It took my wife and I about 8 years to have a family. Let's just say that we both have "problems" so we went thru all the steps, of getting tested and going
thru IVF and eventually we adopted two brothers from Romania.
It's tough very tough for a lot of people. I remember reading that ONE IN SIX couples have some type of issue in having a family. So joke all you want but some of you younger guys will find out the hard way later on in life when it's your turn.
Good luck

So just got back and I was pretty impressed. After the doctor asked us the questions about our background he pretty much answered everything that I wanted to asked without being prompted.
Explained that our situation (off of birth control>quick pregnancy>miscarriage>no ovulation) is pretty common for woman Mrs. TF's range. Looks like our next step will likely be the injection drugs which typically see a 25% success rate in the 1st month and about 60% after 3 months. Costs about $2k/month, but I'm pretty good with that.

Probably not something you want to think about now, and I don't mean to hijack the thread, but if you get pregnant with multiples you can decide to reduce.25% chance of multiplesOut of that 25%, 80% twins, 20% more than twins

The $2k includes monitoring throughout the injections....so they'll tell us when to do it (prior to ovulation) and then monitor if my sperm is getting there...if not, then we can AIShe's feeling good as well.

I love being pregnant. I would so be a surrogate for someone I knew. Hubby is 100% against the idea.
Sorry, just trying to make you smile. 
When did you last vacation? You said nothing medically preventing you from getting pregnant. Stop trying. It will happen.

You weren't suppose to sedate her with that much Benadryl!
Sorry, just trying to make you smile.
When did you last vacation?
The last vacation was only about a month ago... It was pretty eventful, but didn't intersect the ovulation period.

Hey Tiger. I wish you all the best! My wife and I went through this just last year. Actually it was our third try through IVF. We didnt get pregnant the first time, miscarried the second time, and were successful the third. So don't give up if it doesn't work out the first time. The problem was on my end, not hers (bad swimmers and low count). Not sure what the sitaution is with you. Two months before we began treatment, i quit smoking, began eating healthier, and began taking some special vitamins that supposedly improved sperm quality. On our third attempt, they implanted two embryos hoping one would take. They only put in two since my wife was young (29) and the problem was on my side. Well, they both took and one even split in two. We were pregnant with triplets.25% chance of multiplesOut of that 25%, 80% twins, 20% more than twins
I don't want to scare you, but there can be many serious issues. So be prepared. There will be many ups and downs along the way. The fertility ride is a roller coaster. Our preganacy was rough. We were advised to 'reduce' the pregnancy. We would have to 'kill off' either the one baby or the twins to make the pregnancy safer. After trying for 5 years, we couldn't do it, especially when they said that there was a small chance we could lose all of them, not just one. My wife was on complete bedrest for most of her pregnancy and we almost lost the babies twice. My wife ended up prematurely giving birth to my son and twin girls last August, just 26 weeks into the pregnancy. We thank God each day that they are all healthy and doing well.
It was a high risk pregancy and quite scary, but the bottom line is that if you have hope, things will work out. If you have any questions, PM me. I wish you and your wife all the best. Good luck!

No dice first month
We're actually starting the 2nd month of injections today, so hopefully we'll have better luck this time around.We were in Mexico for a work trip, and one of Mrs. TFs coworkers' wives and 2 of her friends said she had problems and ended up going to an accupuncturist and everything worked out. Very 
for me, but we might give it a shot if the 3 months of injections don't work out befoer dropping serious coin on IVF..

Update
So the 3 months of the injection (Gonal-F) didn’t work. Very rough times around the TF household. :sad: While we were discussing it (before we knew she wasn’t pregnant) I made the mistake of saying I think we should take a little break before we went forward with the In Vetro. Well she lost it and basically said that she wanted to go for it right away……I know emotions were heavy….but basically I’m looking for some advice from those who have been in my situation.
Her position
· Wants.baby.now.
· All she wants to be is a mom (and it’s all I want her to be)
· Everytime a friend announces she’s pregnant, Mrs. TF loses it. We were at a wedding and there was a 2 year old dancing and she lost it.
My position - I have no problem with the In Vetro, I just don’t think we should do it right away for a few reasons:
· First and foremost, I think all the constant injections, doctor visits, testing, etc is wearing on her (and me) emotionally. Her #s are down at work (not a direct result of this, but it’s obviously playing a part. I think a break from all this (knowing that we will go the in vitro route down the line) will be good for all of us.
· In Vitro is very expensive (our doctor quoted us $15k), and I’d like to at least wait until my enrollment period for my benefits comes around so I can stock some $$ in my health savings account so I can save about 1/3 of the cost.
· A few of her co-workers succeeded with acupuncture
, and honestly, I’m willing to try it before we step into IVF.
· I’m worried that if the IVF doesn’t work this time around, she’ll never be the same
Clearly, she’s thinking with the heart and I’m thinking with the head….but I’m absolutely stumped on how to even have the discussion with her in this fragile state. She wants to talk tonight……To her defense, she’s very worrisome by nature; so I’m not sure if the “break” will ease her mind or make it worse.
Thanks for letting me vent, and help a brother out if you can.

How old is your wife? I think this is one huge question. If she's past 30, fasttracking the IVF might be a good idea. Also, you've done the injections for 3 months -- does your doctor recommend doing more months of these before IVF? This also plays into the age question obviously.Also, this benefits thing you mention seems important. If you can save all that money by waiting a few months, I would try and do it by all means.Maybe you can work out an arrangement where you both agree to "chill out" a bit until those bennies kick in, then step up to the next level of treatment? I know from personal experience that this is not what she's going to want to hear, but I do believe that stress is a major cause of infertility. Acupuncture sounds like a GREAT idea during a "chill out" period before committing to the IVF.UpdateSo the 3 months of the injection (Gonal-F) didn’t work.

My wife was 29 when we first started dealing with this, so I feel your pain. Somehow the idea of reaching 30 without a kid made her extra upset.We got lucky after our first injection treatment, but I'm pretty sure we wouldn't have gone more than 3 without going to IVF, if my wife were to have had anything to say about it.I haven't read through this thread in a while, but what are the other factors here?

During the entire conversation tonight let her do 90 percent of the talking. Just listen and appear to be understanding, even if you're not. When you do talk, let her know that you're main concern is her health and well-being. Don't aim for a total 'solution' tonight. Just let the dust settle and let her vent.If she does ask what you really think, just tell her that you envision a kid in the family. It's just a matter of when.

Stephen Covey says "seek first to understand, then to be understood".
We dealt with fertility issues as well (was on my end, and corrected via a small procedure).
As hard as it is to deal with at 29, remember that you guys are still young. The average woman is not considered a high risk pregnancy until age 35.
When it was looking bleak for us, we looked hard into adoption. Many great families are made through the adoption process - its one of the most noble things that can be done in my opinion. That may be an option for you.
All the best!

So update here....first off if anyone is reading through this thread and is about to go to a fertility specialist....do yourself a favor and get your sperm tested first. We had no evidence that I had any issues (we got pregnant once, and then had a miscarriage) so we dropped a total of $6k on the fertility doctor and then I got checked out, and it turns out that I have low #s, and will have to go in for a small outpatient procedure.
She still can't ovulate w/o the drugs....but the drugs worked for her......and it was my stuff that was the issue while she was on the drugs. I'm pissed at myself for not seeing a urologist sooner.
I've got a varicocele vain in my left testicale....the small procedure will correct it, and has shown to increase sperm (count, motitilty, mobility, etc) in 75% of the people who have the procedure. Only thing is that it takes about 3-6 months to take place.

I am pregnant with my second set of twins...both times it was right after coming off the pill and my OB/GYN thinks that is why. He said sometimes the body goes into massive egg making after being held back for a while.
Good luck to all of you, but just a little advice because my friend just went through this...have sex every other day...doing it every day depletes the swimmers too quickly. And to those considering fertility drugs, I am blessed to be having twins, but pregnancy with multiples is no joke. I have lost a set and am scared now, but I have very good doctors and they located the problem from last time and think I will be okay now.

My wife and I have six children, all 12 and under. We have prayed for infertile couples before and seen the problem reversed. I suggest you find a Christian or a church that believes in miracles, and receive prayer.We had a similar issue and part of the problem was the doctor. Fortunately, my wife is a scientist and caught it. Most doctors will assume that a woman's cycle is 28 days....and that assumption is typically correct, but a cycle can be between 28-35 days. My wife started reading an internet site that suggested her charting her body temperature for an entire month. Those temps then could be a very good indication of what her cycle was. It turned out hers was 35 days, so we were very busy a week too early. After figuring this out, we adjusted and now we have a little boy that is due into this world in about 4 weeks.Not sure what kind of research she's done etc, but I'd recommend educating myself as much as possible. Our doctor still doesn't believe that her cycle was 35 days, but the data shows otherwise. GL to you and your wife!!Snitwitch, I went back and read your post on trying to get the wifey pregnant. It sounds verbatim like what my wife and I have been going through for the last year. Any updates? good news? advice? I had some testing done as well.. the troops were solid as a rock, she's 29 and her hormones check out all good. Let me know how things ended up. OneAlso.. anyone else with advise, please feel free to comment.

I suggest you find a Christian or a church that believes in miracles, and receive prayer.We had a similar issue and part of the problem was the doctor. Fortunately, my wife is a scientist and caught it. Most doctors will assume that a woman's cycle is 28 days....and that assumption is typically correct, but a cycle can be between 28-35 days. My wife started reading an internet site that suggested her charting her body temperature for an entire month. Those temps then could be a very good indication of what her cycle was. It turned out hers was 35 days, so we were very busy a week too early. After figuring this out, we adjusted and now we have a little boy that is due into this world in about 4 weeks.Not sure what kind of research she's done etc, but I'd recommend educating myself as much as possible. Our doctor still doesn't believe that her cycle was 35 days, but the data shows otherwise. GL to you and your wife!!Snitwitch, I went back and read your post on trying to get the wifey pregnant. It sounds verbatim like what my wife and I have been going through for the last year. Any updates? good news? advice? I had some testing done as well.. the troops were solid as a rock, she's 29 and her hormones check out all good. Let me know how things ended up. OneIt will happen when it's suppose to.

If you have been checked out and there are no anatomical problems (blockages, no boys, etc.), then you should look into acupuncture. When you combine it with proper nutrition, the success rate I have on previously infertile couples is about 30-40%. Not overpowering, but worth a shot. Give me a PM if you want more info.
