9 weeks

Pagi ni I have noticed there is some dark brown blood, yang keluar bila saya basuh u-know-where selepas buang air kecil. Agak panic, tapi saya cuba cool down sebab tamau stress. Saya bagitau husband, dia mcm relax je (dalam hati siapa tau kan). Tapi bila check panties, takde stain apa2 pun, hanya ada lepas buang air kecil tadi. 15 min kemudian husband suruh saya call clinic. I called the nurse and dia suruh datang immediately check.

Nurse tu mungkin dah sedia maklum sangat dengan 'history' saya ni yg suka spotting.

Alhamdulillah doc scan and everything seems normal. He said not to worry about it unless it is red blood, and that this happens some pregnancy and if I'm not cramping or it not bright red then, not to worry.

Btw doc gave me Proluton Depot injection, katanya nak bagi rest uterus.

Baby is now 9 weeks 1 day, ukuran CRL 21mm. Hearbeat 179 bpm. For this 2-3 days doc suruh saya byk2 bedrest.


Sebenarnya semalam saya byk berjalan, pergi KWSP la, pergi Tropicana CityMall. Hmm insaf kejap. Lain kali nak berjalan tu berpada2. Tapi syukur sgt semua normal.

Jumpa lagi :)

7 weeks

I had an ultrasound on Wedenesday (6w5d). The baby's heartbeat was detected and was at 123. Alhamdulillah, syukur sangat2. Dapat dengar heartbeat tadi menggunakan alat yang doctor pakai tu, saya lupa namanya. MasyaAllah, rasa nak menangis dengar heartbeat. Dah lama tak rasa saat2 macam ni.

Saya tau masih peringkat awal, tapi at least it's a good sign kan? I read somewhere that after hearing and seeing the heartbeat your risk of miscarriage are lower. Then after you get through your first trimester the chances are really really low.

Doakan dapat melalui semua dengan selamat sehingga bersalin ye. Amin.

sorry la tak update, sebab memang takde update pun melainkan keadaan diri yang kurang sihat skit. bukan tak sihat apa pun, biasa la mual2, tak lalu makan dan pening kepala. hmm agaknya kalau timbang badan skrg ni dah susut kot badan.

ubat setakat ni yg perlu saya ambil duphaston (ni pun kadang2 yg TERskip) dan asprin (ni lagi byk terskip sebab kena potong bahagi 4 tablet tu, leceh skit). tapi susu anmum mmg tak pernah miss lagi saya minum sebab ada org tolong bancuhkan heheh dan makan acid foilic.

12 days past transfer

Semalam saya buat UPT di rumah. Hari yg ke 11 lepas transfer. Got 2 lines dan tiba2 saya gabra dan gosok mata. Macam tak percaya dan rasa nak nangis pun ada. Terus call klinik and nurse suruh datang buat blood test hari ni.


So now, I just got my blood test result and alhamdulillah got a good news today and have jumped over here :D (tapi tak boleh, lompat dalam hati je)

At 12dp5dt my beta hcg number is 860. My doctor said that I have a really high solid number so I wouldn't need to do 2nd beta. Whatever la doctor saya tak tau nak cakap apa melainkan syukur sangat. (Last IVF cycle diwaktu ini beta hcg saya hanyalah 40!)

Saya bersyukur sangat2 akhirnya doa saya dimakbulkanNya. Sekarang saya kena jaga diri elok2, bedrest setakat mampu sampai next appointment 5 February.

Masih panjang lagi journey ini tapi saya tetap doakan semuanya berjalan lancar.

6 days post transfer

Still in waiting mode, saje rasa nak update.

1 days post transfer (dpt) : nothing at all
2 dpt : tender bbs
3 dpt :moderate cramping, tender bbs (breast), clear vaginal discharge (cvd)
4 dpt : bbs swelling; stomach pains, minor headache, cvd
5 dpt : moderate cramping, bbs sakit sangat2, cvd
6 dpt : moderate cramping, bbs sakit sangat2, cvd

Time keluar clear discharge tu memang saya asyik berulang alik ke toilet check panties. Risau sangat takut keluar kaler coklat or merah. Tapi lepas beberapa hari, I'm getting used to it. Dulu masa fresh IVF cycle keluar discharge maybe disebabkan lebihan Utregestan, at least sekarang ni mungkin sebab hormon sendri yang keluar kan.

Doakan semua selamat. Amin.

Btw, thanks to a friend of mine (u know who u are :)) for being there. I tend to 'mengadu' more to those going to similar situation di mana saya tak kenal mereka di alam realiti, but I feel like I know them forever.

FET today

Assalamualaikum semua. Saya start buat FET hari ni. Frozen Embryo Transfer.

As most of you already know, I actually was partially pregnant off of the fresh IVF cycle (low betas, no HB, no fetal pole) and had a D&C at 8-9 weeks.

I waited for 3-4 cycles after my D&C and so, here I am; on FET natural cycle. Th
ere are different between natural cycle and medicated cycle. Pls read here for your kind info.

In my case, my doctor prefers to do natural cycle FETs; meaning that I wouldn't take any meds at all. No estrogen, no progesterone, nothing.

Tapi masa nak tentu kan my ovulation day (1st ovulation day iwill be my Day-1), ada slight problem because this cycle took a longer period, 37 days. Selalunya my cycle took 30-33 days. So this cycle my ovulation is on day 24!

Camne monitor ovulation day? I use predictor test kits (OPKs). I would pee on a stick (for everyday from day 14- day 24!).
Memula hampir2 kena abandon this cycle sebab tak dapat double line. At last dapat jugak.


Lepas FET, I'm only given duphaston. And to wait for another 10-12 days for UPT, that can be done by myself. Senang kan?


The FET cycle takes almost as long, but it is so much easier and not nearly as stressful. As for success rates, the difference between fresh and frozen is so slight, and the nurse told me it's easier for some women to do a FET because it's less stress on your body, which can help with implantation.

Tak tau la kan, lain orang lain badan and hormon dia. Wish me the best ya, thanks :)

Hi

Hi :)

It's been a while since I've blogged! Dah 3 bulan bersawang blog ni kan. Just a quick update:

1. Did my D&C @ PMC on 9 September. Waited for a month (or more?) tapi still tak keluar so D&C la jawapannya.


2. Had a prolonged (not that heavy) bleeding after the D&C. I thought the point of a D&C was to get everything left out of my uterus, so I kinda worried takut ada benda tertinggal. Pergi check and my doctor said it's clear and normal. Sounded like everyone's "normal" is different eh?

3. Finally got my 1st period on 7th Oct. And got my 2nd period on 9th September. Hopefully will get my normal cycle back :)

4. My doctor said I can start my my egg/embryo transfer at the next cycle (which is this cycle). Saya rasa saya nak tangguh dulu, bagi mentally and physically prepared dulu. Tapi takut postponed lama2 quality embryo makin menurun pulak kan?

Tu saje nak update :) Saya noticed blog saya masih dilawati (walaupun tak ramai tapi still ada yg menjenguk kan?) walaupun tak berupdate.

Thank you for visiting, sesekali tinggal la komen ye? =)
