Hello all,
My husband and I have been married for three years, and we are ready to start our family. We have been trying for four months now with no luck.
I think I know what the problem is. This is a very delicate issue.
My husband has a very, very small penis. I won't say the exact size, but it is quite tiny. I am very satisfied, but I worry that his sperm can't get deep enough inside me to get me pregnant. It all comes out when I stand up.
I know this may get a chuckle, but I was thinking of using a long syringe--no needle of course, ouch!--to get his sperm up where they need to be.
I have not told him about my concerns yet because I do not want to hurt his feelings about his size. Does anyone have any ideas on how to bring this up to him? If there is any way I could avoid citing his size as the issue, that would be wonderful.
Thanks in advance for your time!
Ann

In case this isn't mud I offer you the following advice:
Read the newbie link at the top of the board. Are you timing intercourse with your FW? This will increase your chances of conception. You should probably talk to your doctor before using any syringe methods! You could be doing more harm than good.
Four months is not a long time to be TTC!
I'm too hungover for this Sh!t today.

If she got seminal fluid in her uterus, that would cause severe cramping. there's a reason doctor's wash sperm before an IUI.
Size doesn't matter and 4 months is not enough time for concern (we've been TTC for 16 months). Sperm do shoot up inside you, no syringe is required. .
Trying since Jan 2011. Unexplained IF.
2 IUIs = BFN.
1 IVF (Dec 2013) = BFN.
FET, 2 frosties (June 13, 2014)
14dp5dt-June 27 -BFP, beta 2061. 2nd beta >5000, 3rd beta >5000, 2 sacs 06/30.
Twin Girls - 02/11/15 - at 37 weeks (no NICU, home with me at 3 days).
Wrong, qu33fing saves lives! Holding in your qu33f kills!
I know they aren't cleaning anything - I'm saying that could have caused the cramping. There is a reason DOCTOR'S wash sperm before an IUI, seminal fluid isn't meant for the uterus.
hahaha

Awesomely epic! Love it.
