triple post!

Northern: that is very interesting. I get blood clots during AF too! Does acupuncture hurt? I'm such a baby but have heard so many wonderful things a it it. I think whatever me and my Dh do next I def. need to add that into the mix. Or should I start beforehand? Thanks for sharing I will def. be browsing through the sites you shared.

Stillfun: I wish I had some advice. It's very possible your body failed to O. Mine does that ALLt he time lol! Why would you have to wait until next year if this next cycle doesn't work? I hope it does and you can start not he 22nd that would be so exciting!!!

AFM: haven't talked about baby stuff with Dh at all, well except to complain when he spent some money out of our baby fund account lol! But I'm trying so hard to let it all go for a bit while I work on being more healthy. I was reading how one girl got pregnant after a juice cleanse and I'm thinking of giving it a try to clean my system out and reboot everything. I'm thinking of next cycle if I can work it out maybe trying one last injectable cycle since that's what worked last time. Still haven't heard anything back from the doctor on my AMH results so I will probably give them a call tomorrow. I'll keep you all posted!

Hi ladies, looks like I Od on CD17 so I hope that's right and everything is fine, had my u/s today then have an apt at the clinic tommorow, it was weird that I asked the tech how retroverted my uterus was and she said that it was the right way, I don't know what's up with that... I'm going to ask the clinic tommorow, on my phone so its only a short one, talk soon girls

Just had my apt, things are looking great, they say my ovaries look like pcos but no other tests show that, I has 32 small follies yesterday which is a huge amount, they have rated my amh an A+ the highest is A++ lowest is D so it looks like I'm in the running for lots of eggs they are only putting me on a super small dose, my usual FS is away so they have a fs from a different clinic and she told me that kens sperm aren't the best I think its morphology the shape of them anyway is only at 2% which it most likely why we haven't conceived, nice to find that out 12 months ago when he was tested, anyway its too low for normal ivf and we have to do ICSI, on my ph but will talk soon

Woops and after all that that my antra follicle not amh

Sounds like you are getting somewhere, stillfun! And good news with all those follicles!! Yeah, I hate how they brush off the test results - did that with the last SA. Went through the numbers so quick I couldn't write them down and then told me they didn't matter "he was fine". Well, I'd still like to know the actual numbers!

I am CD7 today - last day of the clomid. I didn't get too many symptoms that I could tell. Sweating like crazy in bed last night though, and have been really really thirsty. I also got a TON of CM yesterday - sticky white of course as it's early. But I was surprised b/c I thought clomid dried up CM? Confused. Going to try the Robitussin again too. Anyhow, I can already feel pain on my right side when BDing, so I'm curious about what I've got for follicles growing!

Wow Stillfuntryin! 32!!! That is amazing!!!!! I think my last antral follicle count was 11. Well that totally makes sense about Kens swimmers. When my dh was checked they obviously couldn't tell us all that but I think SAs are usually VERY basic checks unless doing IVF. This is one reason I wanted my Dh to go to a male infertility specialist for a new semen analysis because they can tell even if you have 1 swimmer and they check for all those things but it's called a centrifuged semen analysis they are spun differently or something. :)

Northernbabydream: I've heard clomid should dry you up too but I always get more cm when I take it. :/ night sweats are the WORST! Lol! Well hopefully you don't get many symptoms from it they are horrible. Good luck this cycle!

AFM: I got my AMH back yesterday and it's at 2.7. My doctor told me anything over 2 was good. From what I read online I'm low average. Average for my age is 3.8. So mine are running as if I'm around 33. Not too bad accept with the low fantral follicle count and being a poor responder on meds lol! I've decided I want to do like one maybe 2 more injectable cycles and then if it doesn't work move onto the embryo adoptions program in Sacramento. I figure with IVF doctor is guesstimating 7 eggs. I know I can get at least two Ina basic injectable cycle which is a heck of a lot cheaper so I think that's a better route for right now.

Hi Girls, im at home now.

Northern - I know Clomid is way different to Tamoxifen but i didnt dry up i get wetter aswell, I only ever got hot at night when i was preggo. Are you doing IUI thi cycle?

Mel- Just to double check, you are going to do injectable cycle with IUI donor? Or Injectable with at home insem?
I love the idea of the embryo adoptions and your money back if you dont get preggo!!

Not much going on for me just relaxing, back to town on CD2.
