Hi all,
After my endometrial biopsy in June, my RE said I have a luteal phase defect and tried Clomid with IUI for four cycles. They all failed (even though I produced good follicles and DH's washed sperm count is close to infinity), so now he recommended that I have a laparoscopy and depending on the outcome either try three more rounds of IUI with Clomid and then move on to IVF, or go straight to IVF.
Two questions:
1) The Lap is tenatively scheduled for a Monday - how many days should I take off of work? and
2) Based on your experiences, do you have any thoughts on his recommended course of action?
Thanks!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Regarding work I would take off at least 3 days. If you have any issues and end up hospitalized like I did then I would take a week, but I am praying you wont have to deal with that!
GOOD LUCK and PRAYERS!!!
