    Unhappy DH can't "keep it cool" what can help?

    Ok so my DH works hard from morning to late afternoon and the top of that we are in FL! So most of the time he works inside but have to walk in and out a lot and so he sweats a lot , even his clothes are all wet! He do hard work, no sitting around at all.
    He wears boxers but also a half long jeans over it and a T shirt.
    He just can't keep it cool for most of the day. Im so worried he will have low count or at least less swimmers because of the damn heat!
    What can we do? He wanted to take some days of around O next month but he can't now he got work to do.( and we need to be happy for that , so..)
    Anyway he said he will use some ice pack after work on the week we need to try.
    Is this enough or will it help at all after all this hot days??

    good question..youre lucky your dh is willing to ice himself. i think my dh would laugh at me. can he take cooler showers? sleep in the nude? just shorts when at home? i mean its not like he can walk around naked at work right ? and im sure there are boys born in hot countries, esply where men need to work outdoors. and just make sure to take his supps!

    He can't sleep in nude but in boxers so that's good. He don't like cool showers but I will go there and turn it to more cold lol
    Im just worried all this is not enough if he kills out all the sperm already during the day time with that heat!

    He's probably alright, Flava.....I bet he would not have any swimmers if it was that bad and you'd have no kids yet! I second the girls in saying YAY that he will ice them. Just have him do whatever he can to counter it and I'm sure it will be fine!

    I agree that it is def. something to be concerned about and I also share your concern that a little ice right before BD isn't going to do much really if they've been dying off all day.

    Just doing what he is already doing is going to go a long way towards remedying the situation. Plus, with everything you guys are doing (sleeping in boxers, taking supps, having the AC on, timing BD for max. numbers) I think you guys are set up for a great sway regardless of the heat.

    It's always something, you know??? No one ever has the "perfect" sway and yet most people do get their DG without swaying at all!!

    Great point that boys are still conceived in hot countries too!

    What can I do if we live in this damn heat? I just hope that Sept. is already a boy friendly month. But again it may not even matter in FL.
    He is taking lot's of sups some of that for repair sperms and higher sperm count and also the "green" sups.
    I can't do nothing else just hope it works.
