Today is my CD14. Observed start of stretchy clear CM. Not much but looks like I might be O-ing soon (observing CM is my best bet, from experience). I usually get that a week before I O-ed. If it's so, it's comforting to know my cycle is tuning back, regardless all the messed up hormones lately. But we have to practice abstinence this month :p

BFP=big fat positive. One of those hundreds of acronyms in fertility topic!

Ah... that's might be the reason why the doc didnt pick it up. A line is a positive line (I strongly believe so). It wont just turn pink without hcg.

Congrats congrats congrats! Your first?

Hello!

Not sure of this is a sstupid question but is it possible to see dr loh as a private patient?

Doc gave me florxine and something like tenxane for my dear. Erm, his pills are in his car (so he can remember to take) so I don't have the exact name.

Joymummie - could you describe a little on the pre pregnancy tests that dr loh did (before you got preggers)? I am just trying to gauge if my second gynae was thorough or was he just normal. Cuz if he is just normal that means I really kena ripped off by my first gynae!

@dragontail - seems like second one is better. But he is erm a bit old...

@suoerwomancgy & @littlehamster - I just pm the both of you. Eh I not sure if I should publicly mention which doc I went since I haven't had a success story so not sure if I should put in this forum. Hahahah I just don't wanna be seen as endorsing - yes I can be a tad bit paranoid :p

Fiona, some people do get their preg symptoms real early. Really hope you can bring us confirm-chop good news so that you can come back and spread baby dust to us.

Littlehamster, this month no touchy touchy. Have to wait past the coming AF first and see what my sinseh says.

Blurprincess, it's always like that... when we like to have that something, your surroundings pop them up but none is yours. :p Murphy's law maybe. Since you've been trying for 2 years, ever thought of IVF?

If I'm not wrong, Dr Loh runs his pte clinic at TMC right? You can google about him and they are mostly good words. Man of few words though. Think he's the god of IVF here in SG, among other good comments on his expertise.

Dragontail:its impt To be with a gynae u comfortable with.

Fiona: I remember for the first 3-5 days after missing my menses , I test negative till I think the 5th day . And gp recommend to go for pregnancy kit that is in case type one as the result will be one accurate , I am not sure what's the actual name for it but the the dip type of kit . It's in case form then u have to collect ur urine then drip into the kit.

Littlej: yes, dragontail is right ... Dr loh has his own clinic at Thomson medical centre now, he is no longer in kkh already. If I remember correctly , I did a check and scan for vagina and urine test and blood test . And my hubby did the sperm test . Then the doc will advised us on the ovalution window . Usually will advised us to try +-2 days the ovalution day but my hubby n I very kiasu , we started trying +-8 days of ovalution day . Hope these info helps :)

Hello everyone!

Goody lucky fiona! Wish I'm in your shoes *grins*

Well - me and my dear did the checks. I guess it's just me being OCD. Just wanted to make sure we're all clear from the beginning - I mean *touch wood* - I had colleagues whose husbands went to do sperm checks then found out the analysis not very good. And then I also had friends whose womb also not very good. So for me, I told better be all clear. But that's just me.

Oh - I researched on Dr Loh and TMC. Dr Loh sounds good but erm TMC sounds a bit messy and a bit profit-driven like advocating scientific means? Just my personal opinion as I was reading the reviews and on TMC website.

I mean, I'm not against IUI or IVF.. I think they are necessities if and only if one has been trying the natural way and really cannot then go for the scientific ways. My friends and I were talking about it - that gynaes nowadays are now actively pushing for scientific ways. Like my original gynae - When I collected my HSG films the other day - the nurse told me doctor's advise is to do IUI this cycle and I was like.. erm.. let me try natural this month first can.. Then I scooted to see the other gynae. Hahahaha!

Ok - I gotta BD this Sunday, Tues, Thurs, Sat, Mon. Then no more BD after. That's what 2nd gynae said. my dear hear already wanted to faint - saying intensive workout then complete blackout???

:p
 
I'll be trying for a 2nd baby soon....somewhere in June. Wanna hv a horse baby :)

My son is coming 14 months old.

Jia you to all mummies who are TTC :)
