some may recognize me from ttc threads so apologies for repetition.
we've been together for 11 years, married for 7, have ds 3.8 and been ttc for no 2 for nearly 16 months.
DH had a sperm test two weeks ago and has had a phone call and a letter from the surgery saying that he needs to see the gp to discuss the result. Obviously we're both thinking now that this means that the result isn't good and potentially might mean we won't be able to have another baby.
DH has been very down about this, I know he kind of takes it personally and sees it as his failing, and two nights ago he told me that although he knows I love him, he wouldn't blame me if this changed the way I feel about him and wanted to leave him to find someone who could give me a baby.
I've told him how much I love him, I wouldn't change what we have for the world, he's a great husband and a wonderful father and I really don't think I'd ever find another man like him. I've told him all this, but he's just so down on himself now and he feels as if he's failed me.
How else can I convince him that I wouldn't leave him even if I was offered a baby on a plate by another man?
In part I feel responsible as I've been going on about having another baby for the past 16 months and so he knows how much it means to me, but we already have one beautiful ds, although it'll be sad if we can't have another, it's certainly not the end of the world or the marriage.
