When a couple has difficulty conceiving almost everyone, sadly, even some in the medical profession thinks it’s something to do with the female, but this is not always the case. The funny thing is, testing for male infertility is easy and cheap compared to some of the uncomfortable and sometimes painful procedures women go through to test for infertility.

The decision to have a baby is so momentous for a young couple. My husband and I were nervous at the thought of having a baby, but we both felt ready. I stopped taking the pill, and we were surprised to find out I was pregnant after only one month of being off the pill. Part of me was reluctant to start telling people so early, but excitement won over and we began telling people right away. I took an official test at my doctors office and confirmed that I was indeed pregnant, and I scheduled my first OB appointment.
