I am not sure there would be a problem even if then.  Once the sperm reach the vaginal secretions, they begin swimming vigorously up.  She could also elevate her hips on a pillow after having sex, if concerned.

What counts is the quantity and vitality of his sperm (which is easy enough to test/check).  Without good quantity and especially vitality, there's a major problem in conceiving.

Though if he were really small (only 2"?) it would then be helpful if he ejaculates vigourously enough to reach your cervix area instead of that falling short.

No, unless it makes him too self-conscious to have sex.
