Disco Derail! - TTCAL/PAL Discussion and Support!

Thinking of you, Sassy! :hugs:

Meggs we've been trying for five or so years, I've been pregnant twice, one ended with a miscarriage at 11 weeks (2007) the second ended with a full term baby boy who died at four days old (2008). We've been on this nightmare roller coaster of trying for far too long now, and it seems like forever, and are going to be getting further tests to rule out any obvious reasons other than our ages, and stress. No idea where to start though.
On the spin side, here, it's easier to adopt than it is to get IVF. Go figure. I think we will still adopt even if we are blessed again soon. Too much love to go around to goto waste. Hoping to hear good news from you soon!!! baby dust all round.

I didn't realize. :hugs: That's a hard road indeed. I think its infinitely better for adoption to be easier than IVF. Those kids are already here and need homes/families. So, that's fantastic! I wish it was easier here. If it was, I probably would already have my family and be done.

thanks for the info Megg. I googled this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semen_analysis and it says that 4% is normal for morphology, but everything else on the internet seems to be saying it's way to low.:shrug:

I haven't slept a wink last night for worrying about it :cry:

I found out his other results:

count - 60 million (she said they were way over average)
mobility 20 or 30% forgotten which (again she said was over normal)

Still debating as to whether we should just pay to go private or not.

Hi to other girls, and Sassy hope you're ok sweetie
x

60 million is really good! 20-30% motility... I'm confused. We had 34% motility, and we were told that "normal" was over 50%.

One of the issues with low morphology is that it can contribute to chromosomal anomalies in embryos and lead to loss. It was my biggest concern with it and one of the main factors that drove me into treatment. I want them to get rid of all the funky ones before they have a chance to cause problems. Granted, the chances of one of the deformed ones making it to the egg is low... I know that. But, I couldn't get the thought out of my head.

Except for count (as ours was like 24 million), we're in a very similar situation as far as sperm goes.

AFM... I've woken up with a very bad back. I don't know what's going on or why! :(
 
Hi girls, I have no clue when it comes to all the sperm stuff LOL. We havent had tests on that yet. I guess in the future they will?? I'm sure it will all be ok sugar. Everywhere online measures things differently so just stick with the doctors news. And get that OH of yours off the beer and bit more exercise. I'm sure it will help. With such a high sperm count it cant all be bad!!

Lucy its nice to hear that you are taking on some more household duties. I was the same, just sitting quiet and crying for weeks and then one day I just realised I felt a bit better and it was time to get my ass in gear. A good step hun. :hugs:

Well I am about to take the kitten over DH's cousins house. Already shed a tear. But we are taking our dog and my 5 year old cat to the pub cause they are both great with moving. So at least we havent lost them all.

Sass I am thinking of you hunni. Please let us know how you are doing. xx
 
OMG girls what a day!

I woke up to back ache and more spotting but this time it was brown, I went straight to hospital at 9 and was seen by 10, doc didn't say much just booked me for a scan at 2pm.

Baby is fine thank god, looking much bigger than last week and we saw his/her lovely little heart thumping away, me and Mum cried alot, it was such a huge relief to see that our bubba is perfect, he/she was even moving around and had a little stretch, cutest thing in the world!!!

I can't wait for Danny to get home so he can see the new scan pic.

PS. Thank you for you all messages.
