What would you do? Husband is infertile

Question

You and your husband were trying to have a baby and find out he is infertile. You both want to have a child so you ask if he would be open to a sperm donor and he say no way. He wants to adopt instead but you desperately want a child of your own and you are open to doing a adoption as well As a sperm donation so you can get pregnant and have a child of your own. What would you do?

Answer

Maybe adopt and revisit the situation later? I do see what you’re saying you want to experience pregnancy and birth and have that part of you. It’s a tough situation

Answer

It might make you feel better to biologically have your own child, but what about your husband? I’m sure he wishes he could make his own child(ren) too. Try to think about him too

Answer

I’d try to talk him into the sperm donor thing. I don’t think he’s being fair to you by not letting you carry a child like you want. It’s not his fault he’s infertile, but that doesn’t mean you have to live your life like you are infertile too. There’s just nothing like getting to carry a child. I personally had such a strong desire to as well so I understand why you’d want to.

Answer

I would adopt. The kid will be yours anyways, plus there are so many kids that need homes. And good homes.

Answer

I wouldn’t leave my husband.
I had fertility issues and I was finally able to conceive via IVF.
When things weren’t working out he said to me that we would be together forever, with or without children.
I wanted to adopt if things weren’t working but he said he would only adopt after having bio kids.
We are also not ethically agreeing with surrogacy, so that option was out of the question for us.

Answer

I only get one life on this earth and there are things I want. I want to carry and birth my own baby. At least once. If my husband was infertile that’s ok! However if he declined a sperm donor he is declining me of experiencing something truly beautiful in this one life I have to experience it. I don’t believe in divorce but it’s not the end of the world if you get one. Adoption is still someone else’s sperm? If it’s a hard no it’s ok to leave. You will heal from the relationship and find someone or you can do it on your own. Just because your married doesn’t mean your forced out of your dreams.
