Well, we had our

appt. on Monday and it was very disappointing news for us.

Our only option to

is IVF

. My husband's

count was 23 or 28 million (can't recall which) which is good, the volume is low .7 the thing that kills us is the motility which is 17% - the

said is VERY low. IUI would be a waste of time and money he said.

said that because the motility is so low that even if they put the

by my egg they are to lazy to move. My dh wants to try different vitamins to try to improve the motility- anyone have any ideas of what kind are out there??? I have just had the heart to look at what our cost would be for IVF per time and it is $3,800 +

injection $1,200, meds $2,000 and Anesthesia of $500 total of $7,500

It is simply not an option for us at the moment. We are buying a house in May and my husband had a near fatal accident in Sept. 2001 and is blind in his left eye and has to have that eye replaced.

I have been to

to even talk about it until today. My dh was very supportive and said that if we can keep trying :bed until after we get a house, which I understand but still very

about it. So, no treatments until Sept./Oct. next year

I am trying to put a positive spin on it, like I need to lose a few pounds

anyway-I just can't bear to see anythng baby

or go to showers. I have

long enough. I will still be a part of the board because you

are such a great support system and I want to support all of you too!
