Caffiene and Sperm

How long before O should DH stop drinking Caffiene?  We know that it hurts the swimmers, but he loves the stuff so we want to cut it out for minimal time.  

What do you ladies think?

I am not sure how true is it that caffiene can hurt the swimmers.  I read some articles from online and newspaper, the studies did show that moderate drinking habit (for men) can actually help to boost the swimmers.  One cup a day can help the swimmers swim better and faster.

I actually found quite a numbers of article on how caffeine helps in male fertility.  Here is one of them :

Don't worry too much. He should be fine as long as he is not taking too much of caffiene a day.

Good luck!

I read that he should skip caffeine all the time except right before BD.  I heard the caffeine actually makes the sperm more lively.  But that's only RIGHT BEFORE BDing.

my dh drinks caffine like its wter and the docotr has told him that he has super sperm so i really dont think that caffine has anything to do with sperm count. good luck

i've also read that caffeine intake helps with sperm motility.  of course too much of it will adversely effect the rest of your dh's health, which in turn would effect his sperm.

but i would say if you can get him to cut back in general, but had a larger intake in the days preceding O, you'll probably be fine. (and he won't need to experience the nasty headaches associated with caffeine withdrawal)
