My husband and I have been trying to conceive for over a year now. I've only talked to my OBGYN about it once and he told me to chart my temps so he can make sure I'm ovulating. Also, he told me to have my husband come in for a sperm analysis, but my husband already has a child that is 2 years old so we know it's not him.
After that initial visit, I heard about Ovulation Predictor Kits so I got some of them. I have never gotten a positive. I used one every day of my last cycle with no positive result. This month I decided to try to chart so that I would have some proof for the doctor, but I can never seem to remember to do it! I work 3rd shift, so my sleeping schedule is very unpredictable. I just don't think it's going to work charting my temps with my schedule like this... Is there any other way to get him to give me Clomid ? I KNOW this is what I need!! And after a year, I'm starting to get quite down about it... I'd like to start on Clomid ASAP!
Thanks!

Your doctor shouldn't require you to chart before he'll see you... Why don't you tell him that you suspect you might not be ovulating at all & have him do blood tests to check your hormone levels.
One more point - the fact that your husband has a 2 year old makes it very likely that his sperm is not the problem, but things do change sometimes, so I wouldn't rule it out without having him tested.
