Hi,
The only thing I can think of is doing an IUI cycle with frozen sperm. Your husband would give a sample at the andrology lab that works together with your dr's office. If the count is high enough the lab can divide the sample and freeze in two separate straws. That way you can do two IUIs, back-to-back - which I really recommend when working with frozen sperm. Reason being: frozen sperms' life span is much shorter compared to non frozen samples. Since it may life for only ~6-12 hours you want to do two procedures to be covered for sure. Best wishes.

Hi,
How far away is he leaving from your fertile window? Remember sperm can live for up to five days!!!!
Best wishes

Thanks ladies... he is flying to Europe on a red-eye on a Sunday night and gets back Friday evening. I expect to ovulate on the Thursday so it's just like the worst timing. of course we will bd Sun before he goes and Fri when back but I fear that might not cut it. . . . Given we've been bd every fertile day for months with no luck, seems like we need all the help we can get!
