hi JC, Our body temp varies at diff time of the day/night so i think it's the time u hv to try and keep constant. If u wake up 2-3am but din exactly get out of bed to do anything, it shld be fine. Most important u must take the temp before getting out of bed aka min body movement. I used to leave the temp at bedside and pop into my mouth the moment i opened my eyes.
hi gals, my cycle is really weird this month. After having 1x light spotting on Sat, i hv a bit of early fertile CM on Sun. Scratching my head, is that spotting consider implantation or ovulation spotting? Anyway, we just be KS and BD over wkend, even though we r v tired from wkend activities. Poor us... hopefully we will hv gd news this month. A long 2WW now.

Afairy & Miloqueen, Thanks girls, i guess here is the only way i can confide in, cant possible share such things with friends around as they will not understand.
lynn, Hb sperms are much of a problem. IUI were not help for us. IVF is the only options and successful rates are like 30% only [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] Jus dont understand why all these happen to me.
Amy, what blood test u taking?
JC, thanks girl, how i wish that the problem lies on me and not on HB side, cos i find that problems with e female can be solved much easier than male side.

i guess i can no longer track opk, bbt discuss all these with u girls as no matter how i track o date, i will not get a baby.
QQem, don't be despair. I'm sure there are ways to work around this. Would any of the supplements or food suggested by the rest help? e.g zinc or royal jelly tablets, tomato, fruit juice?
Continue to do some research and I'm sure there are successful cases on this forum/ internet to share advice w you. Most importantly, stay positive and don't forget we're here to lend each other support. Jiayou!

gynae hasnt mention anything about supplements and medications to improve the sperm quality. need to get Hb to see her on wed, but im not sure Hb wanna go anot as im afraid it hurts his ego/pride.
get a second opinion?
sometimes these test results might be affected by other external factors. Food your hubby eat the day before, whether u 2 BD before the test and need time to replenish the sperm...
things might not be as bad as u think. You already make the first step, so stay positive and see what the doc say.

JC, a second opinion as in see another gynae or? we did everything as instructed before the test, i guess i just need some time to accept the facts. I remember Hb's sperm was those watery kind, but didnt really regard it as a problem. As normally sperm is sticky sticky type right?
Jas, ur fren conceived naturally??

Qqem, this happened to my friend. Her body is v weak (liang) and O not every mth. Her hubby's sperm count is only 3-5%. They tried IVF but not successful on first try. Miracle happened and they managed to conceive naturally in between IVF. Their little boy is already 1+yrs. Their journey is long, ttc 5yrs with western & TCM but they never give up and always keep their spirit high. So dont give up but dont stress out you & hb too. *hug*
QQem,
Yes naturally. She told me the gynae say her hubby sperm got head no tail got tail no head seriously I dun know wat it means la but the gynae got give the hubby some med to take
About the ego thing I think ur hubby actually already let down his ego by going check up with u so u might like talk to him to go further more test or whatever I think as long as both Party wish to have kis they will try diff ways an means.

hi lynn & jas, gynae said Hb sperm is low sperm count but the issue is not really about the low sperm count but the quality, in fact, 0 sperm is normal for conceiving. normal is 10 but he had 0. motility all these also below average thats y gynae straightaway suggested Ivf. ya i heard of ppl unsuccessful ivf and eventually preggy with either Tcm or natural miraculously.
i guess naturally very hard for me as there isnt any normal sperm( mayb what u meant by got head no tail, got tail no head) by the movement is a problem too. it took 10 months for him to accept for going to the SA test. hais. i dare not stress him too much as well. by the way, any of ur hb is a smoker?

QQem, jia you and stay strong. this is a very difficult period for u.. already faced so much obstacles along your way... but u need to hang in there, ur husband will need u too...
give ur hubby a while more ba... ivf can be quite a painful process for u too.. u have us in the forum to share with u... none of my friends understand what im gg thru too

QQem,
Don't be disheartened coz I have encountered similar problem as you and I may have to go IVF too if I am unsuccessful this round.
Just to share with you, my hubby also has poor sperm quality initially and I have PCOS, endometriosis and a blocked left tube and I STILL managed to conceive my son through SO-IUI 2 years ago. However, this time round TTC #2, I am not so lucky so I guess IVF is my only route now.
Let's jia you together and do not be too stressed up. Get your hubby to eat healthily and exercise more and leave the rest to the doc to help you.

Qqem, it's gd to get second opinion. Give hb time to think and accept, agreed guys' ego is v big so be slow on him. *don't u gals think our HBs are big babies to us*
Not sure about how medical this is proven, but no harm to follow, who knows it might improve sperm quality/quantity. Wear loose pants, boxers; dont use laptop on your lap and if u hv to, use a pillow as backing to reduce direct heat fr laptop. This applies to ladies too as told by polyclinic nurse during 1 of my routine checkups. TCM helps, as i read low sperm count can be improve via herbs & healthy diet eg milk, combine with gd exercise. Jia you!
