I'm glad I found this board!  I started at TTC, then hopped over to adoption, then to foster parenting, and now I'm here.  I was also at some debate boards, but it's scary there.. I try to stay away from them, but I end up going back, arghh.  Anyway, my husband and I have a 6 year old son and now we can't get pregnant.  We've been trying for over a year, and have not been using BC for three years now.  We found out that my husband's sperm quality is at 97% abnormal.  It was at 99% and he was taking fertility supplements as the doc recommended, but it only improved 2% in 3 months.  The doctor doesn't understand why it would only improve that much, but he acts like it's a good thing that it has improved and says it'll continue.  I am not as hopeful as the doctor. 

Well, it will be interesting to see what happens.  We are starting foster parenting classes this Monday.  It's something we want to do to keep our heads out of this TTC disappointment.

Hi Amber

You have "hopped" to the right board. The ladies here are super smart and super supportive.

DH and I have been ttcing our third for over a year. I finally went to the doc and I am not Oing. So off we go to a fertility doc in January.

I am crossing all my crossables that your Dh's sperm continues to improve. What kind of supplements is he on?

Amanda,
Thanks. He's been taking fertile aid for men for about 2 months. We just can't figure out why it would only improve 2%.

I do hope you get to O soon!

Angie,

Thank you for the warm welcome. We are excited about the foster parenting and I'll let you all know how it goes. I've been pretty positive lately about not being able to conceive. Some days are hard, especially when all of my friends and family are having babies. It is nice to talk to other women who are in the same shoes as myself. A lot of people tend to give you the comment "Well, at least you already have a child." I was so happy to see an article in Parent's magazine about Secondary Infertility!
