Hi all! Congrats on your baby girl Schar! That's great that she is doing well. Welcome Katie! **How is everyone else?** Just wanted to let you know that AF officially came today. I am sad, but cried most of my tears over the last few days when finding out that yet another friend is pg. DH and I have decided enough is enough. We are scheduling HSG for this month (prob next week, I'll keep you all posted) and if I am ruled out as being an issue, we are insisting on the next step for DH. Has anyone had any experience with a veriscole? DH has low swimmers..which is what he is on clomid for and it has helped, so that is good, but he also has a veriscole and I wonder if that is a part of our lack of success.. any thoughts?

Hoping - my hubby has a vericosele on one side and a hydrosele on the other and i have been pregnant twice, unplanned on birth control even. once with a singleton and once with twins. i know they say that those conditions are supposed to make it more difficult to conceive, but in our experience it wasn't a problem. is there some way they can find out if the tubes are blocked or flowing? i don't know what they do about those conditions because since my hubby hasn't had any "problems" from his we have never looked into treatment. if the treatment is affordable/easy maybe it would help. did they give you any info as far as % chance of conceiving after treatment vs. without?

hi im new to this and i have a question.... Are any of you taking Fertomid? Its the generic form of Clomid. If so what does your pill look like and how do you take it? Today is the first day of my period and I was not sure how to take it.

Hi girls. Sorry been MIA but haven't had anything to report. **Schar** Congrats on your baby girl - glad she's doing good. Keep us updated with her progress. **Hoping** Sorry AF showed again - but our time will come. **Fatz** Maybe having a break from Clomid will do you some good. It stays in the blood stream for 30 days after anyway I think!! **As for me** I had my IUI yesterday - so just gotta wait and do a HPT on 3rd Feb. I'll keep you posted. **GL and babydust to everyone - 2009 is gonna be our year xxxxxxxxxx

Hi everyone, Congrats Schar! How is everyone doing? It seems like there is so much going on, can't wait to hear the results from all the blood work and tests being done. I have a good feeling about February. My birthday is next month and I only want one present........ ok maybe two lol. ** munchmom04** I'm taking Fertomid, I take it the same as clomid, I know people who have had success with both. My DS was conceived on it 2 years ago. But this is my first round trying for this pregnancy, I'll let you know Feb 1st if it worked.
Anyhow stay optomistic, I know good things are coming for everyone sooner than you think.

schar - Hey girl I have been thinking about you and I am so happy that your little princess is doing great. I am still ttcing but this cycle I took soy isoflavens and I am just hanging out maybe you can help me out if you have the time. I started this cycle on on Dec 29 and my cycles have been between 29-30 days long. I got my first bfp on the opk on cd 12 and 13 so I am a__suming I ovulated on cd 15 I have been bding away I bd on cd 7-10, 12-13, 15-18 and 22-24. I am currently cd 25/10dpo and my temp are still above the coverline I know for the last 3 days my temp was 98.41 on cd 23/8dpo 98.45 on cd 24/9dpo and today cd 25/10dpo temp is back down to 98.41. I should get AF between Jan 26-28 and I guess my officially test date according to fertility friend is Jan 28 and I should start AF on Jan 27. You know I want to test so bad but I am so scared. I guess if I am not pg this cycle I will try the vitex but where to I buy it from and do you know about how much it will cost and what days am I suppose to take it. Oh one more thing give baby girl a kiss for me. P.S. Glad to see you back. Miss you so much. Krissy68

Hi ladies! Hope you're all doing well! **Lisa** thank you for that information... it really does help. We're still not pg yet, but we bought the Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor which I hope will help even with DH's low SC.. We'll see! Right now he's just on clomid... our next step is to talk about the verioscele. We'll see! ***Fatz**What's up girl? You on cd 13 or so now? Are you still BDing even though no clomid? Do you temp or use OPKs. I know you've answered this in the past but we've both been trying so long I just can't remember anymore... How are you? **MunchMom** I have not heard of that generic clomid brand. Just be careful with generic... a girl on the forum a while back (remember Sarah, fatz and cj?) used generic clomid and it seriously made her violently ill---throwing up, diarhhea.. not pretty stuff... I hope its working for you but I just wanted to let you know what happened to her... just be careful okay... GL! **Taking**SOOO... what's the result of the HPT? Isn't tomorrow morning your day to test??!?! How exciting! Baby dust! **Esme** Hope it's a good sickness for you, too. Let us know... **CJ**How are you feeling? Was this your first IUI? Did it hurt? **Question for you ladies... DH and I have been discussing doing HSG to eliminate me as an issue... but now we bought the clear blue fertility monitor--total with sticks around $180, so we were thinking about putting the HSG off for a month. Then a friend told me that since I am getting regular periods and ovulating with no problem, there is no reason to do an HSG b/c the likelihood my tubes are blocked is slim to none...is this true? Any thoughts? **Okay ladies.. wish me luck with this CBEFM.... for how much it costs it should cook me dinner and ma__sage my feet, too! :)

thanks Krissy: you can test now I got bfp 10dpo. I am about sure you should be able to get one now if you are pg.I suggest 1 pill of vitex the smallest strength I have found is 400mg you really only need 20 mg a day you can buy it at a health food store where I live I buy it at mother earth or ada's you can also try fertility blend but vitex is enough and it's like 8 dollars for 90 pills take one a day with your pre-natal vitamins no more is needed. Vitex does take around 3 months for the full benefits of it . when you are 3dpo stop taking vitex and start back up at 12-14dpo if you test is negative. It will not hurt anything if you are pg just better not to take anything while pregnant. Good luck! I am going to TTC asap I am 8wks post partum not sure when I will Ovulate but I have started Vitex.
