Hello all,
We've been TTC for nine months now, and it's really starting to drag. I think the problem is me, because a) I don't get ewcm, or watery for that matter, b) my cervix points entirely the wrong way, and c) I find it pretty hard to get wet during sex. I've been doing everything I can to combat these problems (Preseed, evening primrose oil, flax seed oil, grapefruit juice, red clover tea, green tea, red raspberry leaf tea, I could go on...), but nothing has made the slightest bit of difference. I'd say nine months is plenty of time for something to have worked, but nothing has, I still get almost no cm and we're still not pregnant
. (I'm 28 btw, so I doubt it's age-related).
Anyway, I thought we'd have a bash at self-insemination just to try something different. Who knows, maybe that method would transcend my cm problem. I don't have a syringe and wouldn't really know what I was doing if I did have one - my cervix points backwards so I wouldn't be able to squirt the sperm at the opening no matter how hard I tried, and what with having no ewcm for the sperm to climb up, I just feel it's a lost cause and that the syringe method would be no better than straightforward bonking (it wouldn't get any nearer to the cervix that hubby's schlong does). Am I right or wrong about that? Does anyone have any tips?
This cycle we're planning on doing the sperm-in-soft cup, insert-soft-cup method. It's the only way I'll know sperm has actually met my cervix, but I'm not sure if it too is a terribly flawed idea.
I'm a bit at a loss, basically. Any advice would be gratefully clung to. Thanks in advance
