CBFM Buddy

Garfie - its meant to be between 3 and 10 days, we've agreed till Friday. Unfortunately we're both very sexual and sensual, so we're having to take extra precautions (no seeing each other naked etc).

Piano - I don't see it as a bad thing, they're not looking at the person and wanting them, they're looking at the positions, acts and situations and imagining themselves doing it to you. Most men can't build a picture in their head from words like a woman can.

Garfie - agreed that porn (and toys, and role play, and masturbating together) can enhance things, and not just in the bedroom. Neither H2b nor I could be in a relationship without these things.

Chicky - happy birthday!

 

[ilovepiano]

Well i certainly don't like the idea of my husband looking at a naked woman....
however, that's just me.

Tink, i have no idea about what the results mean, so i cannot give much help on the subject! sorry!

 

[Briss]

Chicky - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

ladies it's really hot in here! I would also feel very sexual and sensual if I was not stuck in the office in this ungodly hour doing some corporate crap... oh well, had time to order 50 shades off Amazon, so will join your discussion soon hopefully

Tink, to me your results look great. there is a lot of criteria for morphology and it's all very confusing

afm, am in 2WW but do not have much hope for obvious reasons so am not obsessing symptom spotting. ovulated on CD14!!! so pleased with this, expecting 27-29 day cycle. hubby's off beer for 3 weeks officially and determined to last one more week but then he said he is going to the pub

 

[chicky160]

Thanks Briss. So delighted you ov'd at a normal time! Yay for longer cycles

Exil don't leave it too long our clinic told us 2-5 apparently after 5days of abstinence sperm are mostly dead

Tink I suppose when you think of the actual count then 3% isn't that bad. But definately room for improvement. I've been freaking out about morph results too so am looking forward to seeing what the dr has to say

Bloods booked for Friday! x

 

[exilius]

Chicky - Sat night was his last one, so would tonight (wednesday) be ok? It'd be a few hours under the 3 days

 

[exilius]

And by Sat I mean sun

 

[ilovepiano]

Sorry Chicky, i meant to send you birthday wishes too, but my hands never got to it lol!

Briss, yes buy them and have a good read

Good Morning ladies, Cd6 1st day of the CBFM readings... obviously low.

 

[chicky160]

Exil - Ha this time difference thing can be so confusing hey. I'd say that would be perfect, after all those little future babies of yours need the best chance

Thanks piano xxx

 

[exilius]

In which case we'll do his test tonight. He'll be so happy to know

 

[chicky160]

Is it an at home kit? And from what I know you need more than two days for sperm to regenerate and anything more than 5 most will no longer be viable so I'd say tonight would be perfect. Good luck! x

 

[tinkerbellsie]

Oooh thanks Chicky. If you get to docs before 7th sept let us know what they say.. (Tho sure you will anyway) as we can't get there until then. Xx

 

[exilius]

Did the test. The results were very obvious, no room for doubt. It was well and truly negative. I'll be looking for a new Dr for us to go to for a proper test, as well as researching how to improve his results. I suppose I should be a little happy that its not all my fault...

 

[garfie]

Aw Exilius - So sorry hun - is there no room for doubt? sorry I don't have any advice except the usual - no hot baths for him, not to wear tight pants, stop smoking (if he does) not over exercise, keep at a healthy weight etc. Hope the doc comes up with something better surely they must be some vitamin or supplement he can take

Chicky - Glad you had a good birthday yesterday still waiting for my chocky

Tink - Hope you are having a fabby time on holiday - hope the weather is much better than here - rain, rain, rain

Piano - LOW is fine to start off on right? - mine is still on HIGH - don't think it's going to give me a PEAK this month - thought I had already Ovulated but temps tell me different

Briss - Glad your cycles are getting back to normal - would it hurt hubby to have drink? or was he thinking of going on a bender?

[exilius]

It was the 2nd darkest colour. He already takes macca and a pre conception tablet. I'll look into options tomorrow. He did mention some pretty bad testicular trauma from when he was a young child, so it could be something like that.

At the moment I think a proper test is the best way forward

 

[Briss]

Exilius, I agree I think you should do a proper test, the result might be very different. can I ask which test you did? For a list of vitamins that I am giving to my hubby you can see the list in my signature but I think (or hope) for us the key is to stop drinking.

Garfie, I do not mind him having a pint I am just not sure he's going to stop there after 4 weeks...

 

[tinkerbellsie]

Exil I debated getting one of those at home tests but didn't because they can apparently make you worry unnecessarily and there may to be anything wrong at all. But hopefully will speed up getting OH checked. Obviously they can't check for morphology etc in the at home tests.

Garfie- it is so hot! I am poorly today though after a bottle of wine last night still don't feel right now and have been being sick on and off all day. So that's rubbish

Briss really hope stopping drinking makes a massive improvement to hubby's soldiers for you both

 

[exilius]

The brand was test point. Apparently they are recommended by nhs fs. But it says on in a negative test indicates an 86% chance of being below the WHO cut off point. So, yeah, there's certainly room for doubt, however its an indication that we probably do need an fs, and need to discuss how we feel about reproductive technologies. In the past we said we'd rather adopt than go down that path, however that was before we found out how much both options were, how difficult adoption is in Australia (most couples never manage to do it) and that it was actually a choice we'd realistically face.

Briss I hope hubby keeps the drinking minimal, and that it improves his little soldiers.

 

[chicky160]

Ahhh exil I'd definately get a second opinion Hun you never know it could be way off and like tink said it doesn't measure morphology, progression etc

 

[exilius]

Yeah, just about to call round to find a Dr. I'll also check that he has the right level of insurance if we do need assistance.

I was never planning to trust the test fully, just using it as a way to make the Drs look at him, and not just me, also to help him see that it's not just my fault.
