That is so awesome Dana! I think this is how it should be everywhere.
I am in South Africa so we would be the same as you, it just seems to be the poor Brits who have that terrible list, something needs to be done about that.

I love the PMA. I will drop by your journal sometime soon and see how it is all going in detail

Hey honey - I am also from SA CT, moved to Switzerland just over a year ago!!! Fellow South African unite!!! Celine and Jacky24 are also from SA

Good Luck Tory 123!

So ...Saturday day we had our IUI and for some reason I feel good about this cycle. I'm probably setting myself up for a big disappointment...but I have a good feeling. My hubby had a REALLY good count, 47 million compaired to his past 26 million (sorry TMI) and the one follicle I had was the more mature than any other I've had.

I'm not sure how they measure the follicles but mine was 2.8?!? She said as long as it’s not over 3 that it was good size. Normally mine are around 1.8, I hope everything comes together….literally!

Good luck hun!! I am a few days behind u... I test on Monday... good luck!! xxxx

BFN! Hubby and I are going to try without FS for a few months. Seems like we had more luck getting preg. without all the drugs and stress. Now that we know what was most likely causing the miscarriages maybe we can prevent it from happening again! I'm sad but also a little happy...I can kinda' get my life back for a few months!

Hello Ladies, My hubby and I are now on to IUI. I was at the DR yesterday and finally told us that hubby's count is low ( 27 mil ). I don't know why he didn't tell us this sooner. We have an appointment with the fertility clinic next Friday. We have plans on trying "natural" IUI for the first few cycles then on to clomid.

I would honestly ask them to do do a medicated IUI from the start. Good luck with it all!!!

Hi

First time on IUI this week. Day two of injections think I go to the hospital on day 8. Then DH has to do his bit then its fingers crossed.

How's everyone else?

Hi everyone. I'm new to this forum and was wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience to me whilst TTC on Clomid 50mg.

Me and my husband have been trying to conceive for about 2 years now. In June 2008 we began treatment at the hospital and I was put on Clomid 50mg days 2-6 of my cycle (my cycle was very regular every 28-30 days and I ovulate myself anyway). In October 2008 I had a laparascopy. I had a cycle the following month and took clomid. Both me and my husband have been told we are both healthy and the diagnosis is unexplained infertility.

In December 2008 I fell pregnant and was over the moon However this turned into a chemical pregnancy and i miscarried at 4.5 weeks. Ever since then my cycles have been all over the place. I was told to take a 2 month break from the clomid after the chemical pregnancy. However I had an almost constant period throughout January (alternating between red and brown) and then mid cycle bleeding in February. I consulted my GP a couple of time during this time and was told it was unlikely i'd even ovulated both months. I started my period this month on 2/3/09 and began taking the clomid. My period stopped after 6 days and although it was red blood it never really got heavy (normal for me is to start light then on 4th/5th day have a heavy bleed). Then today 11/3/09 I started bleeding red and it is quite heavy. I phoned the hospital and my consultant says he want's to start follicular tracking next month because he doesn't know what's going on.

Needless to say i am very confused with my body at the moment and feel a bit down today as this is probably another month wasted. Would really appreciate any similar stories or feedback.

Hello JAR, welcome to the board. This whole process is so very confusing. I think once they start tracking your follicles some of you question will be answered. The bleeding my have something to do with the Clomid you are taking. I couldn’t take that stuff; it made my body to some strange things. Have you been using the ovulation test strips? I wish you the best of luck….My hubby and I have also been trying for almost 2.5 years. We have conceived three times over the years, but miscarried with all three. After my third mc in April of 08 I started seeing my Fertility Specialist and thought/hoped we would be pregnant within a few months. It seemed as if we had no problem getting pregnant, even the doctor said that. At the time we had conceived three times with in 1.5! Now we have been with the FS for almost a year and no luck! We are starting to think the stress of all the shots, visits to the hospital, and getting my hopes up every cycle is just too much for my body. We are going to forgo the treatments for a few months and just try on our own for a few months.

Hi Lulabell, thanks for taking the time to read my post. I have started with OPK's this month - not sure if this is making me more stressed or not. I too feel like i need to give my body a 'break' from trying and have decided to concentrate a bit more on myself for a few months. Don't know whether to feel happy knowing that at least it can happen - it happened once it can happen again right? Hope you get another BFP soon and hope it's a sticky one this time.
