  • My husband refuses to get tested for a fertility problem! Latest reply: Aug. 5, 2012, 8:10 p.m. by

    I'm so frustrated with my husband... we've been TTC for over 7 months and he refuses to get tested for a fertility problem.

    You have to remember that he's a guy and it might be a pride thing... Plus he might be embarrassed to have to go do it in a cup.

    I understand the whole "it's embarrassing" thing but he has to man up and do his part - if there's a problem, they won't know until he gets tested too. If there isn't a problem then, yay, they can keep trying without the "what if" stress.

    40% of the time it is from poor sperm quality.

    A lot of times it is a timing thing even if the sperm quality is low. Have you tried charting your temp? Make sure that you take it the same time every day even if you go back to sleep and don't get out of bed first. Leave your thermometer right by your bed, take the temp and go back to sleep. If you are doing this much work he may be more receptive to doing his part. Also here he can do it at home so that is likely how it is where you are and that may make him feel better as well. :) Good luck!

    ok an as for the bubbles it could be trapped gas that had formed in the poop in case it is something your doc wants to check it might be a good idea to write down what she eats/drinks if not breast milk that way your doc can have something to look at and i hope it helps :)

    my husband is 31, hes wanted kids for years and never had em after trying up until we got married and already came to the conclusion we will have to adopt in the future and next thing you know im pregnant! Its the best thing that could happen to either of us and i think its due to having no expectations! just go with flow and relax! Im now due oct. 4th whoohoo!
