I think after four years, it is time to see a specialist about this issue. The fact that he has a daughter indicates that his sperm count is probably okay, but things can change so both of you should be checked out.
Lots of fertility issues can be resolved, so see someone as soon as possible! Good luck!

Many women do NOT have textbook cycles. Therefore Day counting may not be helpful. If there is a delay in conception, day counting would not be able to help you pinpoint the cause either.
I highly recommend charting your fertility signs. Your chart can tell you when you are fertile, when you are not, when you are ovulating, when to expect your next period, and when to suspect pregnancy. Your chart can also tell you if there are issues delaying conception or causing difficulty w/ carrying a pregnancy and if there are serious issues which need a doc's attention.
Some good sources for charting your fertility signs: Fertilityfriend.com (free software as well as a pay-for version and on-line charting turorial); ovusoft.com (discussion boards for many fertility related issues, much info on fertility after the pill, and a very good software for purchase). The books Taking Charge of Your Fertility (associated w/ the the ovusoft website and software), The Art of Natural Family Planning, and Garden of Fertility

Check out the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility." It may help you. most web site say that if you haven't conceived after trying for a year you may need to talk with a doctor and get checked out.
Also because he has had a child in the past does not mean he is still fertile now.
