Stressing. Need advice Ovidrel Trigger and TI.

Lauren79

I triggered this morning.  DH and I did the deed last night.  My RE told us not to do it again until Tuesday, tomorrow night.  By the time DH and I get home and put DD to bed, it will be past the 36 hours since I have triggered.  We are talking about meeting home tomorrow afternoon if need be.

After doing some googling, I found where Duke Fertility clinic has their patients have sex 12 hours after trigger and 36 hours after trigger.  We can do this, but now I am stressing over DH's supply.  DH has no issues with his sperm.

What would you do?  Should we do it tonight and tomorrow night or just wait and do it tomorrow.  I think my RE might have been a little off on the times but not 100% sure. 

Thanks ladies.

If your DHs swimmers are good then you should be fine.  So hopefully his will live up to 5 days so the lasts nights will be ready and waiting for your egg.  Also, you will ovulate right at 36 hours so even if you are a little after the 36 hours the egg should live up to 24 hours. We know your 2 things have no trouble meeting up so I would wait.  

My DHs sperm has always been stellar, but the one time we had sex too close to his SA his count came back a little lower than normal.  Food for thought. 

GL with what you decide!!

Ahhh, I don't know what to do.  I think we are going to meet home around 4pm tomorrow and then do Wednesday am.  We have done it everyday for the past 3 days because we kept thinking I would be ready to trigger, lol.  So I think waiting and letting it build up is the better option.  

Thanks for helping me decide!

Last month, we did Letrozole/TI, and we didn't follow the nurse's instructions to just go every other day.  We added an extra one in there, and of course we got a bfn for our trouble!  I guess maybe the quality of the sperm (or number of swimmers?) is affected.  So, if I were in your shoes, I would probably wait until Tuesday, but try to go for the afternoon rather than wait til bedtime.

Also, I'm so sorry about the coincidence in dates (your other post).  That is so hard.  We have had four losses, and every one of them was either due in November or mc'ed in November.  And if we are pregnant this cycle, I calculated the EDD based on ovulation date since we triggered.  It will (of course) be due in November, and (of course) on November 30 which was the day of my d&c when we lost a baby girl to Trisomy 4.  I sincerely feel your pain on that.  Hang in there and know you are not alone.

We did every other day around the trigger.  I would not over-analyze it.

Thanks for all the support. 

We ended up meeting at home arounf 4pm yesterday afternoon.  Thank goodness we did.  My ovaries felt like they were on fire and about to pop out of my sides last night.  If we had waited, I would have been miserable.  Still have cramping today but not as bad.  Will do it one more time tonight just in case, but I am officially in the 2WW.
