Trouble TTC

spicing it up @ home

I know they have a sex and relationship board but I wanted to ask this here b/c you ladies know exactly what I'm talking about.  Me and my husband have been trying for the last two years to have a baby and honestly sex is starting to feel more like a chore than something to be enjoyed.  The both of us are feeling that way this past cycle was horrible we both couldnt get in the mood and that made it unbearable.

So basically my question is how do you keep things interesting? I have some ideas but I want to add to what I have. Thanks in advance for your comments.

  • When things are getting a little dull, I bust out the lingerie. Cliche, but it seems to work for us.

    Ditto. Basic but it works.

    Kind of odd, that I wish we could get it on today, but I am waiting to O for the IUI and DH is trying to save his sperm! So weird to not have sex in order to try to have a baby!

  • Thanks ladies I will try the lingerie.
  • I feel the same way about things getting "not very romantic" to get romantic. Afternooners help us... they are more impulsive. At night it seems often like "okay, hop on" instead of the intimacy.

    Will have to try the other suggestion too!!

    Thanks for posting!

  • We tried a new game this time around, it didn't work, but it was fun :)

    I bought some flavored powder and put it in three places and told him he had to find it.  I gave him a taste so he'd know what to look for.

    Hallelujah, it's a miracle, I have children AND a signature!
