It sounds familiar right?   You're doing everything possible to improve your health and get pregnant, but your husband or partner doesn't seem to understand or willing to pull their fair share of the weight...especially when sperm quality issues are the reasons standing between you and your growing family. In today's episode, I interview licensed counselor Kasandra Wheeler to get her top tips on how to start these difficult conversations with our S.O. without getting into a screaming match.   Kasandra shares her tips on what to do when: 1.  Your husband doesn't seem to understand the emotional impact of the BFN. 2.  He has poor sperm quality but is unwilling to make the lifestyle changes. 3.  He is unwilling to explore other treatment options such as IVF, IUI, or alternative therapies. Kasandra also shares her "Worry-Period" technique for reducing overall anxiety and depression.   Links mentioned: www.adriennewei.com   Episodes mentioned: #58 - The One Thing I'm Scared to Tell You
