>Any comments or suggestions???Dear Gina: I also have secondary fertility. I had one daughter in 94, 2 miscarriages since then and trying for number 2. My husband also got semen tested - he's fine. After my first miscarriage, I had a laparoscopy done, and it showed I had scar tissue due to my c-section. He lazered it right out. When I didn't ovulate afterwards, I was put on Clomid. Miscarried at 10 weeks. That was in December, have been trying again since then without help, but nothing. Now I'm doing the Clomid again, baby aspirin to help with thinning of blood (helps to prevent miscarriage), also did robitussin while trying to conceive (to enhance fertility mucus), as well as the BBT charts!! The only side affect I Noticed from Clomid was slight leg cramps. But now I am also on progesterone suppositores and have blown up to look like I am 5 months pregnant!! Don't know if this time took yet, will know Tuesday.

Hope this helps - and please e-mail anytime!!
