Tell me I'm being pathetic

[KimRobs87]

Hi girls. I'm feeling really sorry for myself and it's not exactly something I can tell anyone. I'm hoping you might know where I'm coming from. It's probably hormones but I thought I was ovulating today so me and dh dtd but we just weren't in the mood and honestly we were just fitting it in even though we didn't have time. Long story short, he couldn't finish. This was the 4th time since Friday (Fri, mon, Tues and tonight) but I'm really kicking myself now like I've totally missed it!!! Please tell me I'm being pathetic and that I'm wrong 😢 xx

If you dtd yesterday and you’re ovulating today you’re definitely not out. It’s not unusual to not finish when he’s feeling pressure to, don’t think I could!

You’re not being pathetic. TTC is an emotional rollercoaster.

I think you are most fertile the two days before ovulation so Monday and Tuesday were the ones that counted most of all.

Thanks both. I just really don't want to miss our chance when we'd been doing so well. I obviously can't be 100% that I am ovulating today but I had cramps earlier and have tender boobs. I did get my peak yesterday morning so there's a little part of me that can't help thinking, what if I ovulate tomorrow and I've mistook what I've felt today to be it? I'm not blaming dh, I know it can't be easier I just can't shake that disappointed feeling x

Relax! Even if you ovulate tomorrow you still have every chance. It takes sperm a couple of days to get far enough up to fertilise the egg anyway. Might be a girl mind you - Shettles Method says to stop trying 2/3 before ovulation

@BuntyII - thanks! I feel better now I've slept on it. Yes I've read up about that. A little girl would be lovely xxx
