for doing the actual 'trying' after trying so many months.

 

I am tired of trying...

The actual getting it on or getting motivated for what is generally a very scheduled, non spontaneous coupling??

Or maybe the tricks you can use to help you get pg??

Not entirely sure what the question is.  Sorry.

Sorry, getting motivated.  I am just tired of the 'have sex these 4 days' crap.  I miss spontaneous, romantic, 'we are in the mood' sex.

Oh yeah.  I hear ya.  It's so hard.  Part of me is like okay just suck it up and do what I need to because I don't want to waste the cycle.  This cycle we are in now, I would be surprised if it worked considering we did it twice, both times semi concious in the shower at midnight.  That's just how it worked out for us.

I certainly do not want to think back and know that my child was conceived via a half asleep, not really interested, doing it just because I have to encounter with my DH.  At the same time, if we do get pg, I think I will deal with it pretty well  That will make it all worth it in the end.

Another big part of me absolutely misses the 'jump DH because I actually FEEL like it' part of it.

I don't think there is too much you can do about it besides accept that it is all for a greater good and that it is worth it.  It's the nature of the beast unfortunately.

Have you read "Taking Charge of Your Fertility"?  That is an excellent book that really helps you understand your body and cycles.  If you have been "trying" w/o it, than you really need to read it!!!!

Thanks!  I wish lack of knowledge about fertility was my issue.  That would be easy to fix
