So I met with the RE this morning to have my WTF meeting.

30 July 2013

basically our issue is still bens sperm. his count is much much better but the quality of the sperm is worse, it went from fair to poor. I don't know what to do. he's changed his diet, basically stopped drinking (until last week), and isn't drinking any caffiene or sugar. the doctor said keep at it and if we want to do IVF again in the future we should do another semen analysis first to see how his sperm is doing.

he did say that it’s totally possible for us to get pregnant on our own, but we have to figure out a way to increase the quality of Bens sperm for that to happen.

I called Ben after the appointment and told him what the dr. said and he is just so upset because our problem is his fault.

I hoped my conversation with him would give him hope, but I think it made things worse.

  1. Hey not sure if this will help or not - but my Dh had the same issues - nothing helps and we went to see a Urologist and he did Varricole (sp?) surgery on DH and his counts went up - not a huge amount - but enough to where we did not have to do ICSI for our IVF. Just thought I would throw that out there - not sure if you had a consult with a urologist yet but they have ones that specialize in infertility.
