Got DH SA Results...Pretty Angry and Upset

0, zero, nothing. I can't freaking believe it. It's not the first time DH has had a zero count but, we really thought there would be something to freeze but, no nothing.

I got the phone call while waiting on our playdate to show up at the park. My DH was pretty disappointed. He's ready and willing to move forward with donor sperm but, I'm not there yet.

We are going to change clinics. There is another clinic around here that is supposed to be really good with MFI and they have a urologist on staff. They have many procedures they can do to try to find sperm. I am so far from being able to accept this.  It's harder to accept now that we have Isabel.  For now, I (dh is up for whatever) will not accept this.

Because of money (it's always money) we are going to wait and make an appointment in January so we can get through Christmas with out spending an arm and a leg on finding sperm. 

This just effing sucks

    You know I know how you feel.  But if you were able to conceive Isabel then I have faith you'll be able to conceive another with your DH's sperm.  Here's hoping it happens sooner rather than later!
    Childhood cancer (DH) + chemo + radiation = 0 sperm.
    LO #1 - 1 unmedicated/self-monitored IUI w/ donor sperm.
    LO #2 - 1 m/c, 2 BFNs, 4th IUI worked (unmedicated/self-monitored with new donor sperm).
    Life is beautiful!

    That sucks.  DH has zero sperm counts about half the time.  The other half the time they are single digit counts.   It is frustrating.  Can he try again soon?  My DH had a zero count, and 5 days he tried again and they found some. 

    I just wanted to add that I though we were going to have to cancel our upcoming IVF cycle b/c his first SA showed no sperm (we found out when they credited our credit card, nice huh?) but he did two more samples and got a "2" and "3" count.  For our IVF next week he will give a fresh sample the day before, and the day of my ER.  I'm hoping and praying he is having a good day.

    Funny enough that pretty much happened to us too. We figured this was the case yesterday when we were only charged to the wash and not the storage. When DH has a count he is also in the single digits.

    BEST of luck to you and your upcoming cycle...and your dh's count!

    (((Hugs)))  So sorry to hear that you got that kind of news.  I'm not sure if he has the same issue, but some friends of ours were told that they would have never have children since he didn't have sperm.  They were able to surgically extract some sperm and now she's due any day with b/g twins.

    It's good to hear that worked for your friend! That will be our next step if the next SA gives the same results. DH about passed out when I was telling him about it:)~ Congrats to you friend, I hope we get similar results!

    I am so sorry :( HUGS.... can they retest in a month to find something?
    Married on 3.20.2004. It took 30 month, 2 failed adoptions and IVF for our first miracle. We have had 9 foster kids since he was born and started the domestic adoption process when he was 10 month old, we had 4 failed matches in that time. After our daughter was born we brought her home and spent 2 weeks fearing we might lose her because of complications that came up. But Praise God all went through and she is ours forever!

    I'm glad their story gives you some hope.  They were told all kinds of awful things from a medical "professional" who frankly didn't know what she was talking about.  It caused him to become very depressed and scared.  But, they ended up getting referred to the proper place and doctors who helped them achieve their dream of becoming pregnant. They had been TTC for around 11 years.
