Mxlo you gave your man tongkat Ali this cycle is it?
:we2biglaugh: no lei.....its just that he was on long leave (clearing the OT he got from Dec) so probably much relax bah.....and in HKG we only did once (his bday BD) cos too cold he complained and bed was abit soft. LOL. I all along thot he cannot do like 4 days in a row becos we tried last mth and by the 2nd day he pon chek liao.....:nah:

Then when we came back he was like on heat!! cannot be that 2 oysters that work so instantly!

SO our deduction is STRESS plays a big part!:elvis:

and he said to me - you know, we should take time off every 3 mths to go for a short break otherwise, very stress at work....hahahha!!

I wish we could have 6 mths annual leave and 6 mths maternity leave....:Dancing_tongue:

Littlehamster, did Dr Wu ask u to take her medicine half hr after breakfast and half hr before dinner? Did u follow her instructions?

Yes, I think u are rgt, maybe she doesn't have sufficient time to cater to acupuncture..unless very serious one then she will do like perhaps menses never come for 6mths..haha..anyway, how do u find her acupuncture? Got warm yr tummy?

My bbt keeps increasing gradually, from 36.2 to 36.5. Only striked once at 36.7. Is it suppose to be like that??

Lynn, Dr wu just instructed me to take at those 9am and 5pm timing. Doesn't matter before or after dinner.

Is it because you have ovulated ? Why not show us your chart?

Lynn, the assistant dispense med say take after food.. just in case some ppl has gastric issues i guess. sometimes i will just snack abit before eating the meds cos i got history of gastric.

her acupuncture quite ok ba.. she got put the warming lamp on tummy.. i got one needle on top of my head too. the one in between my thumb and index finger aches so badly.. even now i occasionally will rub rub there abit also hurts.. this is where it acup point that links to the womb.. i think im very weak.. :X that time i got cold uterus, i am guessing my condition did improve abit as dont feel that extremely cold and i did some changes to my lifestyle too. last time my fingers and feet are like ice, i often joke to my colleagues that im cold blooded lol

hows ur bbt chart? u using fertility friend? u can get the url link and paste for us to see. mine is at my signature.

MXLO: the guy needs 3mths to generate! every 3mths for a holiday sounds good haha

Thks dragontail n littlehamster..oh I have not use the chart yet.. I just jot dw on a book and passed it to Dr wu to view. I think I have not ovulated yet as I don't see a constant 36.7 temp throughout. Yes Dr Wu also said im more towards cold side. Advised me not to take strong tea. Thats why I still continue to take red date tea so that it can warm my tummy. Can sleep better also.

Oh this Sat, I don't think I will see Dr Wu as I want to go to hospital to repeat my blood test, if still got prob, then I can get it treated asap. I suspect this hormones stop me from ovulation. Btw , will Dr wu prescribe 2 wks medicine if she is away for long holidays??

Lynn, other than those, u can soak ur feet in warm water before u sleep, and wear socks keep warm. my foo soak i bought those foot soak herbs for detox ones, i think normal water does fine. u can add salt to your foot soak if got smelly feet hehe.. my hubby also like the foot soak, everytime i soak finish i will pass him let him detox

2 weeks yup. this round i requested her for 3 weeks med, plus 1 week of old med, i only see her after cny...

Littlehamster, u soo cute ! thks for yr wonderful advise.. wah u are so diligent! I was advised by Dr Su to wear socks but I am lazy so tried once only. Recently realised my feet super cold! hands also super cold!! maybe thats why i couldn't sleep well? I ever tried using osim to do reflexology but end up couldn't sleep .. maybe i shd do early instead of at ngt.

oh if u ask for 3wks med, then the med are usually the same rgt? I mean she won't kw how to adjust to yr present needs like pre O or after O medicine rgt?

Hi Dragon, ohhh sigh! I am on 3-mth cycle of clomid and really hoping this is good enough to work. We passed all the tests at the gynae so we guessed our main problem could be ovulation dates messed up or freq of BD too too too low. (YA really too low)

Oh wow, IVF is a big move. How much does it cost? Where you doing it at?

Today is cd13.

Based on my past record usually I'll ovulate on cd14




My sinseh made me a stomach pouch for me to put on abdomen when sleeping.
She says the herbs inside helps to warm the womb.


I took it one step further and add the heat pad to heat it up so the pouch becomes warm and very comfortable

Soursop that's very dark liao. Don't pee anymore else more confused. Haa. You can take a break tonight and bd tomorrow night and one more time on sat or sun.

Risty, I'm not decided yet on ivf (kinda irony right as I'm going to see an ivf specialist in Feb). I mean it has not been what I wanted. So just hear what the doc shares about my condition and decide from there. Will be at kkh. Should be 12k plus minus. Singaporean below 40 do get substantial subsidies.

No problem Lynn, We share info with each other and learn. Btw, also remember to blow hair dry before sleeping, drink hot drinks, No cold and raw food (eg sashimi ), don't let Aircon blow direct on ur back of neck n shoulders n lower back. . Oops I almost told u everything wrong that I have done already Lol. Missed eating sashimi awww

I see I see..thks littehamster. Yes, sometimes it is difficult to follow exactly.. esp when come to cold desserts. I love chendol so much esp desserts with coconut milk.. got to abstain, sigh! Yes rgt now, cant even take sashimi, I love japanese food, got lesser choice without sashimi.

Btw, if I ask for 2 more wks of medicine from Dr wu, she normally will give same type of powder rgt? If my menses come, still need to take or not?

Mummygirl, better dont take barley as it is cold and not gd for the womb. For red date tea, you can get those seedless red date from herbal shop as it is less heaty. Just grab a handful usually I put ard 35 red dates with dried longan ( depend on how sweet u want it to be) usually is a small portion as it is also heaty, wash it and cook with slow cooker for abt 2hrs. I add abt 500ml of water. I also add few slices of old ginger into the cooker. This was thought by Dr su. If u scared too heaty, boil ginger for a while not throughout the 2hrs.

Drink less frequent during summer time if not u will hv sore throat. Usually I drink 2 to 3 times per wk. I feel that it makes me look more radiant, rosy cheeks, haha..

Depends on which part of the cycle u are at. U just started with Dr Wu? Duno if She will give extra med ornt. Cos I with her for some time, She can estimate What kind med from previous for each part of cycle and compare with bbt charts from history. When I went I came period and stop previous Med, left ard 1week of Med from last cycle. She gave me after menses med 1week + pre-o Med 1week + advice me to continue eat last cycle post-o Med. She also gave me extra 1week after menses Med incase af witch comes Next cycle, if preggy the post-o Med shld cover till Next visit get from her again. But I hope af No come!! Then I waste 1week Med Hahaha
