How long have you been TTC via DI? / how many tries?: On my first 2ww since m/c in october 2003.
TTC issues?: None on my part.
Current Protocol?: TTC at home.

We have been ttc in total now for 4.6 years. We lost our baby, Charlie, in October 2003 and have switched donors as our last donor had a genetic gene flaw which had a 50/50 chance of affecting other babies.

DH Nick 34

How long have you been TTC via DI? / how many tries? We began TTC in 1996, we both did all the tests, DH was diagnosed with azoospermia in 1997 and my tests showed nothing wrong, although my hormones were not high enough each cycle to show a complete ovulation (egg not popping every cycle)! Discussed DI but DH took forever to decide to go ahead. Our closest friends gave birth to their son in 1999 and DH realized he wanted kids and would do anything to have them. We were able to get photo matched to our donor and we got pregnant on the first try in February 2001. Taylor Renee arrived in October that year. Every one thinks she looks like DH
 
.
TTC issues? DH has azoospermia, I take seraphine (sp?) to insure ovulation (with egg).
Current Protocol? We are now in negotiation for our second child (DH is stalling again
 
??enough love/time/money??). Our donor is still available so we'll have full siblings. I hope to get pregnant this summer for an Spring 2005 baby. I have got it so planned out that I think I scared DH.
Anything else you would like to share? I love TBC and can't wait to share my TTC, PG and birth adventures. I didn't come here until after Taylor was born. I enjoy this forum so much. I hope all the best for those who continue to struggle with TTC, pray your dreams come true and know that this is the best place to come for support. All the ladies are great here, it's like having a second family.
