Hiya everyone
I'm a bit stuck, can't really talk very well with DH at the moment (I'm too emotional after today) and I really need to vent or get this off my chest.
I'm not sure as well if this is the right talk topic and I'm sorry if it's not!
Me and DH tried to have our DC (15 months now) for 2,5 years before being referred for IVF ICSI. First cycle and it all worked out thank god. We decided to wait and enjoy the first year with our LO before trying for nr 2. My DH has the firm believe that now my body has been pregnant I'll fall pregnant quite quickly but..... I don't think so.
His progressive motility was 20%, morphology was 2% and his sperm concentration was 8.2 mil.
I put both of us on extra vitamins, my DH got a bit better with his healthier eating habits and I'm trying to track as much as I can with my body / OPKs etc etc I've used soy isoflavones for a few months to really ovulate well and to get my cycles a bit more regular. Had blood work done at GPs and I'm totally fine according to them.
This month I felt totally different than any other month and me and DH thought we did it..... But the cramps and pains today and the straight in my face BFN tell me nope!!
I've read about that home insemination (turkey baster method ) and a few more things to see if we can do things that might end in a BFP because If I'm truly honest: I don't want to go through IVF again.
I know that it's not supposed to be fun, laughs and giggles in fact it's the opposite and stressful for anyone going through it!
We told each other we'll try till coming April and then we march ourselves to the clinic again which I dread.
Would we be able to fall pregnant with the numbers above? Anyone had any experiences with that? Any advice?
Thanks for reading this long post
