TTC after 35

Momma never warned me about days like this!

Today is MH's and my 3rd anniversary. Now, for me, I've always felt that anniversaries, birthdays, etc. are mandatory sexy-times. And that has never been a problem before-- I have always been happy to follow that rule of mine.

But this month, tonight would be the 14th night in a row of sexy time. After 18 times last month. I'm soooooo not in the mood right now. Which is probably exactly why I should make sure I do something fun/special for MH tonight. 

I guess I'm just whining and throwing a little pity party for myself... *sigh* Thanks for listening...

  • Oh I completely feel your pain..

    While dh and I are only on the "every other night" plan, I think because we have been TTC for 36 months--this month has been particularly hard to "get in the mood".  Last night I was so tired (in general AND of TTC) that we put in the least amount of effort possible to get the job done.  Today FF told me I O'd 5 days ago..I have never been so happy to know I can just go to bed tonight.

    I think tonight you should give yourself a break.  Make it all about celebrating your big day.  Dinner and a movie or just enjoying each others company..  Forget the TTC stuff.  Happy Anniversary!

  • Hey Happy Anniversary! My 3rd is on the 26th. I actually thought of you the other day when my RE said not to have sex..first because of estrogen then now because of Provera. It will be like 2 months! How would D&W survive....haaahaa.

    I agree with Llama...give yourself a break :)

  • I agree with the other ladies just go have fun with your Hubby and if you feel like dancing do but its ok to take a night off from TTC for a special occasion.
    Me 39 & suspected PCOS, DH 42. Went off BCP when we got married in 11/11, seriously TTC since 3/12.  Six cycles of clomid = BFNs.  Suspected endometriosis & HSG showed both tubes blocked.  Sept 2013 IVF 5D transfer of two perfect embryos = BFN.  Started acupuncture and taking time off to drop some pounds & get healthier before FET in April 2014.
  • Happy anniversary! Hope it's enjoyable bd or not.
