Hopefulstill,
Thanks for the wishes. My RE has never talked to me about giving my body a rest inbetween IUI's. He kind of goes with what I want. My first 2 IUI's I had 1 egg each cycle the eggs were 18.5 each time when I triggered. DH sperm count for the first one was 5mil and 7mil for the second one. He never told me DH sperm was on the low side. I found out by researching online. Anyway I wish he would have said something and suggested we skipped the first 2. My ins only pays for 4 IUI per pregnancy. so if this one doesnt work I only have one more chance. we cant afford to go forward after that. I am a little more hopeful this time because my biggest egg was 22.5 and DH sperm count was 10mil. I will keep you posted.. Have you decided when you are going to start again.

Hey Lisa
Good to here from you again. The snow is a nice change for the season. I just wish it would last so long. It wears on you after a couple of months. My son would live outside in the snow if he could. He thinks its the greatest thing... its his age showing.. give a few more years...LOL...
Anywaz... I am not sure on the herbs thing. I have not researched it enough. I read that folic acid, iron and zinc vitamins help with both female and male fertility. I actually had DH start on Zinc and Iron pills a couple weeks before our 3rd IUI and sperm count increased to 10mil. the mobility improved to. I have read that Accupunture has helped some people. I am curious to here about your experience when you go. If this IUI doesnt work I am concidering trying it for my last IUI.
I made it through my first week... I am not sure about the second. I am actually thinking about going out this afternoon and buying a pregnacy test... I hate it when I start tormenting myself. Im usually ok the first week, but the second week is Hell...

to Everybody...

2009 is going to be our year
