    We did at home insemination with my 2nd bc i was having extreme pain during intercourse at that time. We knew there was no way we could afford fertility treatment n i really didn't need it bc the issue had nothing to do with fertility. I started looking for at home options. I was skeptical but was willing to try. It was really basic. I didnt purchase a kit. I just used ovulation strips from cvs n bc i am a nurse i was able to get some things from work. I got medicine droppers (like the ones they give u with kids rxs at the pharmacy) for the insemination n a bunch of sterile urine specimen cups to catch the sperm. I got pregnant the second month!! From my experience I think one of the most important parts is being sure to lay on your back with a pillow under your butt n raise your legs for a good half hour n DONT MOVE!! Also (and i hope im not being too graphic) but having an org*sm after insemination really increases your chances!! Good luck to all that wish to give this a try. Be patient..be diligent..it DOES work..i have a 10yo little boy to prove it lol!!

    I absolutely love your approach. This is honestly the first time I've heard a fertility expert address the issue of intercourse between hetero couples. I have felt isolated and unusual in this because it isn't spoken about. We have intercourse ok but my husband has difficulty climaxing inside of me. He even often needed me to leave the room because of the perceived pressure. We have been manually inseminating for years. Would like to understand the advantages of this kit over simply manually inserting fresh sperm and massaging the cervix.

    I'm in a same sex relationship and we tried Mosie baby with fresh donor sperm for 5 cycles without success (2-3 inseminations each cycle). Normal ovulation tracked with Premom and Clearblu OPK, tubes patent, normal semen analysis. We used Modern Fertility for labs and Fellow for sperm analysis beforehand.
    We ended up going to a fertility clinic and became pregnant with our first and third IUI using clomid for superovulation.
    I LOVE that you are educating people and that you partnered with Mosie baby, which is such a great company. I've had friends who had success with this kit. I wish it would have worked for us. But happy we are pregnant!

    My periods are completely regular (clockwork) after almost 10 years of secondary unexplained infertility I have found out that I am not ovulating and also have a luteal phase defect. Even though I get 1 rapid LH surge a month I still apparently don't ovulate. So even if your cycles are regular and are getting a positive LH surge doesn't mean you are ovulating and everything is fine...

    • @milumav
      @milumav 3 дня назад

      Except that has to be done by a trained fertility specialist or midwife to avoid dragging bacteria through the cervix into the uterus which can cause pid. In a clinic they even wash the vaginal canal before inserting the catheter through the cervix and into the uterus to avoid dragging some of the natural vaginal bacterial flora up into the upper reproductive tract.
      All of this costs a lot of money and time as appointments often come with lengthy wait times, and women are at the mercy of the doctor's/clinic's schedule, which often leads the doctor to use ovulation "trigger shots" to force ovulation rather than work around the woman's natural cycle.
      All of that expensive, time consuming, stressful mess is exactly what home insemination is meant to avoid.

    The Self Conception Kit from MakeAmom exceeded our expectations. It was easy to clean and reuse, making our journey stress-free. Now, we're eagerly awaiting our little one!
