Thanks so much for all your replies. I appreciate all the information, both scientific and anecdotal, as well as the encouragement. There are obviously numerous factors to consider. It's good to hear from people who are similarly situated. My fertility specialist mentioned that he has a disproportionate number of lawyers among his patients. He thinks it's because of stress. I'm still of the belief that infertility causes stress more than stress causes infertility, but both are probably true.

P.S.: Burger, you were probably kidding about the turkey baster, but that's generally not a good idea because of the risk of introducing air into the uterus. IUI's aren't very expensive (less than $500) and are a much safer method of artificial insemination.
