We have decide to get a Semen analyzes on DH and blood work done. We started to talk about Clomid but at the end she changed her mind and wants me to wait till Nov. (a year from my last miscarriage). When she looked at my charts she told me that I should BD More often around O time. What???

If you look at it I say i do. also we have been trying for so long that DH feels it almost like a core.

Ummmm...totally JMO, but your doc is nuts. Your BD pattern couldn't be better.

your dr. is NUTS!!! that is totally adequate!!! my dr. actually said it's better to BD every other day from cycle day 9 through confirmation of Oing through temping. she said that if you BD too much, sperm isn't concentrated enough. all im going to say is the first cycle we tired every other day, we got pregnant. now i'm to hyped out on this to just relax and go every other day. hmmmmmmmm maybe i'm telling myself something... anyway, i think your bding is good. i highly recommend the clomid as it worked for me 2x. good luck!

I agree that your Dr seems to be a bit nuts! I think you're doing just fine!

I def agree your BD looks MORE than adequate and I'm not sure how you could BD more around O time, lol! My dr told me this cycle to do the every other day thing too, but he wants me to start around CD 12 and do it the rest of my cycle. At least the S/A and bloodwork are a start to getting some answers (hopefullly)!

I also agree that you BD plenty around O time!! At least they are moving forward with the bloodwork and the s/a. When are you getting all of that done??

I go on Wed for the blood work on Friday and DH needs to call about the s/a tomorrow. Were not sure how that works. Do you take a cup home and do it or does it happen in an office? And yes i agree with you all about my BD looking fine. DH and i decided that we wont change how we do DH but now reading your relays i think we might do the every other day thing starting CD10.

As for the s/a, as long as you live within 30 minutes of the hospital (or wherever you take the sample) you should be allowed to do it at home in one of their cups and take it right in to the office. If you live further out, he'll most likely have to do it there.

Lots of luck!!!

I'm a bit late but I agree with the other ladies that your BD timing looks fine. Besides, sperm can live longer than 2 days in fertile CM, so every other day should be fine. And good luck with the bloodwork and SA, i hope it gets you closer to your BFP!
