TTC Thread 14 ... Santa knows what we want for Christmas

Miaou. If he wasn't such a nice, reasonable guy, that is exactly what I might do, but since he's so nice about it . . .

I just worry it will take a long time and by then he will change his mind. He has no problems using one later if we can't concieve. Maybe what I need to do is go back to my ob/gyn and see what she has to say about my situation and if she has any advice. In fact, I'll go call now.

Kizzy, your post has made me laugh.

kizzy, DH seems to be able to 'hit the spot' as it were when he know's i'm OV, i think he uses the term 'it's like knocking at the door!) to be crude, but at least it's in the right area!

Yingers74: my dh dreads it too! So much pressure!

sorry to but into conversation. i ovulated sat i think by my working out. so dh knows its past and guess what!!! hes as horny as ever today.... typical male right??

is it just me, or do men last a lot long when they know your ovulating. my dh is really finding it difficult.... lol i shouldnt laugh but we are finding it hard to do it and concentrate and end up laughing. it is only first month TTC...

On second thoughts maybe you would feel it was dishonest...think before you post, Miaou

CM, could you do it discreetly? Eg register on fertility friend and monitor your temperature (OK, if he doesn't get up before you this could be a little tricky), then just make sure you get him in the mood at the right time of the month? Not used OPK sticks, but again I think you could monitor discreetly without being in his face about it being the "right time". Just a thought.

He thinks its great, but we haven't been trying for all that long. He doesn't want anything to do with anything that monitors ovulation yet, as he feels that would turn him into a baby machine, but if we have no luck after awhile, then he is open to trying that. That really frustrates me, though, as I was told that I would have difficulty TTC long ago, but on the other hand DS was concieved while I was on birth control. He thinks that we will have no problems, and I am left wondering if that is so, or is DS my "miracle" baby.

my poor dh, even when he comes back late from work and is tired, I am like ' ready for baby sex', yes very sexy

oooh DH is (was) enjoying the extra bd! lol, I told him when it was my days etc... as he double checked everything! lol, he did make a comment once about me only wanting him for his spearm, but it was said jokingly so he's ok.

Managed so far to not really let on to DH when the "right" time is, whilst also trying to make sure that we do BD around the right time more than normal.

hello everyone,

what does your dh/dp think about baby sex? I think my poor dh dreads it! All in a good cause so I don't mind!

marinda. Hope your DS gets better soon.

Hi Nasa and Hula, know how you feel, I'm waiting for AF and have symptons and also wish she would get on with it so I can be relaesed from my misery ! Everything is *t at the moment as my DS is poorly still with virus from hell and too ill to go to nursery so keep having to get granny to look after him ! At least if AF arrived, I could think new month new challenge - who an I kidding! Anyway enough of my misery hugs to everyone!

right then, evening ladies,

Hester - OMG! how do u know ur OV? got everything crossed for you, and we're all hear for u either way, but it would be nice to hear a BFP from u shortly!

Tania - Could you not bleed & bd or is that not ur thing as it were (it's not mine either but in the event of OV being during this peroid?)

Oh and it's not nice to take a shot gun to the drs with u he he he, thou if he has any tips on concieving v v quickly please let us know!

velcobott - bit odd that isn't it, but again fingers crossed for u.

have we got any more testers coming up soon?

sorry about your news Velcrobott.

Sorry to hear your news velcrobott.
Thanks for the info jeddah.

Well a bit of bad news for me....
Had a meeting with GP and all my tests results... she now thinks it is pre-menopause.... but she is writing to consultant gynae to see if there is more we can do/discover.
She did say that I coud still ovulate but who knows when.
She also said that pre-menopause is still quite mysterious/misundersood. I mean I just turned 37 !

On the positive I have 2 lovely kids and until recently that's all that I wanted so really should not feel bad. I am very lucky !

I had someone do a womb massage on me this AM (it can help in some cases)... it will be intersting if it brings results... quite interestingly I had a reflexology treatment later on and the reflexologist found my uterus very very different/unusual and I hadn't told her about the womb massage .I told her afterwards.... weird !

jeddah - yesterday or today. Today is CD29. I have has a 28 day cycle and a 27 day cycle before this. I'm pretty sure I have AF symptoms though - just frustrating waiting for it.

great even!

Mariella....just doesn't make sense.
I guess its take the body a while to d=settle down.

I have been off the mini pill for almost 1 year and I was getting quite regular and now........
28
35
23
Off to the Dr for clomid.. on 8th dec I am going to take a 12 bore shotgun incase she doesn't give me it!!!!

hula remind me when is af due??

Welcome to Cokenzie, Greenbug and Mikeyjon, don't worry about coming on and joining in, all welcome here, best wishes to you all +++++*+

{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}} to everyone who has been feeling down, lol x x x

CD7 here and feeling fairly relaxed, dh doing all the worrying for us this month, so not thinking about it all too intensely - great news in that my days off and annual leave that I've been made to use up will all fall over fertile time so at least I'll be at home each night and not sleeping in at work.

god, fingers crossed for u thou hon. just keep bd!

munnzieb - have never been on the pill properly, took it a few times half heartedly when i was 16 (im 21 now) but didn't have periods even before that. doctor suspects pcos but i don't have any of the other symptoms. the doctor thinks that i may ovulate once a year or something like that and have just been really lucky in getting pregnant. not likely to happen again though

hi all, will read thru after t and see what's happening, hi to the new guys posting, good luck.... god i need internet access at work! lol.
