin there wasn't any effect yet as was taking it at night. |

sjx, which means he never give you clomid? Maybe now too late to give you clomid? cos I think it has to be taken like straight away AF ends.
Not so sure about TCM, but best listen to Dr la, or you can ask the TCM if its ok to mix. |

dragonhopes, got your pm! will send the box to you tmr hope can go into the letterbox. don't be stubborn yeah i say no need to return $$ means really no need. hee.. happy if the baby luck can pass on and on and on!
sjx, i actually stopped TCM medication after seeing Dr Lim. More because that I had tried TCM for 6 months le so thought of giving it a rest that's why I stopped. But I still went for my acupuncture at my TCM before O. My TCM doc said actually just have the TCM medication 2 hours apart from the western will do.
bambini, i just placed a pillow under my hips after BD and sleep after that. will also place a piece of tissue near vagina (more to avoid staining the pillow.. hee). after 1 to 2 hours, or in the middle of the night, i will remove the pillow from the hip cuz my back will feel the strain lor.
and i tot your DH had a slight change in attitude? like softened le. I bet in the past, he will just say don't stress over it?? but now he can just smile and say, let's try again. hehe.. so maybe he is also starting to feel kancheong le. anyway, jiayou!
kate! you also O earlier?? you still stand a good chance cuz you just need one healthy spermie to attack the egg!
jiayou jiayou everyone! |

dragonhopes, i did BD during 2ww. I also had a bad fall a day before I tested BFP (bad as in fall face down and kenna two big bruises on both my knees). I believe your eggie will be cushioned quite well within your womb so don't worry yeah! just rem to take your favourite LRD and chicky essence. hehe. I long time never take LRD le. maybe should make some tonight. |

Hi dragon,
I'm trying to find the best timing to eat the medicines. Am still taking metformin n I prefer to eat it at night. this leaves me with am n noon to take dr zou 's medicine. Dunno whether can or not. Of cos no more 'time' to eat the supplements. Personally I really dun like to eat so Many kinds of things lei. But no choice.
I Will go to dr zou this sat again. Prob for acupuncture. But will visit dr lim first. |

hi all, thanks for all the encouragement... everytime come here sure feeling good one! bcos here got very positive aura... hahaha...
mummy phylee, hope as u say, BD once is good enough if the timing and sperm is right one! heehee... cant wait to know ur 3 precious gender, hopefully is a mixed, wow.... think oni felt so happy liao.
oh.. mummy Ayana, good to see u back... how's everything? look like u r doing fine wor... hahaha... be calm for everything and all thing will be smooth... dun worries too much, i am sure with Dr Lim ard, ur baby will stick tight tight on u, heartbeat strong till u can hear it, hahaha...
Dragon, a sudden drop in temp for a day may be good sign, if it return back to high temp next day, good news! implantation occurs. hopefully we can make it this time round. anyway i got no signal at all this round, same as last round, no cramps no sore nipple, nothing at all, dunno is my radar got problem or wat, since last cycle till this cycle, nothing special happen on me? am i suppose to be glad as i got no pain at all leh?
Bambini, thanks! i will fingercross for dragon n u too.. u cd4, i DPO 5 today, wah... CD9 then see Dr Lim meh, not CD 7/CD8 meh, i remember my last cycle is CD8 go back see him, then jab Gonal F leh? this time round i work on natural, bcos when Dr Lim is back, i Already CD11, missed the boat liao, so must try on my own this cycle. u lucky arh, Dr Lim is around when u start a new cycle. Luck will always be with u!!! jia you...
SJX, how r u? dun worry, leave all to Dr Lim, he will help u to solve all ur problem, heehee... if he mentioned not to mixed chinese tcm and western treatment, then better dun mixed lor, if u think Chinese tcm will increased ur chances then u may carry on, bcos, wat is most important is ur comfortable level. if u think chinese TCM and Dr lim may give u more chances to conceive then just do it, but remember wat phylee advise u :have the TCM medication 2 hours apart from the western will do. Good Luck and take care!
Where is ginger today? how r u? mummy ginger? tummy shown???? hahaha... take care! |

Bambini, i did ask other chinese sinseh before, she said 2 hours interval will do. so if you are ok to take, just take lo! like kate say, so long u r comfortable with it then ok
Kate kate, yeah! work indeed quite stress but remember we are here to support you. not your radar problem la, i rather dont have any symptoms. i keep telling myself, so early have those symptoms meaning i have to suffer for another 9 months haha..
Lilian, welcome welcome. d21 injection? you are in plan C(IVF)? i took folic acid, conceive well, chicken essence, egg whilte and brazil nuts daily. lolzz..seems like i am busy eating those food and medicine whole day long. i usually take chicken essence in the morning,conceive well at noon after lunch, LRD at night, egg white as my dinner, 2-3 brazil nuts as titbits. i guess i have a very cold body, taking so many heaty stuff but i still dont feel heaty. |

Morning Ladies,
Went to see TCM, she didnt give me any herbs or medicine for this 2 weeks.
But she gave me for my 2WW, as she said the injection Gonal F will thin the lining so she wanna ensure during then my lining is good enough to support
she also told me the western and her herbs has to taken 2 hours apart.
I will be taking chinese herbs bah, since my TCM kinda gave me the confidence that there is no crash |

dragonhopes, ask you arh, is your letterbox those that can open from the back? As in the postman can open the whole big door from the back to put in the letters rather than slotting through the slot? The Conceive Well box seems rather big to go through the slot. Or maybe if you don't mind, I open up the box and mail the pills at least it's flatter?
Lilian, welcome to this thread. I read that brazil nuts is good for implantation so I ate them during 2ww (at night) but I wasn't consistent with it. Do share the brazil nuts with your DH too as it's good for their spermies too! I got my brazil nuts from bugis (2nd floor of the hawker centre next to the Guan Yin Temple)
Here's my schedule:
Pre-O -
AM: Folic acid/ Metformin
PM: Conceive Well (after dinner)
Post-O -
AM: Bottled chicken essence on alternate days (before going to work) I sometimes drink New Moon or Brands and sometimes drink those with cordyceps.
AM: Folic Acid/ Metformin
PM: Conceive well/ LRD (on alternate days)
For TCM medication, my sinseh did suggest to have them after lunch so we have more time throughout the day to digest the herbs. Some people might have difficulty sleeping if they take it at night. Mine was in powder form so what I did was to mix them all into a small container a day before and bring them to work the next day to drink after lunch.
sjx/ kate: I think maybe can know the gender by this month end (about 15+ weeks?). If not will wait till the detailed scanning in mid Oct. I hope they are mixed too but as long as healthy, im happy enough le! |

yeah i aso dint noe can take mc. but be careful if ladies taking such mc, cause it'll be obvious that you're seeing a gynae, esp if you need to submit. if pregnant, then not so bad. but if not pregnant, ur boss mite easily get suspicious. cause will put clinic name, then will have the doctor's details there as well, so if boss go n google, can easily know that dr lim is a fertility dr, and not any normal gynae.
kate> actually.. we dint felt much.. haha.. cause we couldnt tell the hands n legs.. its like.. one patch of black ting.. even if the dr point it out, aso canot tell de.. oni can tell the head and body apart.
lilian> Plan C is ivf. folic acid should be taken as soon as you're starting to ttc, its to prevent birth defects, as long as you r ttc-ing. chix essence is to be taken during the 2ww to keep your womb warm. LRD is longan red date drink, also to take during 2ww. |

Regarding MC, think if you work in those bigger organizations, MC just submit to HR only, no need to clear immed, should be fine hahah.. Yah, perhaps not too often la, so office will not get suspicious.
Kate: yah yah carebear shine on you! Was there on Monday to scan and Dr Lim says the waterbag is 7mm. Going back to scan again this Sat... |

ayana> i continued to take chix essence, my tcm instructed me to. cause dr lim gime duphaston n medolin, medolin tcm say clashes with chinese herbs. so the oni ting he instruct is to make my own chix essence. drink twice a wk until wk 7. then wk 8 onwards, drink once a wk. LRD i stop already, cause i read from other threads, like canot drink in first trim.
