    gynae follows standard procedure! if fail go IVF!

    I also can be gynae like that.

    anyway, we are examined to be heathly couples but for whatever reason can't get pregnant after 2 yrs so we went for IUI

    any advise?

    I would suggest u go for 2nd opinion....sometimes stress could affect fertility too....perhaps take a break from all these fertility treatments, go for a

    trip and try to conceive naturally...

    I duno hw old u r.....and whether time permits for u to try naturally....bt if time dun permits, go for a 2nd opinion....

    Dr SF Loh from KKH or Prof Wong from NUH are both top notch fertility docs...perhaps u can give a try and decide wat to do next?

    Hope this helps!

    Condition of leather on sofa is quite bad but it's recliner mechanism is still working.

    Don't think salvation army will want it, condo management say they do not provide disposal service for furniture, so have to find my own way of disposing it. sigh

    See if u can get any blangadesh workers ard...give them $30 to $50 and they will be v glad to do it for u....they might also wan to keep the sofa in their quarters?

    Heard before tt the TV will "suck" all our energy over the nite & make us v tired..not sure abt it...anyway I face my TV to the toilet instead of the bed...and I wonder whether there is any difference btw CRT and LCD?

    Must see whether the leak is 24 hrs or only when got ppl shower, use aircon, use basin, wash floor etc. common problem is when the aircon guy install the aircon drain pipe, the pipe did not extend to the centre of the floor trap, so leak outside the pipe. Could also be when they glue the PVC pipe to the elbow, never glue all around. Could also be a crack at the elbow. So many possibilities.

    Hi yoongf,

    Yes, there is a lot of possibilities...my contractor keep saying there are alot of small holes beside the pipe and they need time to track the leak and seal it up...bt I wonder whether this is a long term solution?

    Anyway I already scolded the contractor tt its causing alot of plms to me...cos everytime when they are sealing up the holes..I cannot use the toilet for 1 day in order to let it dry....

    My neighhbour below complain tt wheneva we shower, the pipe will leak...bt my flooring all done, tts y no more watermarks...now I duno where the plm actually is?

    I think u can also contact HDB or u prefer to let them do it. Previously my parents place also the same. Downstairs always complain to HDB and insist we float the MBR toilet to give problems to her toilet as well as her MBR ceiling. Yup MBR ceiling. HDB came to do the float test twice and nothing happened. In the end, no fault of ours as nothing could be found and HDB also closed the case. Btw, our MBR was even used for bathing and yet they insisted that we wet her ceiling EVERYDAY! Singapore too stressful so many crazy ppl around.

    Hi.. aft seeing yr reply...I really hope my neighbour below is making a mountain out of a molehill and it is not the truth....haaa....

    Mabbe they are "seeing" things...lolx...

    Dear All....

    Thanks for all the replies...

    Bt since I hv hacked twice...and the water marks on the below ceilings din surface anymore, cld there be a possibility tt the pipe below is "faulty"? And not my fault?

    Is there any troubleshooting to be done? i really dun wish to undergo the hacking once more...really v scared of the mess aft tt...

    i tink i hv to ask the unit below to complain to HDB and let their officer come and do a test...cos I hv done all I can already bt still cannot track the plm...I am at my wit's end liao...

    did your neighbour make any official complaints to the authority concerned? Let them go thru the proper channel and have it settled the proper way. U need not engage your own contractor to hack and re-do everything.

    My neighbour did complain to HDB last year...bt the officer is v "nua" and since my renovation still under warranty so I get my contractor to do it for free....now I save the money but gives me more plm...haiz...

    Sorri....din take any fotos of the pipe below...bt the water is not flowing a lot..is like dripping bit by bit...bt i am sure its v irritating for my neighbours...

    Hi All,

    My toilet is hacked and done up by my contractor more than 2 years back...however, 1 year aft I shifted in, my neighhbour below start complaining of water seepage to their toilet. I complained to my contactor as we have a 2 year warranty on our reno and they jus come up to put the "white cement" in btw the gaps...however, this does not resolved and 1 year later it leaks again at their ceiling and pipe.

    My responsible contactor hack my toilet out of goodwill and redo everything for free this Apr. Bt the plm still persists and in May my neighbour complain again! And I got very mad as the sub con din do a very good job....then in Jul they hack again....tis time round they did a very thorough check, do a flood test and water proofing job before laying the tiles. This time round, my neighbour's ceiling no more leakage...bt the pipe still got minimal leakage. This is really bothering me as we have used many of our leaves staying at home to oversee the construction bt the plm still not solved!!!

    Any experts out there to advise what cld be the plm? My neighbour's pipe got leakage?

    Please help! Thanks!

    From our experience, just do not rush things for a baby. Especially if the wife has just suffered from miscarriage. Do not succumb to pressure from elder's side. Do not listen to their folktales etc, traditional chinese medicine are fine, as it promotes the overall well-beings of your wife. But please do not go too far off. You should know what I mean. However, Iron, folic acid, and calcium are very important during pregnancy stage.

    I guess I can never experience the traumatic experience of my wife when this thing happened, imagine the joy for the 1st 5 weeks, till the drastic drop in our mood around us when my wife started to bleed, and when the reading starts to drop so sharply. I guess as a husband, I have to move forward, although I weep a little, no joke man does cries. I have to take utmost priority to reshape her back to good health, and of course to pay more attention to her mood swings etc. We have a good talk, and I convince her that's maybe it will be better that it happen this way, and early too so that we might have a deform baby in the later stages.

    Afterall she manage to recover well, and I guess it's good time that we will try it again.

    Just remember, there's hope one, don't lose your hope. "There is life after miscarriage".

    Hi,

    Though I hv not suffered from any m/c before nor hv I been preggie before...I do understand the predicament tt both of u hv went thru...however, no matter wat happens, as long as both of u are working together hand in hand to face it, am sure tt nothing will be difficult...

    Yes, there is always hope....take tis break to nurse yr missus health and try again!

    Good luck!

    Went to see Dr Micheal Wong Yuet Chen, formerly from TTS, now he set up his clinic at Mount E. Quite a good and a humorous doctor, if you ask me.

    Btw, before consulting an expert, does your spouse and yourself have any other health problems? My missus has natural miscarriage around the same period as you. The doctor assured us that we have no major problem in conceiving, but it takes time.

    You can start trying to conceive by now, if you are mentally prepared. One of my usual GP has gave me a very good advice. That's Life force. Both of you must build up the mood and the atmosphere for your "newcomer" to arrive. Your house, financial stability, rekindle your dating, and eventually build up your sex sensually. Your child will come eventually one.

    Remember, just don't rush things out.

    Well said! Since u & yr missus has went thru these....I am sure yr story will definitely spurs us on...

    Babydust to all and myself!

    Purple,

    Perhaps can share wif us more on yr age & both u and yr other half's health status?

    After yr M/C, did you do a mini confinement to nurse back yr health? Cos if u r able to be pregnant, there shd be not much of a plm for u to conceive again. Normally aft yr m/c, u will get preggy again in a couple of mths if u really try hard again cos after m/c, u will be more fertile.

    Since u hv consulted the gynae at the KKH suite, wat did he suggest to you? From my experience, most gynaes will suggest IVF, IUI or SO-IUI if u or yr other half hv some health plms....or no results after taking their supplements or vitamins aft some time...

    I agree wif wat yan485 suggests, sometimes TCM will really help! Perhaps u can give a try? Bt TCM do requires 6 mths to 12 mths to c results...bt if u r lucky, u might strike before tt?

    I am sorri, bt I do not hv any fertility doc to recommend u....bt if u r keen to do IVF, Dr SF Loh from KKIVF is not bad...I heard high success rate under him...my kolig's SIL and her frens succeeded under him at their 1st try....

    Meanwhile, do take care and stay relaxed and happi!

    So sad to hear that :)

    There is a quite famous chinese physician who shifted his clinic to Blk 79E Toa Payoh. Read abt him on local newspaper, seems to be quite solid. Could try him though I have never visited him.

    Have you ever read from newspaper recently abt a scientific research that if a patient fast for 48 hrs after each chemo treatment, his/her body will become stronger somehow? Don't know how true it is.

    Dear All,

    Thanks for all your concerns...

    I will not respond to all posts anymore...cos I dun wanna ride on this thread for too long talking

    abt something irrelevant....

    Thanks yokine9a for your info....hmmm...if anyone got good chinese doc, please PM me ok?

    Kam sia!
