TTC after 35

Crawling to the finish line...

Ok.  I am really hoping someone has some tips for me.  I feel terrible even asking/venting about this.  I remember reading a post about this a while ago but now I cant find it.  My problem: I really, REALLY dont want to do the BD for the third day in a row!  I have been using FF for 2 months now and last month I failed on temping and basically following what it had laid out for me once I entered all my info but I VOWED this month not to miss a beat.  But FF says I have a total of 4 days I should be BDing (fertile period).  So we missed day one because I fell asleep then got busy day two and day three.  And day four is today and... I dont want to do it!  I am not sure if my lady bits can take any more!  I used to do crap like this in my 20s but when 30s hit, once a week was fine with me. So anyone have any tips or tricks on how to get through this last night?  Also, I still havent had a positive OPK yet so I am thinking that I MAY have to do it if I get a positive OPK tomorrow Tongue Tied .  HELP!

  • This type of BDg is definately different & for some reason each session lasts longer then just for fun sex.. LOL  FYI - semen can live in us for 48 hrs if not longer if your CM is friendly.  Some Drs will suggest every other day so that your SO or DH has more sperm to dispense (not sure what the proper wording would be LOL)... Good luck.

  • I think BDing is most important the day of the positive OPK AND the two days after. IUIs are done with my doctor the day after the positive OPK. Good Luck!

     

  • I understand how hard TTC can be, but maybe you and DH should go out on dates before BDing or change it up in the bedroom to make it less of a chore. 

    Good Luck!
