To answer your question...

In the fabulous comment that I just got, I was asked if we had done a post coital test. I will answer that in a minute but for those of you that don't know what a post coital is, it is a cervical mucus test that must be done within 1 to 2 days of ovulation. You and your partner have sex about 2-8 hours before your appointment and then the doc takes a speculum and opens you up and checks exactly what the sperm are doing in there. Are they alive? Are they swimming? How far have they made it? Did your hostile cervical mucus kill everything off? That sort of thing.

So, to answer your question, no we have not done a post coital. I would think that a test like that would be perfect for me as I suspect that my cervical mucus might be causing our problem, BUT I need a prescription from my OB/GYN for that and she has already dumped me and said that I need to see the fertility specialists. At the point we are at things are quickly becoming less and less covered by our insurance and we aren't quite ready to drop the big bucks at the fertility clinic.

We've decided to take the rest of the summer and continue doing what we're doing and if we still aren't pregnant by September we are going to see the official "fertility guys." My OB/GYN says if you are able to pregnant, they'll get you pregnant in 3 months (if that is true the egos on these guys must be ridiculous). Basically, in September we'll be bringing out the big guns. At that point I'm assuming they'll run more tests (such as post coital) to determine which form of assisted fertility would be best for us. Now we just have to actually make it to September!
