(2013) ivf/icsi mummies Support group

i went for oscar at week 12.

I went for my scan every 2 weeks during first trimester.
That's too far apart for your next scan. Maybe u can book for an earlier appt.
 


Ewea I went for my 1st scanning on week 7 n sec scan will be on week 10. Yes yours seems rather long maybe u wanna double check.
 
Thanks Miracle and Sade. Went to doc today to get cough medicine that's safe for pregnancy.

Miracle - take care and rest more since u have bleeding. I also have spotting during my 1st tri. Btw I'm having twins too

Sade - I also have craving for cold drinks since I bfp. But will get cough easily so have to control. Sob sob

I suppose to go back work in Sept but just heard from my boss that my staff and the sales manager who is covering me had tendered. Think they can't take the stress when I'm not around. Like that I how to go on ML peacefully
 
Joanne Ya better control sin u will cough easily. I also ren for few months. Actually nt used to drink cold water now. Haha.
For cough with phlegm no oranges.
Don't worry too much abt ur job. Sin now u r having twins better concentrate on yourself n twins. Cos it's nt easy. Think the co will plan n work out an arrangement.
 
Joanne, do take care yah! I just did my oscar and results came back good! Bleeding is tapering off, now spotting only. But since the scan shows they are healthy, i'm gg to use that as assurance!

By the way, how many weeks are u now?
 
Ewea, ur doc is Jerry chan right? Need to be alil more forceful with him. I always insist that I must scan and see dr every other wk. And eventually they will say ok. 5 wks away seems very far away.
 
Sade - yeah. Trying not to worry too much now. Don't want my bbs to feel my unhappiness :p

Miracle - I am 15 weeks now. Happy to know that u have good Oscar result

Hi all, I went for doctor's appt today, and gynae discovered no heartbeat and baby seems to stop growing.

Both hubby and I were very upset. Cos we are totally unprepared for this news. I have been getting pregnancy symptoms and feel tired easily. There is no bleeding too. Doctor says it could be due to chromosome abnormalities which could lead to pregnancy.

In any case, I am not giving up yet. Will pray hard for a miracle healing. Hope sisters here can pray for me too.
 
Joyfully, sorry n sad to hear that. Do go for a 2nd opinion. Will pray for u. Stay positive.
Don't give up.
 
Miracle good to hear abt your Oscar scan. Ya take it as assurance and don't worry too much, rest more sin u r having twins, it's not easy. Hopefully no more spotting for u soon.

Ya lor Joanne, don't worry too much cos now it's v impt as u r having twins. Must take things easy and rest more.

I envy sisters carrying twins but I know It's really not easy, so must rest well, eat nutritiously and stay happy.
 
Miracle,
Great to hear you've cleared your Oscar scan

Joanne,
How are you? Are you still having ms. At this point, whatever happen in the office not within your control, no one it's indispensable at work so focus on what's important to you now.

Joyfully,
Do go for 2nd opinion n keep positive ya
 
Eskimo - my ms much better now. Only vomit occasionally if bbs don't like the food. Trying my best to eat more now. How about u?
 
I will call to arrange earlier appt as I feel insecure n will worry how baby is doing.

Joyfully, like other sisters advised do go for 2nd opinion k be positive k hugs..
 
Babyshower, you are under subsidized n see doc at clinic C? Do you know if the doc will do scan in consultation room or will they have to arrange scan at AMC.

Babygalore, dr Jerry is away for conference so didn't get to see him today, attended by MO. They advise me to choose my gynae after 4th month when all tests have complete.
 
Chevy, Snoopy, Sade, Joanne and Eskimobaby, thanks for all your advices.

DH and I are still uncertain of what to do next. Gynae asks us to stop all support and see if can mc on its own rather than DNC. I told him I prefer the first option but am rejecting all his comments.

Really hope to see miracle.
 
Joyfully, i'm so sorry to hear about what happened. Stay strong and keep believing in your baby ok? *hugz* i know it's tough at this point of time, but we're here to provide a listening ear.

To all the other sisters here, I pray all of us will have a safe and non conplicated pregnancy. Enjoy ur weekend!
 
joanne,
for me, i still can't eat dinner. will vomit whatever i eat at dinner time... for mornings still vomit occasionally. afternoons are the best where i can eat. i really hope this passes soon.
 
Joyfully so sry to hear this! Am really at lost of words. I hope u can seek a few more gynae opinion first before cming to any decision. Gal must ve been difficult time for u n ur hubby. I hope u both can be strong. Hugz.

Ewea after converting to subsidized at kkh, my appt will be at clinic C n my scan is still at AMC clinic.
 
Whiteclover, miracle, Kikigal and babyshower, thanks for your words of encouragement.

Ya, the pain and thought of losing our precious one is really too much for DH and I to bear, cos we weren't prepared for this at all. Still hoping to find the second heartbeat. My poor DH was saying, we hope for 2 heartbeats, saw one the last scan, then down to none yesterday. He couldn't believe this is happening to us. He says how can the gynae be so sure, when he only did the scan for a while and come to the conclusion. We both felt the gynae could have handled the situation in a better way.

I had a good cry yesterday, but still can't help weeping as I write this post. But am gonna submit my situation to the higher one up there rather than taking the gynae's comments as my final report. Will pray for God's miracle healing to
revive my baby's hb. I am not giving up the fight yet.

Thank you all for your listening ears.
 
Joyfully it's v sad to hear that. Do give yourself and bb another week and do another scan. Maybe with a different gynae. Or maybe u find Angela, see what she can advise u.

Really hope that bb hb can be found on ur next scan.

Stay positive.
 
Sade, thanks so much for your comforting words.

Ya, most prob will seek 2nd opinion with another gynae next week.
 
Haven't had the chance to log in the past two days and just catching up on the posts now...

Joyfully, so sorry to hear abt what's happened. Have PMed you, dear...

JoT, good to hear that your MS has subsided. Hope u're feeling better today!

eskimo, hang in there!! MS will be over soon!

Hi everyone, ok im going to join this thread as i know more of you here than the "Apr 2013 mum" thread!!!

If you are still following icsi/ivf thread, u might hv read that i conceived naturally while resting after a failed 1st ivf fresh in
May. BT showed a Hcg reading of 485 on 8 aug. I was planning for fet in sep. think im in my 5th week now n waiting for my 1st prenatal appt with dr loh on 22 aug. Im having the same 2ww anxiety ..

May i know is everyone here still in their 1st trimester?

Pls share with me how are you getting thru 1st trimester?

This would be my 1st pregnancy if successful after tcc for 2 yrs ... N a failed ivf....
 
Welcome Tutu!!

Most ladies here are in 1st tri, while a few of us are in 2nd tri. Sade has compiled our data in a table. You can refer to the thread history for the table.

Yup, BFP is the start of a long journey. Jia you!!
 
Hi joyfully, sorry to hear about that. Have faith and talk to your baby ok? Get another opinion....Be strong gal though I know it's very hard and painful. Hugs and please take care!
 
Luvnhope, same same. Didn't realize there are different methodology. Thanks for pointing out.

Was just thinking if it would be useful to have a google documents (similar to the one used in the ivf thread) where we can all go in to update and share things like
- places to buy baby stuff
- confinement agencies
- massage contacts
- food and diet or recipes for pregnancy
- etc etc

Wat do u gals think?
 
Luv, ya me also think that I m in 2nd trimester on the start of 12week. Hehe.

Welcome tutu, congrats on your natural conception. Envy envy. Do be extra careful since u r in first trimester. Read up on what to eat or avoid and also on the facial products to avoid.

White clover it's a good idea, maybe u can start to input first n then see what else other wan to add in. But then guess its a bit too early sin most of us have not go for our detailed scan.
 
Thanks for the warm welcome! Hi Ladies, my mum said she heard too much red dates is not gd - du ( poisonous ). Any idea?
 
Tutu, never heard of too much red dates being du. But do note that there are some red dates that looks more red. These dates are most probably chemically treated to enhance the look and they taste more sour than it shld be. These dates are not gd cos may have harmful chemical, so do be careful when buying.
 
Ladies, does duphaston stop period from commencing? Im on 2x duphaston per day n wonder if my preg is not viable, would i bleed if i continue with duphaston?
 

Hope and Tutu, thanks for your comforting words.

Will cont to press on and stay positive for the sake of my baby.
