Ok well I will start with the bad news....
I did and did not respond to the Clomid...lol...confusing I know!! Basically, my lining responded, but I had almost nothing for follicles. My estrogen levels were a little low for what they should be with the Clomid.... it was only 56, which is the worst it has been so far.
So here is the plan for now: I am starting another dose of Clomid again today...I will be taking another 100mg for the next five days....then I go back to the RE again on Monday (our 1st Anniversary) for another follie check. Hopefully that will go well and we will be able to do the trigger shot.
Now for the GOOD NEWS:
DHs SA came back outstanding, in the words of the nurse....here is what she gave me for numbers....He had 94 million sperm (we want 20 or greater), 72% motility or movement (we want 50% or greater), and the sperm were normally shaped at 18% (we want over 14%).
So he did all that worrying for nothing! haha I know that is really going to make him happy and it is finally some good news for us. It does kind of make me sad though, knowing that I am the only reason we cant have kids right now. But the Dr. said as soon as we get my ovulation under control, we should really be pregnant in less than 3 months he believes...he said if we are not pregnant before October he will be literally shocked!!
Thanks for all the support girls, we will have to see how it all goes now...

I love that he said that you should be pregnant by Oct. thats great news. Lets hope it's this cycle instead

The SA makes me think of the super sperm episode of Rules of Engagement. I can just imagine your DH strutting around telling everybody he has super sperm.
Now that you know what the problem is I hope that they can get you a quick BFP and hopefully if you TTC in the future you won't have to do it for nearly as long.

YAY for some good news. Now tell your DH to get his super spermies working.  Hope you get your BFP way before October!
