Are you worried he might be infertile, teddybrew? He shouldn't necessarily be. Men's fertility doesn't tend to drop off in quite the same way as women's once they reach their late 30s and early 40s. 

There are plenty of famous men who've had kids well into their 60s, like David Jason, Des O'Connor and John Humphreys, so it shouldn't be a problem.

If you are worried, then it may make sense to get him tested, if he doesn't mind. Good luck!

You had me at 'hello!'

Hiya Teddy,

Your bloke should be fine - it's us women who slow down and start finding it harder to conceive as we get closer to menopause! Have you been trying for a baby already? If you have but you haven't had much luck, it might be worth you both getting tested. Unless you're already a mum of course because that would be good proof of your fertility.

Good luck if you're trying. Hope it goes well.
