I actually love ours DH took me to Alexandria, Va for our first wedding anniversary. Alexandria was where he proposed to me . We conceived exactly on our anniversary
I went off my BC because it was making me feel bad/killing my sex drive. We talked and decided to not use any other form of BC after we decided we were ready for a LO...I was off BC for a week or two and BAM!
June Siggy Challenge: Dad Fails
Married 7.28.2012 DD born 7.27.2014 BFP 09.2015 - m/c 10.21.2015
One afternoon when we put DS down for his nap, I was in the mood so DH and I had a quickie in the living room. We talked about trying for another baby so I told him to forget about the condom.
I had been on birth control for 8 or so years. I always managed to get six months worth of my BC. So as I was counting it out I realized the last pack would end on our wedding night. Talked to my DH (DF at the time) we decided we would start trying. After 3 or so cycles. The day after the wedding I started my period. Seven days pass period ends and my DH is about to leave for drill for a week. We had sex. A month later my sister kept hinting I looked different. I felt off so I took a test and baby!
I had been charting/temping for 2 cycles and the 1st cycle I didn't even ovulate. The 2nd cycle I thought we had missed it, since my temps said I did, but then we DTD once during my fertile window and THEN my temps spiked afterwards so I guess the first time wasn't it and here I am.
DH was very disappointed he didn't get to 'try' to get pregnant for longer.
I was anovulatory for years and the doctor told us I would need medical intervention to conceive. Around Halloween we decided there was no point to continue using anything to prevent. We had a few particularly intimate days in a row and on the third day I felt myself ovulate. It almost never happens and when it does it's painful, so I knew it happened. It was very much a "holy shit" moment for us. Ten days later we got our BFP. We consider ourselves very blessed given everything the doctors told us.
We were trying for months while I was on clomid. One month I just decided to take a break from the meds and we only had sex twice that month. Apparently, the least likely to get pregnant month was when it happened. No idea the day, I wasn't keeping track.
pretty sure a petri dish was involved but not for lack of trying the "normal" way, haha!
Same story here but we literally gave up trying.
So here is the sexy story. I got all dressed up in a hair net and night gown. I was turned on my DH's cloth shoe covers for sterility. After our RE graced us with his presence 45 minutes late, he shoved a tube up my vag and shot two eggs in. The rest is history!
Totally not being a bitch about your question. This is how I view my conception! Oh and a nice embryologist picked my baby out for me! EEEEK! OH the fun of infertility!
One of my best friends told me about charting and temping at my bachelorette dinner party last July. I started doing that the next day. The month after we got married I found out my SIL was expecting twins. I was so upset that my younger brother was on his 4th and 5th child and I was 31 with none. My body is like clockwork and that same night happened to be the day before I should have ovulated. I never told him that though. Somehow I convinced hubby to do me while tears and snot were running down my face. I made sure to put my legs up over the back of the couch after we were done and it worked.
This is a total myth.
I did this for almost two years and nada.
Not gonna lie though, after IVF and my FET transfer, they plop you in a bed with your hips very elevated for 25 minutes. Hmmmm.
@abchittam we have a similar story! I finally agreed to let DH get a dog after years of pestering, and a month later I finally got my BFP after years of pestering DH!
We never really started trying...just stopped using condoms after the wedding last July. We were "trying" on our honeymoon but when that didn't happen, we just said "whatever happens..." and it happened three months later! I wish I had a good story, but it was just a routine banging lol. It was after he had been away at work for three weeks, so it was definitely an enthusiastic session at least.
DH was back home after 5 months of traveling. Not TTC but not preventing. I rented a weeks worth of porn, dressed up every night after work. It was like a sexcation... SO MUCH FUN. A month later we're partying our asses off in Vegas when I get a random fever. Whatever, it's Vegas and I have incredible shoes to wear... I man up. Until we get home and I take a really OLD test lying around... + I fully plan on teasing my kid having went back and bought the porn... A gift at 16 to keep him using condoms???
