Hello, ladies,

I hope you guys don't mind that I join your link so late here. Since my first ivf, I have two subsequent failed ivf attempts. Both cycles were abandoned because I was a poor responder. If you guys don't mind, I would love to gain some supports from you guys. I am currently on a break ...

Paula,

:D , Actually, I was thinking if I shake hard enough, I can shake a few extra follies loose to get more fertilized eggs. Also, they can stick as I shake! Haraay!!!!
Wow, you have a Shih-Tzu. They are so cute. We have 2 cats instead.
It's been gloomy here. We called it June gloom. The ...

Hello, Kelly,

Hi, Paula,

Great, the sun finally came out for you. I am sending an extra sunshine your way. :D We have not decided on where to go for our road trip yet. Yesterday, it was overcast here and the temp cooled down a bit.
I am going to a belly dancing convention this weekend. I can't wait. I don't ...

Hi, Tracii,

Thank you so much for the encouraging words. (with a bear hug!) I think, in a way, you are much more optimistic than I am. I am so glade you wrote back :D .
I had to do some convincing for my DH to go too. He was not comfortable taking some herbs not know what they were.
Yes, the ...

Hi, Paula,

I understand how awful and hurt can be when we see other pregnant ladies or new borns. We need to believe that we can be pregnant and will be pregnant. Just keep up your faith and spirit. You will be there soon. While you are waiting for your next IVF, you and husbands might want to ...

Gbell,

Sorry to hear your news! I did spot a little right after I learned my bad news, which was 14 days post transfer. The volume was very low. I asked my clinic. They told me it was normal. Because of the hormones, the system is a little off. It will go back after 1 or 2 cycles. Good luck! Again ...

Paula,

Sorry that you are feeling depressed. Please try to cheer up :) , Sending lots of love and hugs :wink: .... Hopefully you are feeling better now.
It has been hot here. It seems to be around 100 degree F. The weather is a little unbearable here!
Yes, some did say that aspirin may cause ...

Hi, Tracii,

Thank you so much for the info. I will definately take you up on your offers. I guess the Chinese Herbalist whom I went has a long track record of getting couples pregnant. He told us that a lot of people go to him when the western medicine has failed. He has many letters and a lot of ...

Hi, Kelly,

I am glade that you are feeling better, too. :) I hope you will be able to get some answers from them. My follow-up appt is not until June 21 because he is going on vacation a week prior and there are no available appts. :( It's okay though. I think he might suggest to us to look into ...

Sara,

Thank you so much. Please keep me in your prayers. I need all the prayers I can get. Also, please take care of yourself. I am not sure how far along you are. I heard that you need to get pass 15-16 weeks being pregnant to get out of the danger zone. Hopefully, tou have passed that already ...

Hi, Paula,
I am doing much better today. We had a BBQ with a few friends yesterday. Yes, the weather here is just absolutely wonderful. The sun is out and warm. They say it's going to get hot soon. Raining is just not fun. :( I will send our sunshine to your way! :)
About the aspirin, my RE started ...

Hi, Tracii,

:D Congrad on your pregnancy! Thank you so much for your kind words and advices. . It has been a long, hard road, but I am hanging there. About the Accup/Chinese herbs, I have heard that one of the reasons for infertility is that the bad blood pooled in the uterus. This was just ...

I had a couple of rest and did absolute nothing. I just felt so awful. Yestday, my husband encouraged me to get out of the house. We went to drove to the beach area. It felt good to not to think about for a while.
I am slowly trying to gain some sort of perspectives and hopes. I think that I need ...

:( Yes, my ER suggested doing the ICSI from the very beginning. Since my FSH was just barely below the cut-off number, my ER told me that I probably would not be a good responder to the stimulation. Since I was 36 (not too old yet), he is optimist that I can be pregnant by IVF. In addition, my DH’s ...
