Self insemination

So we've been TTC baby number 3 for over 7 years now! Hubby has low sperm count and I have PCOS. Explains a few things🙄 randomly before Xmas I had an idea to self inseminate. So I did my research solid for a few days and ordered a moon cup and sterile syringes. Iv had my peak and have used syringe and moon cup fingers crossed 🤞 this works for us! Has anyone else done this and had a success story? Thanks 😊

@misspiggx I've done exactly the same this Saturday just gone, I'm now 4dpo, this is how I conceived my last baby, I had been trying for 3 years before, Sadly had a still birth this august just gone, so hopefully I'm lucky this month 🤞🏻x

@misspiggx the count down beings for us! 🤞🏻I have a good feeling for this month, I hope those signs keep coming! I'll be symptom spotting tomorrow 😂 have to keep each other updated for sure ❤️

misspiggx · 05/01/2022 22:52

I have a good feeling too! I just hope it's the outcome we want! Definitely keep in touch and see if it worked! I feel like this is my last chance 8 years is a long time! Xx

I've got everything crossed and that's exactly how I feel I have a 4 nearly 5 year old, so I didn't want to much of a age gap, have you had any symptoms today ? The only thing I've had is a big increase in creamy cm, and a banging head 🤞🏻xx

My youngest is 12! But would have been 4 if we got pregnant at the start. Iv not really got any symptoms out of the ordinary. But I never did with the others just nausea once I had a positive test. My eating has changed I had a curry for my dinner today! I never do that lol I'm just hoping I'm still in with a chance. Tried so hard this month! I'm trying not to symptom spot just wait until I can test I guess xx

@misspiggx hi how have you got on? Have you tested yet ? Xx

misspiggx · 16/01/2022 15:46

Yeah I'm out 😔 come on this morning! How are you getting on? I was so sure last week! Oh well try again it was only first time using moon cup xx

Was due today but had nothing yet, all I'm getting is negatives tho so definitely out, I've made an appointment for private ivf on 3rd of feb, as I'm so desperate xxx

misspiggx · 16/01/2022 18:16

Wishing you all the luck in the world. It's so sad that we have to go through all this 😞 I'm keeping hopeful as it's my only chance. I would never be able to afford ivf any time in the next few years. Xx
