Hi Elly...
My husband is a C5/7 quad.  We are doing some planning to begin a family, and we have found this to be a wonderful resource:

It's a long booklet, but a wealth of information that can be very beneficial.
Good luck!!

I would think IUI (Intrauterine Insamination) would be a good option, since they take the sperm, wash it to get all the good swimmers and then insert them straight into the uterus. But it probably depends on the person...
