So last night I emailed doogie about my concerns w/the SA. He basically said the SA checks the bodies ability to make sperm to make sure there's not a problem w/that process. But, the test can't check the sperm's ability ti fertilize an egg-only ivf can do that. He said that the 2 grade refers to the overall appearance of the sperm, but that there are going to be plenty of sperm that move well. He said that this is one of the reasons though why iui doesn't have a high success rate-all they're doing is putting the sperm closer to the egg, but the rest is up to nature. So, this makes me feel a lot less hopeful about this cycle. I'm not gonna get negative though, cuz I did get pg a year ago, so obviously its possible & the iui may be just what we need to fix the problem. Maybe his slow swimmers have had a hard time getting past the cervix in time to catch the egg.

Jenny-sorry you're not feeling well! But that's usually a good sign that your hormones are increasing like they should.

Ok-slight correction. Doogie said there's no test that can tell us 1. Whether the sperm can reach the egg, or 2. Fertilize the egg. He also mentioned the "it only takes 1 to fertilize the egg..."

That's seriously one of the most maddening things is that there are so many things that can go wrong in TTC and they can't find them all. Well, here's hoping they just need a push closer.

No I don't think that's silly at all. After chemicals you are very careful not too get too excited too quickly. I know everything will be ok for you though:) Can't wait too talk more with you on the EC that's all !
