TTC with low sperm count and motility - support/advice needed

[Michtrived]

Hello Dear Ladies!!

So me and my dh just found out that (almost 2 years of trying) my fertility is fine but my husband has VERY low sperm count and motility.
Doctor is saying only IVF should work, and MAYBE IUI...

I don't know anymore what to do or think...every month for 2 years I have been trying, waiting and crying at the end of every passing month...
Its like time has stopped for me...it doesnt matter if it is 2011, 2012 or 2013 anymore...

We dont have the money for the IVF as we just bought our first house and I am not working...My age is 33...hb is 35...time is ticking and I am feeling more and more desperate as months passes by...I have no other thing but baby on my mind and find it hard to find or show interest in anything else to do...

I might have my first IUI this month in about 10 days...I will post everyone how it all went and ask for your blessings...PLEASE pray for me!!!

Baby dust to all!!

Hi hun! I'm in the exact same situation - DH's SA's have been really bad, esp motility. After assuming I was the problem for so long it was such a shock. Part of me wishes it was me bc it seems like there are so many more options when female factor. DH has been taking piles of vitamins and cutting back alcohol but unfortunaely we haven't had any improvement although I've heard lots of stories where that has worked for ppl. Anyway my dr seems to think IUI will work for us. I'm at the point where I'd rather just go ahead and do IVF. I'm turning 33 this month too and I know what you mean about that dang clock.

Anyways... I'm here if you ever want to chat. Lots of luck to you for you IUI.
