TTC - how do you stop yourself going bonkers and ruining your sex life??

[Cakebaker35]

Just that really. Just about to start TTC our 2nd and already it's all I can think about! Don't really want to tell lots of friends yet and become a total bore about it but how do you take your mind off it all? Plus I'm worried that all this carefully timed sex is just going to take the passion out of things. Any tips on how to survive it?

You say you have only just started trying so don't worry! I'm sure it will happen within a month or so so just relax and carry on as before and enjoy having lots of sex! Me and my husband have been trying to conceive for 16 months and although it's getting very stressful as nothing is happening we still have amazing sex, very passionate too! Good luck! x

Thank you. I'm a worrier naturally so need a virtual slap I think I was vey fortunate to conceive DD1 immediately and just feel I won't be so lucky this time round and not sure how I will cope with the trying iyswim!

My tip is don't tell him 'the optimum time'. I've come unstuck a few times and encountered a few performance issues. Poor guy!

Anyway, hope no 2 is as quick as no 1 for you!!

Good luck x

Thanks allchat, great tip!

He'll probably work it out when you put your nice pants on for like 3 days a month!! :)

Ha ha, I'd better blow the cobwebs off them first!
