TTC when OH works away?

We have been TTC for last 8 months with no success and I think part of that is because my OH works away mon-Fri.

He does come home most weekends but sometimes stays there if there’s extra work on.

I wondering whether anyone else is in the same situation and if anyone has any tips for success? Seems that my ovulation always is mid week when he’s not here Sad

Any way he could have a weeks leave in ur fertile window ? Spend the week together do some nice things in the day then lots of dtd at night ?

Would love that, but Unfortunately not, he’s military so if they say he needs to be in then that’s they way it is. He will be off for Xmas but that isn’t my fertile window which is a shame.
Just need to have fingers crossed that I get some fertile windows at the weekends I guess.

O no that sounds tough. My oh works away Monday to Friday, but when we were ttc he came home on Wednesdays also. That's obviously not possible for you. Hopefully things will align soon as it will work out for you.

Think it’s just going to have to be a case of dtd on a Sunday and then again Friday each week and hope the swimmers survive a couple of days Grin

You could try have sex as close to ovulation day as possible and use pre seed before! It helps the sperm swim up when there is a lack of EWCM and also helps them survive longer!
