My husband also has translocation. It's nice to know we aren't alone.

My husband was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma (which is a blood/bone cancer) one year after we were married. Once he was diagnosed we were told to freeze his sperm but there were none and we had to move along quickly with his stem cell transplant (own stem cells). There was no time to find out what the issue was so we had to put it on the back burner. He was in remission for a couple of years but was just told recently that one of his numbers is starting to go up and we would have to start thinking of an Allo Transplant (donor transplant) which is very risky. Having a donor for insemination was not what I envisioned but I want a baby so bad and want my husband to have a baby. We have started the process of looking for a sperm donor. On top of the difficult task of getting use to the idea of having a baby with someone other than my husband, I also have to worry about my husband having a transplant and possibly losing him at some point and being a single mom. This has been one of the hardest things I have ever gone through but having a baby and being a parent with my husband has given me the strength to forge forward. The other issue that I struggle with is that I am Catholic and the Catholic Church does not believe in artificial insemination. Is anyone else struggling with the same issues as me?

We are in a similar boat. My husband and I have been together 7 years. After TTC for one year we found out he did not produce sperm. We waited one year to grieve and wrap our minds around everything before proceeding with donor sperm. It was a VERY challenging decision. I always wanted to be pregnant and was open to having one and adopting others. We wanted three children....well I got pregnant with triplets! They are five months old and beautiful. I had a terrible pregnancy and they were born early, as triplets are. My husband loves them so much and has since the moment we found out. It has been a long journey for us but we feel that though it is challenging for the babies to have such a genetic background they are very loved, wanted, and they have each other. My in-laws are amazing and love them so much, too. We only told immediate family about our issues.
