Hellp Soulcysters...brothers,
I want you all to know that I am not new to this community. I have been reading occasionally along with my wife to see what some of you ladies have had to say about this condition. Since all of you don't know me, I am ArianC's husband. And I must say it is nice to see a thread specific to us men who are really having to deal with this.
I will also have to admit that I have not been the best husband when it comes to infertility. Arian has been a pioneer since our first year of marriage to give me a son or daughter. I have been the one that would say "It's okay baby we'll try next month" or "It's just not our time, it'll be okay". Thats not being a good husband to a woman who yearns for a child and possesses the maternal gift a lot of women would kill for. If you guys only knew her outside of this forum like I do and see how she interacts with other couple's children, it would be clear how good of a mother she would actually be.
I have personally been recently bit hard by the baby bug, I go to bed at night thinking of how I am going to show my son how to beat Call of Duty on Expert level. How I am going to relay my tech savvy intellect to his sponge of a mind and even talk about the dreaded S word. I want all of that. More so than I have ever considered it in my life. Why it took me so long to understand that this is what I really want, I will never know. But know this, Arian has suffered and is still suffering. I know her body is not my fault, but like I said I haven't been very supportive until recently. I just want to thank all the ladies on this thread for giving her the support she needs and I want to be a part of this community with her instead of her going alone in a lot of this. So, thanks ladies and gentleman. Nice to have met you.

I just want to say that as a woman with PCOS, its great to hear that you're beginning to understand how your wife feels! I hope you two are successful in the near future; it sounds like you'd be great parents.
If 1 man can start to see this from his DW's point of view, maybe there is hope for my DH! | |

Hehe, send him my way, I am sure we can relate on the frustration of it and denial. I would be more than willing to talk to him if you would like. Thank you for the support. | |

::Wipes eyes:: 
From another cysters, I am so happy to see someones DH post about how much he wants a child and feelings. My DH is a great man and I know when I was diagnosed with PCOS it affected him emotionally as well. He was more worried about me so he didn't voice it, but now the baby bug has really hit him as well. We talk about it everyday and sometimes I wish he had people to talk about it to as well. Now, that I know this thread exist I will tell him. I know it will be hard for him to open up and post, but I believe if he even just read what others have to say it may help him in understanding more.
Mysters thank you so much for being great support to your cysters!!
