Hi guys,

Just wanted some support really. I feel really really down as my partner and our sex life is crap atm. He works 9-6, or 8-4.30 and wakes up quite early, so says he feels tired most of the time and that's why he doesn't have sex, but that it's not that he doesn't want to. When he wanted sex it was at most three times a week, then it went to once. And now it's gone to zero, once ever two weeks instead. Do you guys have any experiences to share?

Btw we don't have children, atm it's just us.

I've been talking to him about it and telling him that I don't really understand it, and that he just needs to make time and prioritise better. Am I wrong in what I'm saying?

For example, he said to me yesterday that we'd have time today to have sex and keep a couple of hours free and that he'd just do a few admin things and then we'd go in the bedroom. But he decided we should see his friend as we haven't seen him for three weeks, but I said to him that that was unfair on me as I've been talking to him about this issue for two weeks - nearly the time we haven't had sex for. He said to me it doesn't matter cause plans change but I said that you told me one thing so why change it.

In relation to TTC this month, I've told him forget it because if we have sex it will just be to make a baby and it will remind me of how it's not possible for us to make time on days that I feel like it. He said he didn't understand this, and that most people just have sex for babymaking, and I just laughed

Am I being reasonable. How can I make him understand better? I think he thinks I'm a sexfuelled freak

Evening ladies!

So my fertile window starts tomorrow!! Wahoooo so ready for this! 😍 come on body!!!

Pink - sorry to hear your story... it sounds like u are doing all the right things by talking to him about it!

OctoberGirl91 · 14/11/2018 21:12

Good Luck @Lemon1

I am CD5 today Ovia says to start testing from cycle day 11, so not long to go!

I'm going drink more water if it helps I have also got that fertility gel lube so hopefully that works too.

I think CM can be hard to monitor when your having sex every other day!

xx

Lemon1 · 14/11/2018 21:26

@octobergirl91 I’m so glad u said that about the cm! I thought that last month but was to embarrassed to tell my friends that it would be difficult to track that when they said about tracking cm! 🤣 I don’t know how anyone can tell the difference unless they dtd after the cm change

OctoberGirl91 · 15/11/2018 11:18

Guys I am gutted I've got a chest infection and gotta have a course of anti biotics and steroids! I am reluctant to take them, could they affect my chances this month?
xx

Lemon1 · 15/11/2018 12:35

Oh no! Sorry to hear that October :( maybe ur course of antibiotics will be finished by the time u are ovulating? Xx

MrsJ88 · 15/11/2018 21:55

Hi ladies!

How are we all?

I have a problem. So next week I am getting my wisdom tooth removed under iv sedation. If you’re pregnant they don’t do it but for me it will be CD 21 do you think I should carry on as normal?? What if I fall pregnant this month but my ovulation date is probably going to be late anyway I don’t know what to do? I was hoping I would be pregnant by now and could cancel the appointment.
@OctoberGirl91 oh no, but you might really poorly if you don’t take the antibiotics? @Lemon1 hope the baby making is going well. xxx

MrsJ88 · 15/11/2018 21:59

@Funnybunnybluff welcome. This is a lovely group and everyone is so supportive xx

OctoberGirl91 · 16/11/2018 08:24

Morning Ladies

Spoke to my Doctor again today and she said she gave me anti biotics as a precaution as I am asthmatic which gets really bad over winter and if I didn't feel need to take them then don't, so I'm going hold off and just take my steroids for my breathing as they'll be finished by Sunday and ovulation is hopefully Thurs-Sat next week, so after Sunday I'm going try go for every other day!

Hubby seems more on bored now after our chat and asked me when my window was which was nice as I wasn't going bother him with it, still won't tell him about OPKs. I'm going start them Sunday too just as I've got a few.

Good luck with appointment @MrsJ88 Don't know what to advice I recently had root canal in July was awful I hate dentists, are you tracking with OPKs?

Are you officially in Two week wait now @Funnybunnyfluff ?

Good luck @Lemon1 Let's hope we all get our Christmas cheer earlier 🤞🏻
xx

Funnybunnyfluff · 16/11/2018 10:11

@OctoberGirl91

Morning, glad to here your doc has given your better advice and hopefully will all be done rdy for next week.

pinkflower22 · 16/11/2018 11:35

2 week wait
Funnybunnyfluff · 16/11/2018 13:36

I'm sorry I don't know pink, I have only used the clear blue ones with faces on them.

Definitely looks like it's showing something though.

OctoberGirl91 · 16/11/2018 13:58

@pinkflower22

The line on left usually has to be darker than or equal too the right line, so I would say getting close.

Good luck xxx

OctoberGirl91 · 16/11/2018 14:10

Top one was yesterday and bottom one today, still a negative going start using my CB dual hormone on Sunday because sticks are so expensive, but got some pelvic pain so wanted to make wasn't going ovulate earlier xx

2 week wait
OctoberGirl91 · 16/11/2018 14:39

Ladies I'm worried now for CD7 is that like a bit dark? It's still negative but for CD7 it's a bit dark isn't it? @MrsJ88 @Belle2008 @Lemon1 @Grainedesesame ?xx

OctoberGirl91 · 16/11/2018 14:44

Today's test, going hold my wee and do a CB later I think xx

2 week wait
Funnybunnyfluff · 16/11/2018 14:53

@OctoberGirl91

My AF I think I have said before is between 23-26 days. However I can have peak ovulation as early as CD9 this month was the lates iv had at CD15. Maybe due to MC.

So I would do the CB and if no face leave it 48hrs and tray again.
