Ttc but just found out husband may be infertile!
So here I am in my tww. AF due on Valentine’s Day. I just turned 30 and my husband is 31. We’re both very healthy and I just never thought it would take very long for us. We’ve been trying since November, which isn’t that long I’ve come to find out. But still I was hopeful this month. I was going to test on Friday.. what a nice little Valentine’s Day surprise it would be! But yesterday my husband went in to the urologist for some pelvic pain that’s been slowly progressing over the past year. He knew he had one varicocele and chalked it up to that, but I urged him to get checked out anyway. I read up on it and ordered a sperm count from online for him to do. It showed a light line which the directions indicated his count was fine. But we don’t know anything about the quality. Anyway, during the exam the urologist found that he has another varicocele on the other side, and prostatitis! When I found out I immediately knew there was no way I could be pregnant, so I cried, took a test, and we both had some wine. I’m really upset because for the first time I’m facing the very real possibility that I will never be a mother, carry my own child. I just never never expected this. I always thought “sure I’ll have kids, maybe 2 or 3,” like it’d be totally easy and happen right away. I took for granted that I’d have kids. Anyway, hubby is going to do a semen analysis on Wednesday and got some antibiotics for the prostatitis. He said the doc didn’t say what caused it. Seems random. Anyone else have a husband who has had that? I’m praying so hard that the results of the semen analysis come back good. Sorry for the ramble, I just needed a place to get my feelings and thoughts out.
