Dos ad Donts during 2WW

[Dandelion]

Hi Ladies,

I'll be going for my ER on Wednesday and ET on Friday. Following that will be the scary 2WW.

The doctors have advised me against climbing stairs but my room is on the 3rd floor so I'm expecting myself to be trapped in the room for at least a week. The thought of it is freaking me out.

I'm planning to watch drama and read but dun think that can occupy me for the whole week. Appreciate if someone can share what you did during your 2WW. Kindly also share what to avoid during this period. TIA. :tlaugh:

Hi, I'm with Dr SF Loh from KKH. I have 3 embbies frozen too! When do you plan to do fet? Did Dr Sadhana advise natural or medicate fet?

The address for Dr Zou is correct. She will prescribe different TCM during different cycle of mth to take them every morning and night. The TCM taste really terrible! She recommend to go acupunture 2x every wk but she be on going on leave from 19-31Dec. I been with her so far for only 1mth.

Dr Loh didn't give any reason for the failure except it is a chemical pregnancy. He asked if my menses is regular & then plan me to do natural fet after cleared 2 cycles.

As I had only had 5 embbies due to short stimulation stage (7 days) and they were fertilised through ICSI. My 2 embbies (grade3 & 4) had assisted hatching done due to thick shell. We asked Dr Loh is it because of the thick shell that we couldn't conceived naturally for years and he advise it depends on the hormones. He didn't say anything about changing diet either.

Anyway, I wasn't ready to start after Nov menses so decided to go Dr Zou & try out traditional chinese medicine first. Dr Zou mention my blood circulation not good & ask me exercise more. From my bbt chart, she said my bbt temp after ovulate is not high enough, it could be the reason why I couldn't hold the pregnancy.
