My first words of advice would be a consult a good Naturopath (who specialises in Natural Fertility Management) and get your hubby on a solid Pre-Conceptual Care program. Sperm takes 3 months to fully mature, and unlike our eggs (which are present from birth) they are constantly dying and renewing and are very receptive to changes that are made in our diet and environment.
Your hubby should avoid caffeine and alcohol as it causes sperm to coagulate ('clump' together). He should also take a supplement with Zinc, Vitamin E and Vitamin B12.
Avoiding hormone altering chemicals that he applies to his body is also recommended. Miessence is a really good brand that does Organically Certified personal care products (deoderants, after shave balm, hair care, face/body care, baby care & makeup).
They also sell this magnificent product called 'In-Liven' (there is an article about it here on belly belly) which contains 26 Organic Superfoods and a full spectrum of the Probiotic Lactobacillus strains. I can highly recommend that for both of you!!!!
Doing a detox to remove toxins such as pescticides and heavy metals from your bodies will also significantly increase your chances of conceiving.
It is definitely worth exhausting the natural road before considering the expensive conventional/chemical/artifically assisted path.
You will probably get accoustommed to my posts around the place- I am a self-confessed health freak and big advocate for natural medicine!
