Hi opalfoxy. Good to hear you already have a healthy baby. My dr told me chances are a bit better if you were able to have a baby before. So fingers crossed you will be getting pregnant soon, hopefully this cycle. I read a bit about the pineapple core, it is supposed to help with implantation as well. I will be picking up some today :) doesn't hurt to try. Hope vitamins help you too! I am 2DPIUI and feeling good. No signs or symptoms but that's ok since at this point of the game in my last pregnancy I wasn't experiencing anything.

I had cramping lat night 5dpiui and then a bit today. I feel more bloated, I wonder if it is the pineapple core?
Yes, apparently eating pinepple core after ovulation is like taking baby asprin. It thins your blood and reduces inflamation in the womb. You cut the core into five bits and eat it each day after ovulation. To much is not good either.

Hi Ladies,
Basia - sounds like things are looking good! I hope this is your cycle!
Opal - hopefully the cramping is a good sign. Maybe next transfer I will try the pineapple core.
Ma_espe - welcome!
Tubal - any news?
AFM - Had my follow up appointment on Thursday. Since there wasn't anything to freeze we have to start all over again. He said our really low fertilization rate (4/17 fertilized) is likely due to the sperm, especially since I am younger and "responded beautifully" to the meds. Apparently there was only 0.1 million and none were motile at the time. They will try adding menapur with ganirelix and gonal f to hopefully improve egg quality a little bit to make them more responsive to the sperm. Pretty much all we can do. Started BC on Thursday so here we go again.
Just a question - when your guys bring their samples do they do it at home or at the place? If before, how long before?
Hope everyone is having a good weekend!

Thorntoj86: Hii, wish you good luck. My DH gave the sample at the fertility clinic since we live about an hour away and it would of been pushing it. I think an hour is the maximum. But if your DH has sperm issues already, maybe doing it at the clinic will be better. At least they will take care of them right away.

Thorntoj86 - My husband has to drive to our clinic as soon as my blood works says Ovulation, one hour later the sperm is washed and ready.
Ma_espe You can eat a segment a day of the 5 until you get a positive pregnancy test but then you need to stop. (I'm on my 2nd core)

Basia, good to hear :)
Hello Texas, nice to see you - are you trying anything at the moment? I just saw a Naturopath the other week and she got me stronger prenatals
