Ever feel in a particular cycle that you've done EVERYTHING you possibly could...

[U347464]

..and that if you dont get a BFP this cycle, you never will? That's how I feel this month. Clomid, preseed, Hyponidd (like Metformin), OPks, prenatals, pseudo SMEP (we BD-ed on CD 11, 14,15, 16). DH was exhausted and we couldnt BD on 1DPO and 3DPO. DH would be on his third month of prenatals. Some prayer. What else could I have done this month? Would be devastated if it didnt happen this month and may have to give up!

Thank you. That was a lot of BD-ing that month. BTW, what's CBFM? Still getting up to date w the lingo.

CBFM is Clear Blue Fertility Monitor

try imagining you and your OH don't have any problems, all your fertility tests came back perfect but after 1,5 years of trying naturally you start fertility treatments to increase your chance. you get shots everyday to produce nice eggies, you have bloodwork and scans done every 2 days and see mature follicles just before your IUI. then your doctor takes your OH's sperm and chooses the best ones and puts them into your uterus with perfect timing and you end up with a BFN.
it's really hard, I just wanted to give you an insight that everything being perfect doesn't necessarily mean it'll work.
I hope none of you get to these stages I'm at right now. good luck

That must be hard. Out of curiosity - Are DH's sperm count OK as well? I'm not assuming that everything being perfect means it will work. Rather, I just feel like if it doesnt work this month, it probably never will because I dont know what else to do (as far as my ability to change things.

yes hun DH's sperm count came back perfect too, when our doctor put some of them on the microscope to show us, he said "I think my microscope may get pregnant with those sperms too" lol

I went off BP in 9/2009, NTNP for a year and have been actively trying since 9/2010. Went for testing this summer and every test has come back normal. BDing the right times, have used CBFM the last few months, and nothing yet.
