its my worst fear to be infertile, i love kids and want some soonish! if he is be very very supporting, men dont get messed up over many things but this one goes to the very core of being a man, so good luck to you and his sperm - tell the little fellas to get swimming

The only way to tell for sure is by going to the doctor and this may be a difficult subject to approach him on.
It may not nessasary be his fault it may be your age not sure how old you are or you are so stressed about getting pregnant it is stopping you this does and can happen. It could be you are not doing at the right time as there are only so many days in a month you can get pregnant. Have you brought an ovalating test you can buy from the chemist this tells you when you are ovalating? Does he drink or smoke this lowers chances too.
Your docotr will ask all those type of questions before he actually does something he may even tell you to try longer.
I know I may have stated obviouse which I am sure you have looked into yourself. If you have not try the ovalation test kit you can buy, make him wear boxers not briefs,if he smokes and drinks tell him to cut down or stop for a bit.
Good luck and try not to worry about it.

easy have him go and see a dr. he can give him a sperm sample, and they can check it. I'm sure it's just a matter of hitting the right day. Try the basil temperture method, or some other method. Just because you had children before doesn't mean that you are still a baby making machine. There could be something wrong with you all so. I'd have both of yourselves checked out. Or it could be that your body and his sperm are too much a like and if you both carry the same genetics then you won't beable to conceive a baby.

You would have to pay a visit to the Dr and it might not just be your partner, all manner of other things can cause a woman to be infertile too ... i know u say that u have kids already but u should take other factors into account too.... it might not be his problem .... u should both be checked out ... some couples have no medical problems and still cant conceive ......
book that appointment for both of u and good luck !!

The only real way is with a semen sample. Some men are reluctant due to insecurities. simple test really they just look at it with the microscope, only takes a second or two. and just because you have had children doesn't mean you are able to have kids now... but have him go to the doc for a check, nothing to loose. some men have had vasectomies and lie about it to there spouse, sad huh. make him go even if he does not want to.

The cheapest and most fun way to find out if your man is fertile or not is to go out and have an affair with another man. If you get pregnant then you know your man is shooting blanks! Try it and you get a baby as a bonus.

Tell him to wear boxers and not take hot showers. Oh and you stand on your head after sex.......ok, not really, but I read this stuff once. He will have to put a "sample" in a cup and let the MD check it out. That's the only way to tell. Good luck!

I like to say use common sense and go to the DOCTOR however your question proves you don't have any common sense. So have him lay at the other end of the bed with your pillow for 5.5 nights and all should be ok again...

Get him to go to the docs and they will test him to see if he's firing blanks or not. Also it would be worthwhile getting yourself checked up too, even thoughyou've got two kids things can change. But have fun trying tho :-)

your partner will have to have a sperm count done at the hospital to establish weather he is infertile or not , talk it over with your partner about making an appointment to see your doctor who will refer him for the test
hope everything turns out OK
good luck
