Hey Julie,

I'm so sad that your HPT was a negative. What devastating news. Here's a big hug for you! We can cry and commisserate together. I can completely understand that sadness from all the years of trying before my boys came along. In fact, when I got a positive HPT with them, I didn't know what it meant! All those negatives. I wasn't sure what two purple stripes meant. LOL.

When your hubby goes to the dr, ask for him to be tested for antisperm antibodies. That's what my hubby has. It's not very common for men to be tested for it but it does happen. My DH had very slow motility and the drs couldn't figure it out at all. Finally, one RE suggested he go for the AA test and lo and behold, it was positive.

Also, get your DH on Robitussin. It can help the sperm to move faster.
