So had my consultation on Thursday, just waiting for af to show now so we can get started. My oh has always had normal sperm results but this last test his numbers had dropped by over half and motility was low so they have said it's looking more like we will have to do Icsi. Don't know why but I got really upset, think it's because I've always been the one with the fertility problem, kind of feel bad on my oh that he has to now feel some guilt. The nurse has said there's a chance his sperm will be ok on the day and if it is we can go with ivf. Excited to get started now, it all seems real! Af is 2 days late, think the fact I know it's all starting is making her delayed! Xx

 

[MissJuly10]

Glad the ball is rolling Charlie, sorry to hear about DH's results. It's good that the nurse seemed optimistic as I think there are things you can do to improve sperm, I'm not entirely sure what they are but I've read of lots of ladies saying what supplements etc their DH's do to improve their swimmers. Perhaps have a google?

[xxcharliexx]

Yeah he thinks it's because he was drinking more around the time and feeling stressed! Trying to not let it get us down too much, we have come this far so going for it no matter what! So after my period starts I will start injections 23 days later to shut down my ovaries. Even tho I've been to all the information evenings and appointments things just don't seen to go into my head! I really should write stuff down haha xx

Missj: how cool that they let you watch the procedure. Wishing you lots of luck!!

Xxcharliexx: I preferred icsi to ivf as than I knew that they would collect the best sperm cells and inject them into my eggs. Lol. And for us it worked! Lots of luck to you! xx

 

[Blueflower]

Wellman conception vitamins boost the sperm, DH got better quality ones after using it.
And of course the old favourites like boxer shorts and not too much cycling!
Good luck!

 

[Blueflower]

Is this your ivf cycle blueflower? X

Yes it is! Feels a bit unreal! How was your holiday?

 

[xxcharliexx]

Thanks ladies af arrived last night so 23 days until injections start! Exciting! Xx

 

[Dee28]

Good luck Charlie, I'll be stalking! Xx

 

[MissJuly10]

Woop, the countdown begins charlie! X

I think I'm 4dpiui today and feeling quite tender around my ovaries, they feel swollen or something. x

 

[gemmainthesun]

Is this your ivf cycle blueflower? X

Yes it is! Feels a bit unreal! How was your holiday?

Excellent news! Have you had it yet, in 2ww etc? Holiday was ok, it was a nice break and starting to come to terms with things abit more, getting excited to try again in sept time and feeling more determined so just going to enjoy the summer x

 

[Blueflower]

No no! Just started on the drugs last week! You sound very positive. X

 

[blondy13]

Hi ladies!! Miss j can't believe you're 5dpiui already!! Going so fast! How are you feeling?
Blueflower is it sniffing drugs you take to down regulate??
I am cd1 today after my break cycle on the pill, baseline scan booked for Friday, will start injections then too.

 

[Lucyboo]

Hi ladies. I'm waiting for af to turn up now to get started again. Due Sunday but will see if she shows. Been suffering with the hot flushes again. 2 today alone. Soooooo uncomfortable. .

Miss just hope your doing okay. This cycle seems quick,

blonde good luck with baseline

Blue flower hope things are going okay. What you on?

Charlie how exciting we could possibly end up being cycle buddies depending when af shows.

Anyone else hi xx

 

[Blueflower]

I'm just on the contraceptive pill to shut everything down, then I've got a scan next week & if that's all ok we start injecting Buserilin (Seprecur) to start with.

I'm feeling weird cos its messed up my hormones, & DH is in a strop because I don't feel like sex! Its annoying because his moodiness leaves no room for me to deal with how I feel! He can't seem to realize its worse for me being the one who its actually happening to! He's being such a baby we don't really need another baby in the house!

 

[xxcharliexx]

Well af showed for me on Monday night, I've got my drug appointment on 21st so it's all rather real now excited! Xx

 

[Blueflower]

Ooh, you're close behind me then!
