Should my husband have his sperm tested?

I have had a few miscarriages. I'm currently in the process of finding out if I'm miscarrying again. I have been diagnosed with a Uti so I'm being treated for that. A few months ago I miscarried and at that time had a uti as well.  My husband is now concerned maybe he has the pronlem and isn't  sure if he should go to get his sperm tested to see if it's weak or in some way unhealthy. If you have any advice that would be great. We are both so devastated we just aren't sure of anything right now! Please help!

Well,my story is kinda the same. I have 2 sons from a previous marriage, and my current husband has none. We are so happy, I was just a kid with my last failed relationship, we started as middle school sweethearts, LOL but as years past we grew into 2 totally different people, I love my children so I don't chalk the whole 10 yrs with him up to failure, but lets just say it should have been over LONG before it was. My Husband and I have been together now 7 yrs TTC for 5 of them. It was tough. We blamed the problem on him seeing as I have 2 children. Well he did have a low count, so we did vitamins, but although his count was low it was healthy? So the Doc didn't quite get why it was taking soooo long. we only have gotten PG once and it ended in early M/C. We finally broke down and went to a Re July 31st for a consultation and BAM got Pg the first cycle with him, like Aug 4th is my PG start date. Still kinda crazy. Funny thing is he didn't DO anything fertility wise. We did find out I had alot of scar tissue which was trapping my eggs everymonth. One finally got through and stuck!

   How far along are you? Are you having pain in your sides??? If the numbers are goin up....there is still hope. I hate that the Docs are leaving you in limbo thats the worst. When are they gonna have you come in again to look at your HCG?

I have only one potential miscarriage which is this one documented so far. I think I may have miscarried a few months ago however nothing was in my blood when I went to the dr's but I had been bleeding for 2 weeks. I can have babies I have 3 from a previous relationship. This is my 2nd marriage and I know It's not me. I have been checked out by 3 different doctors who all gave me a clean bill of health and the green light to start trying. I'm just sick of being in limbo and I'm so happy and in love really for the first time in my life that it amazes me how much I took for granted having a baby and now when I'm 32 and more ready now than I've ever been it doesn't seem to want to happen. Life is so full of suprises really! Thanks for the advice really!

If you are getting PG, his sperm are doing the job, I would be more concearned with why your uerus is not holding the baby, most OBGYN will refer you to a RE if you have had 2 M/C. have you had a consecutive Beta to see if your numbers are doubling?
