Trying to Get Pregnant

A little ticked at my hubby

Well yesterday we were supposed to have sex and we didn't! We have been having sex every other day!

Well I guess I know what will be happening tonight :)

  • Well he is the one that planned on the every other day method so that's why I am a little upset about it. And planning sex isn't that much fun but either is temping, and charting but everyone else does it, including you so are you sucking the fun out of baby making as well?

    *Not trying to be a *** but that's just how I feel, no one every really talks about the stress/lack of fun with trying to conceive...until you find message boards like this*

    I think what Sticks was trying to say is that you shouldn't be "ticked" at him because he didn't want to have sex one night. Shiit happens...I'm sure there are nights when you don't feel like it either so neither of you should have to feel bad for that.

    And I actually do find charting and temping to be fun....it's like a science experiment and I look forward to doing it.

  • Truthfully, I wish I COULD plan it more.  EOD sex is just a fantasy for me.  MH has ED, so it's kind of impossible.  We really just have sex when the right mood strikes and the cards all fall in our favor.  IMO, you shouldn't be mad at your husband because he's unable or unwilling to have sex one time.  Consider yourself lucky if he doesn't have problems.

    Not to butt in or anything,  I just thought Saucy's answer was perfect. It's hard as anything to schedule it perfectly and sh** happens.

    Sorry that I am getting on your nerves but you don't even know me. It's a little weird that you let someone that you don't know bother as much as I do. Again, sorry that I get on your nerves.

    Yeah I agree with Sticks. God, if I got "ticked" at my husband because he didn't want to have sex one night, this would be one miserable journey. Some days it just doesn't work out. That's ok!  

  • Temping and peeing on things are the LAST thing on my mind when DH and I have sex.  Those things don't take the fun out of my sex life.  At all. :)

     Now, on to the missing a day with the EOD plan.  DH and I missed a few days when we were doing that system.  One of us would be too tired, or something would come up... it happens.  I did feel more pressure to have sex keeping that strict EOD schedule.  Have sex two days in a row to make up for it! 

     Don't get mad, Get laid!

    (I made that last part up just for you :)

  • To OP, if you aren't trying to sound like a ***, then don't.  I agree with sitcks, and until you know someones situation, don't be so quick to judge.  Until you really know what it's like to have a situation where it really ticks you off, you shouldn't be so quick to be ticked at your DH.  People do get tired, don't want to, aren't in the mood, as PP said sh*t happens.

    As a couple of other girls said, I as well enjoy Charting, and temping very much.  It's feeds my obsessive personality!

  • You can plan it AND keep it fun. My H knows we are doing it at least every other day, but I don't make an issue out of it. I just keep an eye out for the opportunity on a daily basis and go for it. I seems spontaneous to MH, but really it was planned.

  • I hear both sides.

    Last monday, I was pretty sure I was going to O on Tue (and I did) so I came home from work and suggested we have sex. DH was super tired from a long day at work, it was already 8:45 when I got home. So I was a bit sad he declined. That day would have been key :(

     BUT, I wasn't mad at him. I don't want him to feel used.

     I can see what you mean - it's stressful. I will admit sex is more about baby making than pleasure these days. It's tough.

    THIS 100% Even if you are planning it, don't let him in on the plan. He will just think that you have the major hots for him and want to hump his brains out. That is how DH and I are approaching this. He knows what is up, and what we are doing,  but he doesn't have to know that "this is my perfect day" just randomly hit it up in the sack! He will love it!

  • I think you need to cut him a little slack is all. It's your first cycle right? You don't even know when you ovulate yet.  I am sure when he suggested the everyday thing, he was thinking how awesome it was going to be to have sex all the time... and then maybe realized that it's not as much fun when you're tired or you feel pressured or it becomes like a job.  I promise you, one day isn't going to matter in the long run.

    Temping and peeing on things are the LAST thing on my mind when DH and I have sex.  Those things don't take the fun out of my sex life.  At all. :)

     Now, on to the missing a day with the EOD plan.  DH and I missed a few days when we were doing that system.  One of us would be too tired, or something would come up... it happens.  I did feel more pressure to have sex keeping that strict EOD schedule.  Have sex two days in a row to make up for it! 

     Don't get mad, Get laid!

    (I made that last part up just for you :)

    edit - I fail this morning

    I think you need to cut him a little slack is all. It's your first cycle right? You don't even know when you ovulate yet.  I am sure when he suggested the everyday thing, he was thinking how awesome it was going to be to have sex all the time... and then maybe realized that it's not as much fun when you're tired or you feel pressured or it becomes like a job.  I promise you, one day isn't going to matter in the long run.

     

    This! Plus, it has to make him feel used.

     For sure.  MH and I have a running joke that I'm only interested in him for his swimmers :)

    I agree. When DH knows we're supposed to have sex, he feels pressured and can't perform. The first time I got upset over it, he felt awful and it really hurt our relationship for a few days!
