Just no.

Ewcm yesterday and so dtd and it was almost the end of both of us.

Ovulation pain today and I don't actually know if I'd survive another night!

Anyone else in this light hearted dilemma too?

I'm not suffering this dilemma (no more for me Grin) but I bet doing it in a cool shower would make a big difference...

Then you could just go to bed and not touch all night!

Turkey baster?

I'm not ruling that out. Good call.

Cold shower could also work 😂

Get into a position where no skin is touching!

Yes, it’s hard. My DH caught covid early last week, then I entered the fertile period. We only managed to dtd once on Saturday, cd17, and then I had the lh peak on Sunday and we tried to dtd that night too but we were both hot, sun burnt, and it just didn’t happen. So we only managed to dtd once in the whole fertile period, while dh was still testing positive but no longer symptomatic. I’m not holding much hope this cycle.

On the upside it’s my first time tracking both lh and bbt, it’s nice to see the progression and for it to line up with my cm and just confirm ovulation rather than estimating it.

I'm a bit past trying to conceive, but the shower is the current venue of choice or if I'm feeling interested, but tired/lazy & he's still up for it, any position that avoids more than the necessary bits to come in contact!!

Ah nightmare @Blue2020 we both had covid last month so bbt tracking went out the window as we had fevers. We did the deed once in that week too, but not a success.

Cold shower dtd was the winner this evening.

@WinterMusings 'necessary bits' made me chuckle.
