LT TTC & Taking Clomid/Metformin #6

[Maruschke]

Are you going to do injectables than go home and BD or IUI. I would love to try injectables cause clomid is just not working

Moving onto IUI with injects I think. We found a new FS and his out of pocket costs for an IUI is $170 plus drugs. Pretty good! So I guess we will try 3 cycles of that before thinking about IVF.How about yourself?

I was really hoping not to have to think about this but clomid is just not working.

maruschke - That's fantastic $170 for IUI great. DP had his SA done and all was good so we were going to do IUI then if that did not work IVF. But DP has changed his mind (dont think i can say what i think and not get into trouble) and he will now not do IVF and is only thinking about IUI so not very happy. I can honestly say not sure what i'm going to do now maybe try to convince my FS to let me do injectables then go home to BD but my FS was not keen to let me do injectables. Men honestly who needs them lol.

Sorry to hear it, it is so frustrating when they change their mind. I guess it builds up hope that is then taken from you. I hope the IUI works for you. The 170 figure is from a doctor at QFG which is where I am transferring to. Any idea what your IUI costs are? DH is pretty hesitant about the donation part of IUI, it really freaks him out, not sure why.

Not sure how much but i'm assuming at least a few hundred i hope but not sure i know its not as cheap as $170 your lucky that's fantastic. There so funny my DP was the same with the SA but i went through city fertility and i brought a special condom that cost $25 so we could BD to get the sperm sample and have been told we can do the same if we do IUI, cause DP just refused to do a sample in a jar i wont say what he said but thank goodness for the condoms.

HAHAHAHA! My hubby is exactly the same! He was all freaked out over putting his sample in a jar so we had to BD at home and speed all the way to Melbourne pathology!

[Maruschke]

I helped DH collect his dudes for his SA, and the jar is really fiddly and really small!

LOL men are so funny after all we go through with internal scans, blood tests, all kinds tests and scans, injections, tables, blah blah blah there wimpy about collecting sperm which is painless and basically that's all they have to do anyway. See that's why women have baby's hahaha.
