Friday was cd 15, and my opk was almost positive. Really dark line but not quite positive, and was having lots of egg white cm, so we went for it. Might have been too early, but Monday would have been too late. The damn weekend got in the way, since sperm place isn't open on weekends. <BR/><BR/>The Dr. said I was ovulating based on the position of my cervix, but I have very little confidence in my Dr. I'm just going to her because my insurance referred me and they pay for part of it. <BR/><BR/>I don't mean to sound so negative, I'm actually quite hopeful after the IUI.<BR/><BR/>Sounds like you are on for Tuesday, and are on top of all the O signs. Yay!

Meghan, ...Thank you all so much for your comments! Meghan, I appreciate the info. My RE was saying the same thing about morphology (and ours was only 1%), so I hope that there's some truth to it. Strangely, S's motility was pretty normal.sarah23https://www.blogger.com/profile/05898197158558142894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2070321203874350874.post-24460835456806051022007-12-02T17:33:00.000-08:002007-12-02T17:33:00.000-08:00Hey Sarah, hope you check thisMr H's initial SA ca...Hey Sarah, hope you check this<BR/><BR/>Mr H's initial SA came back with 6% morph, according to the strict standards. My gyno said that was way to low and immediately refered us to an RE and said (and I quote) "we'd be lucky to get an IVF baby". Needless to say, I was not happy. Our RE says that the jury really is out on morph, he says it does not seem to interfere with actually fertilizing an egg but it may impede swimming. He said with only our morph low, there was no reason for us not to start with IUI, since the sperm don't have to travel as far. And that is wasn't necessarily what was stopping us from getting pregnant....hence the unexplained diagnosis. <BR/><BR/>Hope that helps, let me know if you have any more questions. I did a ton of research on it back in March when we got diagnosed.
