Norovirus concerns

in TTC After a Loss
I'm on CD 4 right now, and my husband and I have just recently had norovirus in the past few days with fevers. I'm wondering if this could affect his sperm or my eggs. If we were to conceive this month, would it possibly lead to a miscarriage if his sperm was weakened from the virus? I've already had 2 miscarriages this year and I can't bare the thought of having another.

    My DH and I both had fevers when we conceived #2. I know we had an mc with that one but I am positive it was from the baby implanting on a fibroid and lack blood supply. And I have read that things that happen now don't affect sperm now it is more like in 3 months. I will try to find where I read that, it might have been in tcoyf.

    @heatherwilson321 I have also read that a cold/fever will not damage sperm. It's safe TTC while DH is sick. Hope this helps :)

    @stephann85 - I also read somewhere the 3 month thing.  I can't remember where it was either, but I don't think it was tcoyf.  But I'm of no help as to where.

    Here is a source... not sure it is the original one I read or not but figured it is better than nothing.
