For my sanity I have to try to be positive about everything. So although we haven't decided exactly what we are going to do MA-wise, I'm forging ahead and planning things now.
For the next two cycles, I'm going back to OPK's and timed bd'ing. Putting DH on some better vitamins to up his count. Thinking about trying the Dukan diet as soon as my body goes back to normal. Maybe I can at least lose a little weight between now and MA at least.
As far as MA goes, right now I'm leaning towards one more cycle of Medicated IUI, then reevaluate and discuss IVF.

Sounds like a good plan Sam. I hope you get your BFP on your own.
What is a Dukan diet?

Thanks ladies!
Stacey- The Dukan diet is similar to the Atkins diet, but with less fat, and the addition of oatbran. I'm giving my body one more week of comfort carbs, then going on it.

I love you, Sam! I'm hoping for amazing good things in your future! Any idea what you're putting DH on yet?
I have mine on a multivitamin, folic acid, B-12, zinc, selenium, L-Arginine (2g), and vitamin C.

Good luck with everything! Your plan sounds great and I applaud your motivation! I know what you mean about getting your DH to take his vitamins. My BF whines every time I make him take his.

Sam, the way I get Dh to take the meds I want him to take I got one of those weekly pill holders and filled it up. I sit it right in front of him in the mornings.
