wine and a peephole bra!

seriously i think ttc can get like this and sex stops being fun and becomes about the end product. howlong have you been ttc for?

TheGiftedandTalentedGoat · 14/01/2008 10:13

over 2 years, most of the time it is ok but the sluggish january post 'big christmas tin of roses in my tummy' lethargy is though to combat. also our flat is nipple freezingly cold so peephole bras are out. more like peephole flannel nighties in thsi house.

pmsl. ikewym. maybe a nice meal, bottle of wine and lots of flirting?

have you seen a gp about why its taking a while?

TheGiftedandTalentedGoat · 14/01/2008 10:19

hi lissie, yep been through th whole testing thing. basically nothing wrong, dh's sperm could be better but they are not disasterous. the meal thing doesn't work cos we are too greedy and end up too bloated for action. maybe we should have a romantic candlelit fast!

Why don't you try watching a soppy film together? Could stir up some romantic feelings.....

Dropdeadfred · 14/01/2008 11:17

Do it first..then go downstairs for your meal. Break the routine..don't wait til bed time after you've eaten/got tired etc

TheGiftedandTalentedGoat · 14/01/2008 11:24

dropdeadfred - think you may have hit the nail on the head there! it is hard it is so bloody cold. will turn on teh electric blanket early!

soppy film - not good for dh as he is such a cynic. god there is no hope for us.

Right before you want to "do it" have a bit of alone time with Pink World. Always works for me if I'm not in the mood.

In the same position as you Gifted

Saturday mornings are no problem for us, but we can't BD in the mornings during the week as we have enough difficulty dragging our arses out of bed as it is. By the time we both get home we're usually frazzled.

Much as we love each other, it is difficult to keep up the BD'ing. Mind you, I've been feeling that DH isn't quite as onboard as I am with this whole TTC business, but after a big chat last week he's no longer of the opinion that we should just see what happens and, like me, wants to know that we have been giving it our best shot.

Maybe you should have a chat with your DH? Also, I've found that while I may not start out in the mood, I soon 'warm up' so to speak

TheGiftedandTalentedGoat · 14/01/2008 11:29

whaty is pink world! don't dare google. problem is i am a morning person but since having dd morning hanky panky is oout of the question. we are resorting to taking a day off next week and hopefully puting dd in nursery!

Snog. Lots.
It's the only thing that keeps our flame going, what with scar problems and a very active DD.

paulaplumpbottom · 14/01/2008 12:49

Just be forewarned that the sites with stories can sometimes have stories about incest and children. It is disturbing

iliketosleep · 14/01/2008 13:46

if this has turned into a porn site thread then can i suggest www.redtube.com

As for your problem i have no clue as im exactly the same at the moment.............

FurtivelyPosting · 14/01/2008 13:46

Lol - you know, when I suggested 'soppy films' earlier, I thought about adding '...or some porn ' but didn't in case I offended anyone. Glad to see that it works for others!!

mrsruffallo · 14/01/2008 13:47

Have a drink

MrsTittleMouse · 14/01/2008 18:44

Have just told DH that MN recommended porn for TTC. He is now a BIG fan of MN.

OracleInaCoracle · 14/01/2008 19:07

3andnomore · 14/01/2008 19:17

lol at the noel edmunds reference in the title...now, that guy would put anyone off,or is that just me, lol!

Must admit, it always raised my libido big time when we were ttc'ing....

pampering, trying something new/different, erotic literature,
