Great News!
DH’s urologist wanted him to get another semen analysis and some blood work to try and find what was wrong with his motility. He said sometimes a man will get a bad analysis but will re-test and get a good one. He said as long as you can get a good one, it means [...]

CD 13…..I must be getting close to ovulation. I usually ovulate on day 16 – 17….but I have (last cycle) as early as day 14, and as late (August when I was traveling) as CD 27.
DH and I are BDing every other day now until I confirm O. And even then we might do it [...]
