I am being utterly unreasonable but nevertheless I am unordinatley annoyed that DH had done his back in on the day I am ovulating.

We are trying to conceive. If we were lucky this month it would be perfect timing for many reasons.

However DH is prostrate on the floor unable to move. Apparantly rumpy pumpy is completley out of the question despite various offers from me.

Am I being unreasonable to take advantage of the fact he can't move and therefore can't escape ?

(On a serious note this is v v annoying timing).

ah hop on, it'll help him work through the pain

wheelybug · 21/03/2008 13:03

You are utterly unreasonable ...... but I woudl feel exactly the same. If DH dares to feel ill around OV time I get VERY cross.

Surely he only has lie there and think of England ???

Exactly Wheely, I have assured him I will do all the work. He is lying on his back anyway. Surely it would relieve the boredom of hours spent staring at the ceiling listening to CBeebies.

jump on top!? cant he do the womans normal job of just laying there?!

artichokes · 21/03/2008 13:25

I just offered him a massage (for medicinal reasons only of course) and he has said that he wants me and my wiley ways to stay well away.

DD's nap will be over in 5 mins anyway. Once she is up I will institute plan B which invloves the procurement of heavy duty pain killers for our quiet evening in.

It will take away the pain. Just go and lie on top of him. It will take a few minutes only. It's the least he can do anyway.

MamaG · 21/03/2008 13:31

What about offering to wank him/BJ then leaping on when he starts to shudder?

bethoo · 21/03/2008 13:32

best chance to conceive is actually a day or two before actual ovulation but if he is just lying there can you not just straddle him and do all the work?

artichokes · 21/03/2008 13:35

I got a positive on an OPK this morning so I am pretty sure today is the best day for trying.

DD is currently sitting on his chest and he seems fine. I am only a few pounds heavier surely?

the positive means you have an LH surge which means you are due to ovulate very soon.

quick get on him NOW!!!

Judy1234 · 21/03/2008 13:56

Also I thought it was best if you really had sex almost every day in the cycle to have the best chance of conceiving rather than saving it up for one moment so there was never a time when sperm wasn't present.

I am cooking a turkey on Sunday. Am I supposed to have a baster, and if so do I buy it from a sex shop?

Janni · 21/03/2008 19:57

Tell him MNUnited want you to BE ON TOP!

JossStick · 21/03/2008 19:59

Tell him to wince and spill

artichokes · 21/03/2008 20:00

Mission accomplished...
Thanks to a killer combo of Nurofen, Paracetamol, Codeine and Valium we have a small chance of a December baby.
I have to say that was the least romantic act I have ever engaged in .
