We have been trying for 14 months now to conceive with no luck. After visiting the OB/GYN she looked at my charts and said that I am ovulating normally, but has put me on Clomid to help.
The current issue seems to lye with DH. I want him to get a sperm count and check to make sure he is good. Just as another thing to check off the list of things that could be wrong.
He refuses to talk to his doctor about it, and says the home tests are too expensive. He is 25 and retired military and I am 99% sure that his pride is the only reason he hasnt talked to his doc yet. He seems to be making sure that there is 100% no way it could be something wrong with me before he will agree to go get checked. But it could take years to prove that I am 100% ok and nothing is wrong, as well as several hundreds of dollars in medical tests.
How can I make him more comfortable or understanding that this would be something really small that could make a huge impact on our stress levels and prove one way or another that maybe its just a timing issue?
