Jess- we are going to talk with our PCP, our VR dr recommends trying the testosterone injections. We are low enough that he has plenty of room to go up, and if he feels better... I might even try to get DH a urologist here, depending on what the PCP says

Kristen – My DH’s Testosterone was a little low so his doctor put him on Clomid. It’s supposed to help bring your numbers up. We’ll have another SA done in a few weeks and see if his swimmers have multiplied! FX! Misty – a BOY! Congrats!!!! Christie – LOL, my DH is an overgrown, oversexed, perverted teenager, too! I’m accustomed to it now, though, and wouldn’t want him to be any different! AFM – I took my last dose of clomid last night – hooray! I had an easy time with it – a few headaches here and there, but only one that was really nasty (after the first dose.) I also had some night sweats/hot flashes – though I didn’t realize they were clomid related until last night. Brilliant. My DH is out of town, so I am going to catch up on Teen Mom tonight – looking forward to that

Mandy- that is right, I had forgotten clomid could be used that way. Wonder why we were told just testosterone injections.
Warning to all- do not tell Dh that you want fettuccine Alfredo, then eat a piece of salmon, 2 servings of alfredo, a large serving of mango/jicama chutney and a tall glass of apple juice. I feel gross now

Mandy - I make my dh watch Teen Mom with me. I guess he gets out of it this week since he is out of town. I'm sure that doesn't hurt his feelings a bit lol.

Nancy, stay warm! Gotta admit, though the weather isn't always perfect here in WA, your post reminds me of another reason I'm glad we're not living in SD anymore.

I just paid the $500 deposit ;D for Dr. Wilson this morning and am now waiting for either something to open up the first week in May or have to wait until the first week in June become available. I have a feeling this is going to get really annoying and officially give me OCD! because I totally don't have it NOW! We decided to do a quick trip down with his little car(save mega gas) and stay 2 nights and then drive back (less hotel stays, less nights of boarding 3 dogs, and less opportunity to eat fast food and restaurant meals $cha-ching). It is only an 8 hour drive. It will also save us about $800. The drive initially freaked me out as it seemed like an excruciatingly long drive then DH reminded me that it isn't even as bad as driving back and forth to family things in SD over a long weekend. That does make it better. I am overwhelmed with emotions about this all today I am a big chicken. Period! Bock-bock, cluck cluck, I even gave him the out and said if you really don't want to do this I am fine with it and he said absolutely "push PAY!" So I did...here we go. I have that tingly butt/queasy stomach feeling just like when you feel the first lurch forward after getting on the worst roller coaster imaginable--the point of no return, KN! Breathe!! Hope everyone is having a good day! Oh crud...it just dawned on me that now I really have to kick it into high gear and lose these extra "comfort" pounds and avoid the junk! 3 1/2 months--25 pounds--doable but it isn't going to be fun!

Carrie, congratulations!!!! I know you're nervous as heck now, but it really will be done before you know it. I'm so hoping that you get a super quick BFP.

Yay for scheduling a date, Carrie! June will be here before you know it, but that would be fantastic if you can stalk his schedule for a sooner date. this is so exciting!! Ladies, I am on EPO this cycle and WOW! I forgot how well it works, lol! I took it to counteract the hostile CM that clomid causes in 30% of women who use it and seems to be doing just that. DH comes home from Canada Friday morning. I hope I don't O before then. I'm not due to O until next week, but I'm not sure if that will change due to the clomid. All I know is that I am feeling very optimistic right now which is a complete 180 from where I was last week. I don't mind this clomid at all. I have been in a great mood (the running helps that, no doubt - that was for you, Nancy) and haven't had any headaches or other side effects. I'm not looking forward to having to get up at 6am on a Saturday to have my follies scanned, but I'll get over that Hope you all are having a happy day!

Thanks! I have got figure out how not to let this consume me! Literally have checked into the appointment page about 15 times since this morning! Everytime I set my kids to recess or a special and then right before they come back! Ack! If I am this bad now I will be in a straight jacket by mid summer!

Carrie- i completely get what your saying. I offered to cancel the apt and lose the deposit at least 3 times seriously. It will fly by, just put it to the back of your head and keep trucking. Shel- Awesome attitude.. Positive thoughts create positive things~ Nancy- yep, I'm bragging....LOL. I love spring, my favorite season. However, DH doesn't, I seem to spend a lot of extra $ this time of year, buying all the frilly details for the house, garden, patio etc. Oh well, it's once a year, get over it! :-) Mandy- what did you find out about the red raspberry tea you posted on BBC? Just curious! AFM- I'm 6lbs down and feeling great. I've decided to commit to myself and get rid of this extra padding before anything else happens. I posted a website under my siggie and this is how I'm doing it! Advocare baby! Today marks 4 weeks post op. DH is happy to be able to get back to the gym. We have a date there tomorrow night while the kids are at ball. Anyone else DH"s keep asking daily "you pregnant yet?" ?? Made me laugh at first, until I realized he was serious! Did he miss that part of anatomy? So freaking funny. However, I will say, I honestly had no where's near the amount of knowledge of the female reproductive system as I do now when I had my kids. It just happened! Amazing thinking about that now! Kews- April got a BFP yesterday. Feb is a happening month! maybe you'll be next! Tiff- When your finished with that painter send him my way! I hate painting but see it comng in the near future.
