My poor OH had his first SA today and is traumatised!

Hi Guys,

So my husband went for his first check up today + had to give his first sample. The poor thing he was really nervous, but he was just getting on with it.
He literally came back green and shaky + said it is the worst things he had to go through. I just feel so bad for him.
We have been TTC for over a year and a half + we said we would get the ball rolling + get checked out, he wants to go get checked out before me.
I feel so sorry for him, I know it is what we have to do, but the whole process is so demeaning. He said he felt so embaressed, even though he was reassured by other guys being there and obviously for the same thing.
The good thing is he did manage to give a sample, but here is the worst part, the nurse he had to give the sample too made a comment about how poor it was the silly cow, i would love to get my hands on her!! how insensitive. she could have just said nothing.
So he came home + he is so down I know he will be fine, but he has to go back in a couple of weeks + I dont know how either of us are going to cope
The things we have to go through for a little bambino

 

Thanks Ald. Yes that is true, it will never be as bad as the first time.
They said the results will take up to a week, he thinks, god love him, he said he was in so much shock, he only remembers bits, lol, poor thing. But he knows he has to do a 2nd one in 2 weeks.
Its just awful, i felt so bad, the more I was thinking about the whole process, its such a horrible thing to have to do, especially for a man i spose. I know it will be all worth it + we'll have some answeres.
Also i think for the 2 of us, it is the start of the unknown + it is so scarey. Oh well we are not alone

 

Thanks guys

Yes fingers crossed. Now it's a waiting game.

My oh is feeling alot better today, the shock has lifted.
