Hi people,
I recently have been finding myself in a very tough situation. My girlfriend and I both really want a child. She has PCOS which makes it more difficult but she has normal ovulations and should be able to conceive. However I recently got the news I dont have super sperm and in fact not very good at all. Obviously this it tough, I am having some more tests done as I have been ill and had an infection as well (which both I read can create low mortility and bad sperm, is that correct?), so hoping for the best.
Her conditions does so that she can stop ovulating at any time pretty much and she is dying to be a mum. I completely understand her whole situation.
She has considered if my sperm can improve and obviously we are working on that first. Then secondly we are looking at the possibility of laboraty (IVF procedure) but she pretty much already wrote that off. In regards to donor that she is apparently not really considering, she wants it the natural way is my understanding.
Here is the thing I love my girlfriend with all of my heart she loves me, but not enough is my impression otherwise what im about to write would not eve have to be on either of our minds. My girlfriend has a couple of previous partners and a friend who offered to help her if she really wanted to become pregnant. Now the thing is she wants to do this if my sperm cannot be used to get pregnant, as she almost with 98% security turned down possibility of IVF and sperm donor she is apparently not even considering. Instead its sex with a previous partner to get pregnant.
Look here is the thing I really want to do everything for her, but is it really so wrong of me to both understand her and still want to leave her if she goes through with that? I am confused and cannot make up my mind as I really do love her, but this I just cannot accept, plus I know for certain I want a child of my own otherwise my interest will not be there, and that I cannot share with her as I know she will not understand that, she tends to only understand her own situation.
Am I a bad person for wanting to leave her if she will go through with that? I really want her to have a child even if it cannot be with me, but I just dont feel I can be there, emotionally I think I would be lost after that.
I am really looking for some guidance here. Thanks for reading guys! Any kind of feedback on this is appreciated, I will explain more in details too if needed.
What goes on in her mind here? Anyone been in similar situation? Just anything here is appreciated.
