My concern's that he masturbates almost every day ( I know because he sends me pics and we talk about everything in our relationship). The other thing's that we're trying for baby its been a year now with no luck. My question is: is it normal for him to masturbate everyday? The second one's : does that have an impact on my inability to concieve

reader, anonymous, writes (13 February 2013): It's both a plus and minus in terms of conception. Just like many other things our bodies go through, sperm production gets on a schedule. If he is used to ejaculating once per week, then that's about how much he'll produce; once a day, and he'll produce more to make up for that. Given that sperm have somewhat of a lifetime, you want it to be 'fresh,' but you also want quantity. If he's used to everyday, then a one or two day break might increase his sperm count, any more and you start to mess with the schedule and decrease the quality.There are many other factors regarding conception. It may be tricky for you to time your ovulation right unless he happens to be around at that point in time, for instance. For his part, its normal, be flattered: he misses you and has to do something with that energy. If you're up for it, joining him via phone or something may be enjoyable for both. I would worry, however, if he's always using pornography or something.

Just once a day? You need to know that if men got a nickel for each time we turned the crank, there would be no poverty in the world.
Yes, it is normal and healthy. Hopefully he is fantasizing about you while in the throws of his self-pleasure! I suspect he is if you are trading pics and open about it...it is good and important that you support him and do not make him feel ashamed for doing it. I think it helps him feel connected to you rather than fantasizing about someone else.

yes it's normal for him to do it daily I'm married and I live with my hubby and I still do it almost daily sometimes more than once a day...
and yes if he is ejaculating daily it can impact his sperm motility and the amount.
He should hold off for a few days before you are together...
but also you need to schedule your visits around when you are ovulating.
and not that it's any of my business but why aren't you waiting till you live together and are married to have a baby (that' personally is the way I was raised and think it should be done... get married THEN have a baby)
