DH just doesn't get!

We've been TTC for 5 months (not long I know) but my DH just doesn't seem to get the concept of TTC.

When I stopped taking the pill we were very relaxed, when it happens it happens. But as the months went on I started logging my cycle and checking my ovulation, I want to know what's going on with my body after 11 years taking the pill!

My DH thinks I'm crazy and a baby will just happen when it's meant to happen.

Does anybody else have a far too relaxed other half? That when you stop taking contraception you are very much trying for a baby and not just having unprotected sex!

@joystir59 each to their own but I would never and could never do that to DH. There are so many other routes to go down if you want to be a parent.

And what about the random bloke you dtd with? Would he know he was being used for his sperm, I can't see many men being ok with that? Does he get the choice of wanting to be a parent if you don't tell him?

I would be heartbroken if I couldn't have children and DH went out and got someone else pregnant because he wanted to be a dad.

@Cake20189 sorry to hear about your ectopic. Did you eventually get pregnant? It's been nearly 2 years since mine and nothing.

OverinaFlash Sorry to year that you have been through the same thing. No I’ve been trying for a year a nothing too. I’m thinking of going to the GP in February if nothing happens this month. Have you seen your GP? Xxx
