It can lower sperm count, but men have so much sperm so it doesnt really make it harder. Lots of things can lower sperm count. Just like weed lowers brain cell count it doesnt mean you turn into a mental retard

Maybe not before but after :
Pot and pregnancy don't mix. Marijuana contains over 300 chemicals. The active ingredient, THC (tetra-hydro-cannabinol) influences brain chemistry in a way similar to alcohol. It affects your memory and slows your thinking and reflexes.
Marijuana has been shown to affect babies, too.
We know that marijuana crosses the placenta, and can be found in the newborn's body for up to a month after a single use. Just like smoking tobacco, it causes less oxygen and food to get to the baby. This factor alone affects your baby's growth and brain development. Newborns of mothers who have used marijuana throughout pregnancy cry more. Some studies suggest that children exposed to marijuana while in the womb are at increased risk for attention disorders and learning problems that might not show up until school age.
Some say that they smoked marijuana and their baby seems fine.
They might have been lucky. There is much we don't know about how marijuana affects developing babies. Marijuana is used in different strengths, mixed with other drugs and even sprayed with weed killers when it is grown. These factors all make any pot use during pregnancy risky.

My husband is living, breathing proof that is is most certainly NOT TRUE! He has two kids from a previous relationship and I am knocked up now. He smokes every day of his life! (Not that I am happy about that... just answering your question)

I have heard that too, However, my husband used to smoke alot of pot, and I have had 3 pregnancies with him, so I think that its a crock.

Yes, it is true. In men, marijuana decreases testosterone, sperm count, and potency.

Yes, and your genes have been damaged also. Better use some heavy duty birth control, dude.
