How do I convince DH to DTD tonight?

[Gingerandcocoa]

I have a really bad cold, and had to stay home from work today. I've also got a "peak" reading on my CBFM today. How can I convince my DH to DTD tonight?? I don't want him to get ill but don't want to miss the window of opportunity!!!

I feel like Monica from Friends, pretending she's not ill to convince Chandler to have sex with her...

Tell hom you're "in da pribe ob liiibe!"

*him. gah stupid phone!

What does dtd mean? im new to this lol

I think she means 'the prime of life'

Is your husband the sort of man who can deal with being told you're fertile and would like to have sex? Sorry for the awkward wording; I don't mean that offensively - just trying to establish whether you could just tell him you're fertile and need to dtd so you'll make an effort to breathe your germs over his shoulder?!

RaRaZ it is what Monica says to Chandler. She's so full of cold thats what "in the prime of life" sounded like...

Just a joke.

OP maybe if you can have a sleep, breath in some steam and olbas oil and take some paracetamol you will be well enough for seduction?

If your DH really isn't up for it i think you have to wait another month.

Or you can try a positional where you aren't breathing near his face?

HayleyKate DTD means Do The Deed

positional?

Dtd means "do the deed" with the intention of conceiving.

Cbfm is the clear blue fertility monitor.

And OP, sorry to be crass but in the same situation last year I went for doggy so we could still dtd without me breathing my germs in his direction....

Reverse cowgirl. Then sleep.

Tell him you need a nice massage to make you feel better as your back and shoulders are all stiff due to the cold. Have said massage take place in bed, obviously wearing just your underwear. Even if you are a bit sniffly, surely he will not be able to resist you lying there in just your pants?

I read the op and thought 'prrrribe ob liiiiibe' too.

Just ask him if he wants to have sex. Do YOU want to have sex though? It's okay not to if you're unwell. There's always next month.

Sorry Koala: figured it was summat like that, but never been one for Friends!

Facedown. :-)

ShowOfHands you get me!

koala your post made me laugh! Ah I really miss Friends. Maybe I should enjoy my day off work and watch a bit online.

vatta I am considering that position, I think it's my only hope!

showofhands I definitely don't feel like being sexy today but there is no way I'm missing the opportunity :)!!

Are you people joking that DTD means do the deed????? I've always thought it was "do the dance"!!!

have headr DTD referred to as do the dance and do the deed, I prefer to think of it being short for "doing the baby making dance" myself
doing the deed just sounds like a chore

Definitely deed. It was brought in precisely to get rid of baby dancing.

koala, you can be my lobster if you like.

Hmm I feel like having some trifle tonight... But think I've run out of beef!

Ginger I had this dilemma earlier in the week, only the other way around (jumping poorly OH) now I'm off sick with his cold oops.... All in a good cause....hope it works this month now grrrr

Ladies - success. Thanks for your tips ;).

Thanks :-)
