I know this has been asked before...

but what are your DH's doing to increase your chances for bfp? Vitamins? Specific diet? Any info is appreciated, thanks!

My DH has always taken vitamins. But I've also noticed that he isn't drinking his nightly wine (or at least that much) on our BD nights.

Re: I know this has been asked before...

I talked my DH into taking a multi-vitamin. And he knows that he's "on-call" during parts of my cycle. But that's about it. There's not much for them to really "do" other than get themselves as healthy as possible, KWIM?

We arent doing anything....Im not even using OPK or temping. I am letting other nature do the work and if it doent happen at some point we will re-evaluate the process. My doctor actually recommended doing it this way.

Prenatal vitamins. The GYN nurse said while you are trying by the time you acutually find out you are preg you are 4 weeks so why wait. And i am trying to excercise more DH started taking Zinc and Vit C and E. for some reason thats what the doc recomended.

DH is doing nothing...we got pregnant, so I guess that is a sign that his swimmers can swimChat Icon Now if it could just happen again, we'd be good..lol

Re: I know this has been asked before...

Thank you all for your responses. I think I will have him start a multi-vitamin, to be healthy if nothing else.

Last night I must have left the page open on the computer that I was reading about this topic. So DH opens the computer and was like "Why the hell are you reading something called "strong sperm"?! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: I know this has been asked before...

nothing really- he takes good care of himself already- vitamins, exercise, etc

but hmm now that you ladies mention it- he did buy a lap desk for his laptop at target recently- I guess he wants to make sure the boys can swim Chat Icon

Re: I know this has been asked before...

my dh started taking a muti-vitamin about 6 months ago, but that was just because he wanted to. i almost did something about the laptop since hes in all sorts of fantasy leagues and i feel like the computer is attached to him. but we got our BFP earlier this month so i guess the little guys weren't affected by the heat from the laptop.
