Thanks for the reply. Was a bit paranoid that it might be ectopic cos the tugging n pulling is always felt on the right side. Trying not to think too much negative. Sigh...

I think so long as you do not have excruciating cramps that leave you in cold sweat and brown spotting, I think it is most likely not ectopic.

 

[papercIip]

Or you can try another tcm at marine parade...tangshan medical dr que. Good brewed herbs for follicle and lining.

I went there before. The doctor doesn't like to talk. Always do the pulse thing, then proceed to acupuncture. He didn't do proper recording when I last visited him. So I stopped seeing him

Ya he doesn't talk much but I also don't like to talk much so we click maybe . Was successful with him twice. The herbs helped with lining n follicle. Tats the reason.

 

[Celestialbaby]

Brown spotting started yest n now. V light n little. Hope and pray it's beanies implantation into mummy . Abit constipated also. Heaty I guess.

I drink prune juice on some days to help w constipation problem. Also if you are drinking longan red date water, don't add longan if you feel you are heaty. Only add longan on alternate days or longer interval. Try to also take more fruits. Sounds like a good sign for you.

[Sonique2001]

When can we start HPT that should be able to detect HCG? How many days post transfer?

Shud be from 10dpo I guess.

Does anyone know which brands of HPT can detect 20mIU/hcg? Clear blue is 50mIU.

 

[littlemonkies]

I believe Clear blue digital can detect at 25... the ultra expensive one

 

[tsf0205]

i love your spirit! thank you too. i have been going through a lot same as everyone here. Been pessimistic past 4 years since the last cycle i had miscarriage of triplets. I even quit trying and even dismiss the thought of IVF. But recently I gave myself another chance and right now i had my first ultrascan and medications. I wish everyone all the best of lucks here.

Hi, I myself also did 4 cycles and have not succeed. Both hubby and I have serious fertility issues...feels hopeless, really. I too like spinsterella, I have severe endo. I believe if she can BFP, I can one day too if I keep trying. Only thing is whether finances can cope with the high cost...

Dear sisters, I would like to seek your views. My DH stopped tcm recently and his count, motility dropped drastically (fail). He is just resuming tcm and seeing a urologist. Dr tan HH says we can start our cycle in dec, in fact I have booked it. Do u all think I should go ahead? The cycle I did previously , DH has very good counts, but my cycle still fail.

Thanks littlemonkies , yeah that one is expensive!

I'm 11dpt2dt, what about you?

 

[Celestialbaby]

I'm 11dpt2dt, what about you?

I'm 8dp6dt.

 

[Sonique2001]

I'm 8dp6dt.

oh since yours is 6dt, perhaps is about time you can try. When did you back out this morning, is no harm trying if you have many sticks

When's your Bt?

 

[Sonique2001]

Tested today. Clear negative. Haiz.. now regret testing.

 

[towkayneo]

Tested today. Clear negative. Haiz.. now regret testing.

Maybe try 1-2 days later to get a more confirmed answer?

 

[Sonique2001]

Tested today. Clear negative. Haiz.. now regret testing.

Is ok don't worry about it! Maybe HCG levels not high enough yet. There's nothing to regret la! Try again in few days time...

 

[Sonique2001]

Tested today. Clear negative. Haiz.. now regret testing.

The first time I bpf I tested on day 15 also negative then very very faint line on day 17. Every body is different so some may get confirmed result earlier than the others. It depends on the speed of HCG produced too. So don't worry! No Sweat!

Ya, sometimes, the embryo is naughtier, prefer to keep the mummy in suspense... I remember the excitement and exhilaration when I 1st saw double lines on 8DP4DT. Still remember v clearly cos it's one of my milestones!

Mine is both female and male factor also.
BFP will happen to you too! Must believe that you can do it! That one day you will have a little one in your arms. *big hugs*

You just need one good sperm and one good egg. But if you feel that it's better if you wait, then you should.

I found a preggie stick n i did just 5mins ago... seems like i also gonna be an old student here. Haha... btw do i have to hold it under urine for 5sec as instructions say?

 

[Sonique2001]

If you are using clear blue, yes hold under urine for 5 secs until you see the strip turned pink ( that means fully absorbed), then wait 1 min for the result.

Isn't your Bt today?

 

[patn]

They will call me at 1pm later for results.
I came back n found a stick inside toilet so might as well use it haha... i didnt hold it for 5sec but once it turn pink i wait 1min. Its single line

Don't ponder too much, just wait for the results. Nothing is confirmed until the result is out.

Don't be disheartened. Wait for the BT result, it's more accurate. Try to distract yourself.

 

[patn]

Ok sonique and spinsterella... to distract myself... I'll go take a nap. Hahaha... was dozing off in the car when back from BT.

You gals take care and have a good lunch ahead!!

 

[Sonique2001]

Yes! Coming here is a good distraction that's why you see me here so very often! I'm way way too distracted! Lol

Dear sisters, wherever stage u are, rem to stay positive, keep hoping & never give up!
Sharing some inspirational quotes

• End is not the end, in fact E.N.D. is "Effort Never Dies" and if you get NO in an answer, then remember No is "Next Opportunity". Always be positive!
• "When the world says 'Give Up', Hope whispers "Try one more time."
• Fertility may have challenged us, but we are stronger because of it. The baby is in the making. Have faith.

Jia you!

All the best to you @Yokoe . This will be the bfp cycle. Go for it

 

[papercIip]

I visited Dr Zou Yu Min last evening. Both me and husband felt more comfortable with a female sinseh than the previous sinseh. I forgot to bring my medical reports. So those seeing her for the first time, remember to bring all your medical reports to show her. My acupuncture starts this Friday, doing twice a week, for at least 2 months.

 

[papercIip]

Other than menopur, what will be the next jab with higher dosage? The sinseh said I didn't response well to menopur as for my age, I should stimulate more eggs than just one successful egg left. My KKH doctor also said my response shouldn't be like this. Having just one egg sounds very bad. Sinseh said kkh will change my medication for the next IVF cycle. I don't know other than menopur, what is the next higher dosage?

I am also seeing dr zou. My last ivf cycle with kkh- was on gonal f + menopur 450 max. Only achieved 1 egg too. Both dr zou and kkh dr tan confirmed that i didnt respone well to both the jabs. Thus, my next ivf cycle next month, dr tan is going to change to puregon for me. Hopefully able to stimulate more eggs.

So many types of medicine for the jab. I wondered which one is gd? seem like can only trial and error. I was on pergoveris for last ivf cycle. although got 8 embryos oso din succeed.
