      From N79 September 4

      He would NEVER talk to someone he doesn't see it as a problem...the only way I can even rationalize it is that he thinks sex and affection and love are the same....without sex he doesn't feel loved..crazy. I did read the book called Love Languages and his is in there....he doesn't try to learn mine though....fighting about mom's isn't fun either..hope it passes.

    • Close Infertility

      Male Factor - low sperm count. I also have small ovaries which means a decreased ovarian reserve - don't know if that has any effect on our infertility.

      Treatments

      Basal Thermometer Somewhat Helpful
      Did it one month and my dog ate the thermometer right before it was supposed to spike!
      Folic Acid Working / Worked
      Taking it in my prenatal.
      Follistim Working / Worked
      Worked but because of my small ovaries it only produced a small number of large eggs and a medium number of small eggs.
      hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) Working / Worked
      Released my eggs on time - yipee!
      HSG (Hysterosalpingography) Working / Worked
      Just a little uncomfortable but worth it. Saw my stuff on screen and it was all good. It was comforting to see things in action!
      In Vitro Fertilization Working / Worked
      Had ER on 8/15 and ET on 8/18. Beta was on 8/29 and I'm pregnant!
      Lupron Working / Worked
      Put those ovaries right to sleep - constant headaches though.
      Ovulation Predictor Kit Working / Worked
      Loved it - found out I ovulated late!
      Progesterone Working / Worked
      Used the gel - took it daily. My first progesterone count was 21 at four weeks.
    • Close Twins, Triplets & More

      Went through IVF in August. Now pregnant with twins - due date May 8th.

    • Open Parenting Newborns & Infants (0-1)

      Delivered premature but healthy baby boy twins on March 31, 2009!!!

      Treatments

      Breast Feeding Working / Worked
      Learning how to breastfeed both at once!!
      Patience Working / Worked
      Now trying to get my hubby to understand what patience is.
      Research Working / Worked
      Reading everything I can get my hands on.
