My husband, who has bipolar disorder, and I have been trying to conceive for over a year. Me, being the female, have had to to have extensive procedures done to check on my fertility. My husband told me he would have his sperm count checked, then freaked out a few weeks later telling me there was no way he would ever do that. I know..I know...guys have a weird feeling about doing such a thing, but his freak out wasn't a normal freak out. A couple weeks went by and I explained to him the procedures I had to have done. Once he heard the details he decided a sperm evaluation wasn't too bad. Now I am on fertility medicine...my body is going through a lot. He is doing one of his wispy washy deal where he wants a baby, but hen doesn't, so he won't touch me. Not only will he not touch me, but he throws a literal, mean, unfriendly, hateful fit. I really don't know what to do. With the holidays and all, he gets so testy and mean. I have to walk on eggshells around him, because I'm afraid I will contribute to his depression that usually turns into a manic episode. I was born to be a mother, so this entire situation absolutely kills me. I do not know what to do, or ow to go about anything with him without feeling scared that he is going to flip out hardcore on me. Just don't know what to do.
