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.

It's better than painless, it feels good. Really good.
I only wish my scans and pokes and proddings felt that good.

12DPO and another BFN, not sure why I even bother testing. P*ssed off with the whole @#$@# TTC game this morning.
Nothing like a cuddle from DD after a hard day's work!
Hey Marushke,
totally understand how you feel, AF came at 12DPO! and i was certain this was the month seeing that i ovulated without clomid. GARR!!! I dont know how else i could IMPROVE!!
Someone please get a BFP to give us some hope in here.
xooxo

M2I'm sorry. It sucks when we do everything right and still don't conceived.
Registered User
Maruschke & M2osb, sorry to hearI think all of us have just about had enough!
AFM, 12DPO and I feel nothing. That's how I know AF is coming because I never have AF symptoms. So I never get AF and PG symptoms confused because there are no AF symptoms. No cramps, no sore boobs, no bloating, no nothing.
This will be my last attempt at improving chances. I am buying DH some zinc, another tube of pre-seed, I'm taking EPO and a multi and have just ordered some OPK's from eBay. Thought I'd give them another try, maybe my body has sorted it's hormones out!

I had a big cry with DH tonight. TTC just sucks.

DH came back from his brothers last night. He was holding their new born baby all night. I keep telling him to stop drinking alcohol, just to see if it will help us, but so far half a bottle of scotch Friday night with a mate, 6 beers Sat night, 6 beers yesterday and more at his brothers last night!!! I could just slap him silly.
You are doing IUI aren't you? looks like thats what we will be trying.
Registered User
Ahh I can imagine that would be so frustrating for you

13DPO and BFN and spotting. Just waiting waiting waiting for the witch.

Hey girls
Seeing that i ovluated on my own last cycle, do you think I should get back on clomid this cycle or go natural again this cycle?
i gotta decide today as today is CD 4.
Dont know what to do.
Registered User
Hmm I'd be tempted to try naturally... since clomid can interfere with CM. Although, clomid stays in the system about 5 weeks so perhaps you ovulated on your own because there were still drugs left over from the cycle before it? Sorry, I'm not much help!
Registered User
popping in quickly....
mum2onesweetbun: why are you on clomid in you are ovulating on your own ? i'd probably take it if you have it but then i have wasted time on natural cycles that have gotten me nowhere
Maruschke: sorry to hear about the bfn at 13 dpo and the spotting, i hope it doesn't turn into full af. im living in ttc suckville with you atm
tasha: i would want to slap your dh too, must be so frustrating when you are doing what you can and he isn't trying at all to cut down (or cut out) drinking.
hi to anyone i have missed
afm: day 18 and o sign of ovulation yet, will be starting the bding tonight, just couldn't bring ourselves to start too early this cycle.
do you girls know anything about vit b 6 to lengthen your luteal phase or progesterone cream to increase your progesterone level ?
Nothing like a cuddle from DD after a hard day's work!
I am on clomid because prior to that i wasnt ovulating and had long cycles ranging from 64 days to 128 days so i am worried that those long cycles will come back and bite me if i dont go back on clomid.
Arghhh decisions decisions!
yes about the CM, i had CM last round.
Registered User
Well, the witch is here. Trying to decide if I am doing clomid this cycle or not as well.
Registered User
Hopefully you wont need bigger and scarier things!
M2osb, I am going to use the next 2 cycles I have of clomid. Then when they have finished I will try a few natural cycles. Maruschke has a point though, clomid does stay in your system for a bit. I too am paranoid my cycles wont come back if I stop!
Mollie, I have a 32 day cycle with CD18 as my O day and this month I ovulated on day21.

M2osb, maruschke, Tasha - Yeap i feel the same way so over TTC this sucks it just should not be this bloody hard. I have decided to keep going till my July AF if i'm not pg after July AF i'm giving up its too hard emotionally to keep trying this long.
Tasha - My DP drinks about the same as yours but because his SA came back good even with his drinking he wont give up or cut down. I tried to talk to him yesterday about IUI again and he said that he does not think he should have to when its obviously my fault were not pg which when you think about it his right so i'm just about to give up on trying to get him to help me
M2osb - I was going to agree with maruschke about a natural round till i read that your AF is so long without clomid so now i dont know sorry but good luck with what ever you decide have you taken EPO it is good i have taken it before for CM
marusche - I'm so sorry AF showed, not sure about taking clomid this round or going natural, natural is good and clomid will still be in your system but clomid might increase your chances of a BFP i have not been helpful i'm sorry but good luck with what you decide
AFM - 8DPO and lots of symptoms in my stupid head but in reality not any godness i hate the 2ww. We need some BFP to cheer us up girls so good luck to everyone and lots of

Oh rai, *hugs* send him over for a kick up the butt!! along with my DH!!
I just got some pages up on the net about how alcohol affects sperm mobility. Alcohol prevents the body from absorbing zinc, and zinc helps make strong swimmers! i am buying some for DH this week.
Good luck too.....
