The much awaited doctor's appointment

Period or bleeding didn't come till today, the appointment with Prof after the ET. Which is a good sign. However I didn't feel any significant symptoms except for backache and dizzy. Pening-pening start last week, and yesterday I started feeling very tired till today. So I went to clinic with Hubby with mixed feeling and uncertainties.

Arrived at HUKM around 9.15am and got no 3. Alhamdulillah. Prof arrived around 5 mins to 11am. When my name was called, I felt that my heart was beating so hard!! Suspense..Then Prof asked a few questions, did my breast hurt, sakit perut tak..My breast didn't hurt actually but sometimes rasa berdenyut2!! Then he calculated and estimated that I am in my 4 weeks. Then off to the scan table.

1 sac can be seen and when measured it is 4 weeks. However Prof asked me to take the blood test to confirm further. And the result is tomorrow. Hemm, so I am still not 100% sure that I am pregnant. This situation has put me back in unstable state of mind! Well Hubby said, kita dah berusaha, selebihnya Allah punya kuasa.

To add to my misery, since yesterday I started to feel not ok! Sakit pinggang and today rasa sakit kat perut pulak. Campur ngan pening-pening.. Arghhhh..Ya Allah, Tenangkanlah hati ini.....

Ya Allah Ya Rahman Ya Rahim, berkatilah dan rahmatilah usahaku untuk mendapatkan zuriat ini dengan kesudahan yang baik... Amin..

The One with Another Waiting Game

Today marked the 9th day after the ET. 3 embryos were transfered on Friday the 23rd July 2010. OR was done as schedule and 9 follicles were retreived. According to the report, only 8 matured eggs were ICSI-ed and Alhamdulillah 6 were fertilized.

Oocyte Retrieval

Arrived at the clinic around 8.30am. dah ada orang dalam Berkat room. So kena tunggu.Hubby punya muka dah pucat, entah apa-apa lah.Bukannya nak kena masuk OT ker..Alhamdulillah kali ni Allah mudahkan nak ambik specimen Hubby tu. After that I was quickly ushered to the day ward to change.

Yang terkejutnya, tersedar masa process dah dekat nak habis.Oouch sakit gak, heard the nurse calm me down, sikit lagi, sikit lagi. Then I heard prof cakap pasal cysts. Bila tengok report, cyst aspiration was also done, so masa tulah tersedar sikit tu. Prof also said that not all follicles dia dapat ambik sebab tinggi sangat kedudukannya. Masa rasa sakit tu bila prof try to retreived the follicles belah kiri and also t0 suck the cysts.

Altogether 9 follicles were retrieved resulted in 8 matured eggs and 1 immature.

Oh yes..the fluid in uterine cavity also disappeared. Alhamdulillah

Embryo Transfer

The ET was scheduled on Friday afternoon 23rd July. Hubby dah bertolak ke Johor on Thursday lagi. I went to the clinic with Sister R by taxi. Berdisiplin betul adik tu bawak taxi. Reached the clinic 15 mins past 3pm. Last person and memang I want to be last, so that I don't have to keluar dari OT and rest in the day ward. The last person usually dia suruh baring atas meja OT tu jer for about 1 hour. For me itu lagi baik tak payah gerak pun directly after ET tu.

Masa dalam OT tu, baru dia orang reveal the number of eggs yang fertilized. 6 embryos yang jadi! Alhamdulillah, the 1st time only 1 egg was fertilized. And thanks to Allah again, all 6 are of grade 1. 3 embryos were transfered and 3 were freezed.

The transfer was not going very well.Prof could not seem to find the opening of my cervic!! 2 kali buat baru berjaya, and it hurt!! It was indeed a very difficult transfer.I was sweating and tensed. But Alhamdulillah on second attempt, the transfer was completed. Then sebagai penutup, Prof bacakan doa.

2 Weeks Wait

After ET procedure, the 2 weeks wait began. I was bleeding when passing motion on Tuesday 27th Jul. Mula-mula ingat beeding thru vagina, but bila lap, it was actually from anal..I continued to bleed averytime buang air besar till yesterday. Alhamdulillah hari ni tak der dah...fuhh.. Syukur! I was scared and worried the whole day yesterday.

Called MAC, dia kata tak pernah berlaku lagi. Prof pun cakap the same thing bila Hubby called. If today jadi lagi, need to go to the hospital today. Alhamdulillah syukur....So next week I can actually do the home pregnancy test tu because this time I am not on HCG shot. Now I am only on Duphaston and Utrogestan.


Duphaston 3X daily orally & Utrogestan 3X daily vaginally
And if everyhing goes well, I may not be able to fast this comming Ramadhan. My appointment is on 23rd August. I am supposed to be 6 weeks pregnant at the time, InsyaAllah.

Ya Allah Ya Rahman Ya Rahim, ampun kan daku dan rahmatilah diriku dengan sebaik2 Rahmat Mu. Ya Allah Ya Rahman Ya Wahab, Engkaulah maha pemberi, maka anugerahkan daku dengan kandungan yang sihat dari embrio-embrio yang telah dipindahkan ke rahim ku Ya Allah. Mudahkkanlah urusan ku ukt mendapat zuriat ni Ya Allah... Amiinnnnn
