I really hope it's not him...

My husband is the type of guy that wants to make everything better. He is awesome like that. If I'm stressed at work, he tries to make me feel better; when I'm sick, he takes care of me. I know he has been putting the blame for our infertility issues on himself. He always cracks jokes about how he hasn't been able to "do his duty" and knock me up. He hates that I have to go through so much testing, while all he has to do is pleasure himself into a cup. Next Wednesday he gets to make his "deposit." I'm not sure how long it takes for the results, but it will definitely be before we have any answers about my (presumably) broken lady parts. I really hope his results are normal. I just know he will be devastated if he is the reason we are having trouble. I keep telling him that it is clear that I have problems too since it's pretty evident I haven't ovulated since sometime between Clinton sex scandals. But it doesn't matter to him. He will still take the blame and feel like a failure. Please God, don't let it be him.

I'm sorry you guys are going through this. I can imagine it would be so difficult to wonder what is wrong and why. I know I would feel the same as you--I would want it to be "my fault" to protect my DH. However these tests will only bring you one step closer to a baby. Good luck! -Becky19 (from BOTB :)
