@Matarikigreen the SA is very important there are men who don' t won' t to do it...I don't know why...mine didn't have a problem with that and I'm glad he did it because we found out that there was something wrong. for you...all things will sort out

@bug I know the feeling...we went through this when we found out that his varicocele surgery had side effects after and we didn' T know where to start...and he was very sad...our friends are all preg. From the first month TTC...men aren' T so strong as women. You have to be there for him and stay positive every day and don't show him you are worried. Also people around him has to stay positive...my mother in law said me once,, you will have children when God wants you to have" and she didn' T believe there is a problem with her son... despite the fact she was with him when he had surgery..we didn't know each other then..they didn't ask the doctor if there will be problems later, her attitude made him feel worse.

@Momma this morning 36.9 so I think O day was on CD 17 , I'm now 2 dpo I suppose

Hubby will do it :) We just didn't think there was a need to given our previous history but better to be sure since it has been 14 cycles. The longest it took us in the past was 7 cycles. Thanks guys. I'm definitely trying not to stress. Post ovulation is when I really struggle urgh. BD tonight and then a break tomorrow unless the opk is positive. It was neg today.

So got to BD last night, I'm using CTP, Ovia, Fertility Friend and Premom to chart, Ovia and Premom have me O'ing on Wednesday and CTP & FF are for Thursday, for some reason Ovia wants to change my ovulation day to today which is absolutely NOT correct, I don't get their algorithm at all! 2 more nights of BD'ing before hubby goes back to work so hopefully we get lucky,.
Good luck to everyone coming up to O or testing day!

@Beck i don't use that metod anymore O day is not the same every cycle only 1day of AF . Even the doctor said not to count on that. BBT and Opk both.

@matarick, glad you got some good news hoping for you to have more answers soon.

@lissa sorry you have more waiting to do on answers. I am right there with you.

@momma thanks, Its good to know we will have some direction soon. My SO did start taking Conception for Men. I have been using the female version since December.

@andrea thanks for sorry and giving an advice. I think my SO is effected bc yesterday he came home from work kinda feeling down he said and had a headache. He did tell his mom about it yesterday as well. He didnt actually say we were TTCing but I think she got the picture. We hadnt told his parents yet since hes an only child we wanted to surprise his parents when it came time which we still will be able to do. I know his mom really wants to be a nanny. .my mom of course I dont keep nothing from her and she knows my pain however she has 6 grandkids plus 3 step grandkids.
Me and my baby sis are the only ones without kids and my baby sis isnt even sure she wants kids. I am hoping this doesnt effect my SO, he does see a counselor already for his PTSD, he served in the army 14.5 years, so I'm grateful that if he does need to talk to someone he already as that going for him. He said he already had spoken to his psychiatrist, who of course encouraged exercise, quitting his nasty habit of dipping, and eating healthier. Which he knows, but blames his low T on not having motivation. I am very positive that we will become parents this year hopefully sooner than later.

@beck I totally understand I use FF and CTP they never agree. But I lean more to the FF snd my knowledge on BBT. My O date is never the same.

@bug things will sort out for you. Big

@And and @bug I'd love to be able to rely on BBT but with a co-sleeping, 2 hourly waking little boy my chart is just all over the place. My OPKs are starting to get darker so I think Wed/Thu is about right for my O day, it does tend to be around CD17/18 with a 10 day luteal, little on the short side but hey ho.

@andrea, thank you and same to you. We both will receive our lil bundle of joy!!!

@beck, yes not a good idea to temp when waking hours are not straight. I use go do opks back in 2011 when I was TTcing with my ex and I could never figure those things out to really know I'd O happened or not so this time around I decided to not use them. and hopefully they work in your favor.
