Sometimes I wish I didn't have to get DH off just to get his sperm. LOL.
Example: We got into a small fight last night. And even though I'm in my fertile window I couldn't bring myself to give him the pleasure just so I could have his sperm.
Do you have a TTGP confession?
Re: TTGP Confession
I completely agree! There are times I wish I could just snap my fingers and have his "man juice" without having to do anything!
TTC can definitely take the spark out of love-making sometimes!
IVF #1 w/ ICSI 9/2012 (10M 6F), ET 9/24 (1 good pre-blast), BETA 10/4= BFN,
IVF #2 Microflare w/ ICSI 12/2012 (19M 7F), ET 12/16 (2 Good blasts),
BETA 12/26= BFP (356), BETA 12/28 (840) 2nd Ultrasound shows TWINS!!
Ha - that's funny.
I had to badger DH into sex on Sunday night and then failed on Monday, so even though we should probably still be humping it out, I am tired of initiating.
This exactly!
I did say something once... he was all trying to hold out for me, and he said "I'm close, I'm trying to hold out" and I yelled "Do it!! Do it!! GO!!" LOL!!!
Bahahaha! That's a good one. Maybe I should have tried that last night.
Let's just say I'm a little more "forgiving" during O week. I tend to have to bite my tongue more than usual so that I don't make a mountain out of a mole hill. 'Cause once DH and I have a good disagreement, it usually takes a few days to resolve itself enough for me to want to sleep with him.

hahaha this is me exactly!!! Although it only takes us a day to talk and work things out...but I am way more forgiving and less likely to pick small stupid fights (even if I am hormonal...I bite my tongue a lot!) to ensure that we will both be "in the mood" to get the job done lol.
This happens to us a lot. Would it kill DH to initiate once in a while?
This thread makes me feel better and cracks me up.
My strategy the last couple of months has been to seduce DH either as I wake him in the a.m., or as soon as we get home from work. Point being, I make sure we BD before either of us can talk about anything, and therefore risk an argument.
I'm sure he knows what I'm up to, but so far he hasn't protested. Added bonus is that we seem less likely to fight afterwards...

hahahaha, I have done the SAME thing! He always jokes with me, "You just want my seed"
DH has already told me we aren't skipping any days next cycle. He is starting to really want this baby as much as I do!
TTC #2
There have definitely been times I REALLY don't want to, but I rally since it is fertile time.

Haha. Funny topic, mrstran. Oh yes, this has happened to me! Last cycle I got SO mad at him the night before O, I didn't even want to TOUCH him, let alone make him feel good. But I sucked it up, even though I felt like it would kill me.
Sometimes we both get in really goofy moods. Ordinarily, that doesn't coincide with sexy time, but when it's our fertile time we end up talking and laughing through it, it cracks me up!!
Now don't you go feeling sorry for him. He was the one in trouble. I should have been treated and pleasured by him last night not the other way around.
I have done that too. He gets bonus points though. He is taking his vacation (he had to use it or loose it) during my fertile time next cycle. I told him I don't want to have to keep taking meds so we are going to give it all we got. Hope it works!
BWAHAHAHAHA ok, Poor MrsTran!
