If you already have 2 children then you can have kids. SCI will not affect your fertility. Ive heard sex is quite a good way to get pregnant!

HI Erin

I guess it depends if your husband can ejaculate or not. If he can then I guess...great. If not then maybe a ferticare vibrator might be handy. We spoke to our local spinal injury consultant who was fab. Good Luck . Bedrocks wife. x

Hi Erin...your question has me a little bemused! Don't know about turkey basters. How about good ol' sex?
Good luck. :cheers:

All I have to do is drink the water... *sighs*. Just trying to add some humour here..... Worse comes to worse, the doctors can help you, if he can't ehaculate I think (not sure) that they can still help... don't go by me, this is one area I don't know a darn thing about, like so much of my life!
Of all the words, of tongue or pen, the saddest, are these: "what might have been".
