Fair play to her speaking out about 2 miscarriages before a successful pregnancy. 👏🏼

Frazzle I don't think you saying in the heat of the moment that you'll stop TTC is a viable solution. You and your DP both know it'll make you seriously unhappy.

Is there any way you can get to the bottom of what he has against baby making sex and TTC "stuff" like OPKs and temperature charting? As Rose I think it was said, if he could just be relied on to BD at the right time that might take at least some of your stress away.

Maybe I'm weird but I find baby making sex kind of a turn on. Would your DP follow your lead if you went down that route or would it just put him off?

Frazzlerock · 25/02/2019 15:37

I also find it a turn on. But if I told hi that he'd think that any sex after we make a baby won't be any good.

He says I pressure him. When in actual fact I've said nothing until today about babymaking in fear of him feeling pressurised. So I think he's pressurising himself and projecting it onto me.

I've left work. Can't cope. Going home so he can tell me some more how shit I am

I also find it a turn on too! (actually so does DH... which is why I think it was post Ovulation that he suddenly realised maybe we shouldnt have been TTC...)

Frazzle I think you have hit nail on the head actually, he does sound like he is putting the pressure on himself. Maybe he feels as though he isnt performing well enough as you two havent had any luck yet (it is common for us women to feel like that after all?) and that is why he gets so reluctant to actually BD? No clue how you get him out of that hole though!

I think I ovulated as my temperature was up this morning plus the opk I did this morning (a non-IC) was resoundingly negative so I think last night I just read too late. Whichever day it was I'm quite happy with our timing this month and think we definitely have a shot.

So now I'm in the TWW at 3dpo according to fertility friend. Anyone around the same time as me?

Did you manage to speak to a midwife Twittle?

Buggles1 · 26/02/2019 06:14

Good luck @Kinsters, fx.

Kinsters · 26/02/2019 06:21

Thanks Buggles! How are you feeling?

TwittleBee · 26/02/2019 06:39

I couldn't get hold of anyone after work so going to try again on my lunch break. Guessing they really are over stretched here.

Good luck Kin ! FX.

Hi guys, I’ve been lurking but hope everyone is ok Flowers

I had another MC in December at 8 weeks which fucking sucked and I’m currently 4dpo and keeping everything crossed that we’ve managed it this month as DH is booked in for the snip at the end of March so this is probably my last chance ... so yeah hopefully third time lucky?!

Frazzlerock · 26/02/2019 07:26

Hi all,

@Kinsters good luck lovely xx

@Twittle I know they are overstretched but to leave you hanging like this is awful Sad

Hi @dartmoor, I'm so sorry to read this. May I ask why your DH is getting the snip if you're TTC? You don't have to say if you'd rather not xx

I'm not going to keep moaning but things are still shit.

Also, I will open up a new thread as this one is coming to a close soon, though I'm not sure if I can hang around with you guys much longer as I think DP is pulling the plug, at least temporarily if nothing else. Hello heartbreak again!

I will post a link in a sec for new thread xx
