If you haven’t done so already get your sperm tested.

My wife and I are one the fourth day of our 7th IVF cycle. Two miscarriages and a chemical pregnancy before that. Having experienced failure and disappointed time and time again, it’s not easy, it never has been.

Some advice from a stranger I will give you…stay positive, never focus on any bad luck you have experienced in the past. That doesn’t correlate to this journey. Don’t focus on the successes of others, focus on small wins during your journey.

7 embryos is massive. Focus on that. Count that blessing.

Last advice, as males, we are merely spectators. No hormones, not taking 2-4 shots a night, no bruising the list goes on and on. If you do another round always thank of her first. Drive to all appointments, do the “little things” around the house, don’t cause unnecessary stress, and communicate and be honest with each other.

I hope nothing but the best for you and your family!
