I don't think we're supposed to do half...am I wrong?

 

Example 3cc/ml of semen to 1.5 (as low as 1.3 no lower) of sugar water.  A 2:1 ratio. NOT 3cc:3cc (half and half) a 1:1 ratio

This is what I was thinking to.

So we have 2cc (most of the time) and I add 1cc or 0.9 sw. 

rebirtha  I see you have the light on my is just not there.My looks like on Nicole pic.

Ok I take a pic for you how we do it .lol

This tube is cut a little short ,we can live it longer.

 

After 60 min. I can stand it up and live it in the incubator until I check the sample. So my poor boy spermie don't have to be out in the cold. 

 where's the hole Flava? I don't see it!

flava, can you take a pic of it with the tube out and show the whole tube?. I think we all have a different tube (with a wide plastic stand on the base) your's looks like it is conical (pointy).

I  think a hole in the mesh in a brilliant idea. Maybe cut a T shape into the mesh and shape it so the tube stays at an angel.  With the base on the tube, you don't need a hole to keep it vertical.

on a side note: I switched from real milk to soy milk on my cereal and skipped my yogurt today. This is a big step for me as I've been reluctant to give up my yogurt. DH doesn't think we'll get pg this cycle on our own, but i'm working on getting clomid for next cycle, so I'll have some more time to do the diet too if he is right. If he is wrong, then our attempt will be in about 8 days.

 The tube is standing in the hole! It's really easy just ask your DH to poke 1 in there.

This is the tube I use and cute it short.

yes, we have a different tube, but that's OK, same idea. Thanks for the pic

hi everybody! Are you back from the weekend yet? I'm excited cuz I think I will O tomorrow! I cut a hole in the mesh so the tube can be safe in there at an angle. My pH is a low 4, but I'll work on it today and will do BSD before the attempt.

How are you all doing? Any experimenting going on?

gardangels:

How are you all doing?

HI!! I am doing my attempt today!!! Do the BSF!!! My PH is doing great! 8.5 this morning without BSF. did it last night before bed.

 hey do you guys think if i get the SW and EW ready now sitting in the incubator for a few hours at low temp will be OK? Dh can't get home for a few hours!

THANK YOU!!!! will let you guys know how the attempt goes later!

yes, good luck sounds perfect, so excited for you. It's great to get the sw and EW ready early. REally saves time later. Take pix of the semen so we can see where your little boy came from!!

 

Looks like we'll be going for it tonight too. I have tons of EWCM and OPK is positive (much darker this afternoon than this am). It might be a little early but I just feel like this is the time so think of me in my kitchen tonight and think blue thoughts!!
