It's okay thanks. He did only one insemination and asked me to meet with my husband the second day in other to cover the cycle. This 2 weeks seems like eternity to me, I can't just keep my mind off it. My office wears are somehow tight on the waist, please do u know whether it's bad for me. Though I feel comfortable in them but i don't know whether I need to make my waist line free.

believer84: Hi OKZ8 i was stimulated with clomid at first but didn't respond 2 well so d doc added some injections(can't rem d name nw) and I responded in a jiffy.I had back to back insemination that's 2wice.day one of iui and 18 hours later,nothing more. I was/currently insertin cyclogest suppositories twice daily.
I only rested on the second day of the IUI therefater I just continued my daily activities.Work/School.
I will be honest with you my sister,I did nothing special or extra.I prayed yet had doubts in mind but God pleasantly surprised me.
B4 d bfp, felt occasional cramps in my ovaries and vagina then saw the implantation bleeding on day 12. At first,I thought twas my period,but I was reassured it wasn't after it stopped.Very light,lasted 5mins.
At the end of the day,we try our best and leave the rest to God.Try developing positive thoughts and consistent prayers.
Have u done HSG, transviginal scan et al?

Thank u my sister. I did transviginal scan followed by HSG before my first IUI. The doctor said maybe it did not work because I was still bleeding due to the HSG on the day of my insemination. I did another transviginal scan on the day 10 of my cycle and the 3 largest follicles measured 20mm, 18mm and 15mm. I was then given HCG injection and did the insemination after 27hrs. I pray it work out for me this time around. Please what do u mean by back to back insemination?

please can u share with us the procedure your doctor used. I did my first IUI last month but unfortunately I didn't get a positive result. I just did the second one two days ago and I pray it will work this time around. I don't know whether total bed rest have any effect on the success rate. What did u do before and after the procedure. My doctor said I should continue with my daily activities that it doesn't have any effect on it. I need all the advise I can get in other to get a positive result this time.

chaircover: The fear of loneliness shouldn't stop you from making the right decision for you.

That's just the reason for this my post because right now I don't know the right decision to make.

jennykadry: Wait, you are 28 and he is 46? what the heck were you even thinking carrying this much baggage goodness gracious. What are you scared of? scared of your people saying "I told you so"?

Yes that's part of the reason but that's not the main reason though I'm used to hearing that now. I just feel I might regret my action if I leave and I might be lonely. I'm just scared that I don't even know what to do now.

chaircover: How old is your husband?

Thank you for having the time to reply me. He is 46yrs . @ maclatunji I'm just trying to be careful so that I won't make a costly mistake and all these things are hidden to my family and I don't know how they will take it most especially my mum. I'm so unhappy right now.

Hello the good people of Nairaland. please I'm back again. if you people can remember me on this tread https://www.nairaland.com/883596/need-advise. I'm just tired of everything now and I'm scared of what the future holds for me. my husband is a kind of man with a very kind heart and with all the stories of abuse here and there I'm scared to leave. we have a lot of issues now that I can't just stop thinking that there is no future in my marriage with him. Apart from the fact that he has low sperm count which is preventing me from having my own child, it is always difficult for him now to get and hold an erection. I'm the type of person that like been cuddled but he can't just do that. we quarrel more often than not now because I'm always hurt and I cry all the time. I'm scared to leave him because I'm so used to staying with him and I feel I might be lonely if I do. I'm just confused on what to do but I don't want to make any mistake that I will regret again. please I need your advise before I loose my mind and please this is for mature mind only. thanks

Jenny, I accept all the blame on this issue. it's all my fault, if only I have the type of sense I have now when I married him maybe I won't find myself in this condition. we met when I went to stay with my aunt for holiday and it happened that they were staying in the same compound. when i met him and his kids, his only son that happened to be the last fell in love with me, he was such a young loving boy. prior to that I had one guy I was dating which later impregnated another girl. my husband is a very nice man and then been my first man and the fact that I felt if I don't marry him the boy will suffer. I decided to go ahead. we have our differences and even sometimes I feel like leaving him to start my life all over again but i don't have the courage. somebody said earlier that I married him because of his money, that's not true because he is just a civil servant.  The question of why did I marry him, I will say I married him because I feel I have very strong love for him and the children and if I leave those lovely kids, another woman might maltreat them. Then I thought that's alone is enough reason to marry, now I know better.

@all thanks. Jenny, my doctor told me that the sickness that leads to him having low sperm count might have started after he had the children, that was the reason for the test in the first instance. The problem is not with the children as they are very wonderful and can't even do without me. I really love them and I have never treated them like my step children but I still want to have my own children.

I got married to a widower at the age of 23. he is a very wonderful man even has all my family were against the union because of his condition I still went ahead because I was madly in love with him. he has three children (one boy and two girls) and I have a very good relationship with them. we got married five years ago and after two years that I was unable to conceive we started seen a doctor. he was not going with me because according to him he already have children and that means he doesn't have any problem. I ment another doctor that insisted he must do test, he waited for another 6month before he went for the test. the result came out that he has low sperm count and low active sperm. the doctor adviced us to go for IVF but as we left there he told me the doctor doesn't know what he is taking about that low sperm count can be boosted. According to him, he later met another doctor that gave him drug and it worked. he went back to for the test in another lab and it was good. Going to 3years after this incident I'm not yet to be pregnant so he was asked to do the test again and it came out that his sperm count is still very low. I don't know what to do know as he can't definitely afford IVF and the fact that he has his own children make me to always think that my life is ruined.
