Hi ladies
SouthhamptonS - we have unexplained but we still did ICSI with our 1st cycle - just to be sure. There's always the possibility that my DH's sperm cant penetrate my eggs, so we weren't taking any chances. <-- I recently asked our RE about AH, and he says they used to do it a lot years ago, now they don't really do it anymore!? He said it has been shown, in some cases, to decrease the success...!? I don't know..... I was thinking about asking him to do it....but... now not so sure...
I will never complain (too loud) about pregnancy symptoms. I'd say never ever, but come on, if I am one of those poor women who get deathly sick, I might just complain for a minute - but: never to someone who is still trying to conceive, and not for long, for as soon as the feeling passed, I'd be pretty excited again! Bring on the morning sickness I say! LOL <-- Not many people wish to puke - except those of us fighting IF!!
How is everyone doing? Anyone doing anything special this time around - that you either did, or didn't do last time? Myself, I'll be doing acupuncture again and also thinking about a massage or 2 - why not, my medical coveres 80% of one
Though with my new medical, I have to get a prescription from my RE or regular Dr for both the above!? WTF?
Also: about a month ago I started taking something called Greens Plus - it has all sorts of good things like: Alfalpha, Barley and Wheat Grass jiuce powder, Bee Pollen powder, Carrot juice powder, Royal jelly, etc. I also added another royal jelly - as I've heard it really good for egg quality and can make a pretty good difference. Been taking those for about a month now and will have been on them for about 6 - 8 weeks by the time I start stimming - go eggies go!
Anyone else doing anything special or have any tips for us (fairly) newbies here?
