Hopefully good old Vita (Zita!!) will sprinkle some babydust on us all...

Very sleep deprived , LO has been unwell all night. Coupled with the cramping that started yesterday and is continuing this morning I'm expecting my period today.

Wish my temp rise was for real

ClaireV and Herby good luck!

Lottie - sorry DP is taking the news so badly. I was surprised just how upset my DH was by a poor SA. Is there any obvious lifestyle changes he can put into place to help?

If the count and volume is fine and they are swimming fine it may not be too much of a problem. Also, did the 25% target come from the same place that did the assesment? The criteria for "normal" is variable - if they have high standards they may not expect quite so many to reach it.

Ready - good to see you back, even better to see you on the "on holiday" list. Feeling a bit that way myself - still temping, but ttc isn't at the forefront of my mind all the time - which after 2 1/2 years is a great relief. We're on the list for IVF in November - I expect the obsession will return stronger than ever about then.

tinkishopeful · 06/05/2008 13:19

sorry for results lottie

RahRah1 · 06/05/2008 13:31

Hi Lottie, my husbands came back exactly the same, but around 5%. Anything below 5% they worry about but they said everything else was OK, so they did not see it as being a fertility problem and we even did IUI, which they don't do if you have any sperm issues that effect fertility. My husbands doctor told him he had a few too many 'backwards sperm' which went down like a lead balloon.
Hope DP feels a bit better soon.

Squack · 06/05/2008 13:34

Oh Lottie sorry for the news about Dh's guys.

Is there anything productive you're able to both do?

He must be gutted poor fella.

Rattling, it is strangely liberating not obsessing isn?t it? I am quite enjoying just having sex and not wondering whether to put my feet up the wall afterwards ? November will fly round (if you need it to) and I am sure you will feel like a newbie all over again

Lottie, so sorry to hear that dp is so crushed. I?ve just looked at dh?s SA sheet, and I can?t see anywhere a guideline figure for 25%... what was the gp referring to? ? I presume that means morphology, and as far as I can tell 15% what they consider fine ? but I also think I read somewhere that 5% is the true cut off for assistance being the only option. Did his sheet give a breakdown of the motility as well? It seems odd to just give a figure of 53%. It should be broken down, as far as I am aware into subsections (Rapid progressive; slow or sluggish progressive, non-progressive; immotile)? but that said there should be 50% progressive motility, so 53% is good!
I don?t want to add to the worry, but the sheet here says that volume should be 2ml or more. This is what annoys me, there is no standard across the country. My dh?s sheet has nothing to do with density. I wouldn?t even know what that means, is it anything to do with the count?
How do you feel? It is good that they said his sperm is fine for iui etc, they wash it and take out the best swimmers don?t they, so that is good news. Big hugs.

Ready · 06/05/2008 16:57

*is... what they consider fine. sorry about that.

Clairvoyanttoo · 06/05/2008 19:16

Hey Lottie ... sorry your DP didn't get better news. Hoping there's something can be done ...

Well, FYM as of tomorrow you won't be top of the list anymore.

Started to spot tonight after I got in from work . Feeling gutted as this is the closest I've ever gotten ... chart looked like I might have just done it too

Herby ... hope you fare better than I did!!! Everything crossed for you.

Ah well. Back to the top.

Hope everyone is keeping well. Sorry for disappearing again this month, but I was trying not to obsess. Did it work? Not at all, and yesterday when my temperature plummetted I was absolutely gutted. It is amazing what tricks your mind can play on you. Even though my ov was later than normal, I had managed to persuade myself that getting to CD34 was good. Why do we put ourselves through this every month?

Anyway rant over. Fingers crossed for Herby and Tink. We could do with some good news. It does seem like forever since we had some. Sorry about the results Lottie. DH/DP's seem to take bad news far worse than us. He will get over it, but it does take time.

Clairvoyanttoo · 07/05/2008 06:10

Good morning everyone,

Please remove my name from the list ... I'm going to take a break from MN for a while. Might help.

Best of luck to everyone. Hope there are lots of BFPs coming this way soon!

Will be thinking of you!

Morning girls...sorry to see you go clairv - come back soon.... what has happened this month - everyone is disappearing.

Ready have a wonderful holiday - relax and enjoy xxx

Lottie hope DP is feeling a bit better today, I'm not sure on results information at all. Can you see a private consultant to discuss and get results verified - that is what we did and he said DH was fine when the gp initially queried morphology or something... hope ok x

must dash breakfast frenzy ......
