    Mountain dew
    My husband drinks mountain dew all the time! And we can't seem to get pregnant. Is it true that this could be because of the mountain dew?

    If you read the labels on sodas they are all basically the same except for the flavoring that makes them different. So I would say it is a myth.
    If anything in soda was going to make you have a hard time conceiving I would say it would be the diet sodas but I even doubt they would have that effect.

    Yes, that's a Fun myth. haha!
    If you all have been trying for over a year, DO see your doctor and have your mate see his doctor. That will make sure there are no real fertility issues.
    Practice!

    Definitely see a doctor, at least they can check his sperm count and viability to determine if the issue is him or you and provide pointers to help you conceive in your particular case.
