    Viagra??

    Umm...

    My DH has been told by a friend of his that if the man uses Viagra then you increase your chance of conceiving and it is supposed to sway for a boy. The friedn swears this is why his wife got UTD with their son.
    I am a bit hesitant to go down this road as I am worried about it affecting the sperm quality.
    Not to mention I am not really comfortable with the whole concept!

    Does anyone else have a story about Viagra and TTC???

    I have never heard that one. I personally don't think it would be worth putting your partner at risk of a heart attack to try something that is probably not true.

    Viagra should only be used for people who suffer sexual dysfunction. People who use it "recreationally" do put themselves at higher risks of nasty side effects, with the worst being cardiac problems.

    I'd steer well clear unless your DH is prescribed it by someone who knows what they are doing.

    Best to be safe than sorry!

    Thanks girls.
    Needless to say we did not (and WILL NOT) use it!
    We DTD yesterday and today as I think I am ovulating.....
    DH thankfully has no problems in that department and I am now officially in my 2WW. Fingers crossed

    Good Luck to everyone else....
