On to plan C?
I have to start off by saying I find this "community" as well as similar ones on TN and TB, so helpful! I am very grateful to all of you who are willing to share your stories and experiences with the rest of the group. Thank you all so much!
As some of you may or may not know, my IF diagnosis is DOR (see siggy). DH and I had 2 unsuccessful IUI's with Clomid over the summer (Plan A). To make matters worse, my response to Clomid with the second cycle was virtually non-existent. Since we moved and had a pretty stressful last 6 or so months, the decision was to stop with the charting, OPK's and fertility tx until we can be in a better place financially to do IVF (hopefully, 7/2014).

Any pointers or things I should look out for? Also, do any grads have extra test strips for CBFM that I can buy off of you?
P.S. IF sucks!

I never tried using them to keep stuff up there after ST; DH said he could feel it in there the one time we tried having ST during AF with one in place (to prevent any mess).

"You know you're in love when you don't want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams." - Dr. SeussI have heard of other people using them after ST to hold everything in, although I know that they are not FDA approved for that purpose. I'm actually thinking about getting a Diva cup for AF, but haven't gotten the courage yet.
