We all know that ttc sex can be horrible. So in preparation for o'ing next week, I decided to jazz things up a bit with dh. We met after work at a park yesterday, and had sex in the back of the car. This morning when we woke up and my back was sore, and dh's knee was bothering him, we realized that we are not in our 20's anymore.
TMI?!
My History: Lots of BFN's & failed IUI's w/clomid and/or femara Finally BFP with femara & t.i.- son born 6/17/2010 Started TTC again around when DS was 3ish Lots of BFN's with femara & t.i & ovidrel Tubes clear, S.A came back low motility but high count About to switch to injectables w/femara, did one last cycle with just femara & an IUI with ovidrel- stupid motility was fantastic in the sample, but count was 700,000 AFTER wash!

Haha awesome. We were away last weekend and tried random sex and ended up just laughing our asses off at our attempt with no grand finale. I'm sticking to the bed now.
Me: 32, DH: 33 DS #1: April 2010 DS #2: July 2015 (preemie born at 31 weeks) - our little miracle conceived through ART - unexplained secondary infertility/adenomyosis
Serious props for being brave enough to conquer that conquest, DH has been bugging to go "park" but the car seems so... idk lol, people sit in my car haha, people don't sit in my bed.
I had serious thoughts about going to the car today. I am so bored of TTC sex! DH, on the other hand, is still mentally in the rut and as soon as I went to draw the blinds to at least attempt the living room he got up and started for the bedroom... If I called him on it the spontaneity would have been gone so I just followed him. Oh well. We're supposed to be married forever, right? We'll figure out how to have fun again eventually!
We have only ever had sex in the car one time. It was a the drive in and DH was so paranoid the entire time that some one would walk up and see us. I couldn't imagine doing it in the car at a park! But serious props for mixing things up.
Happily Mrs. C

In out early 20's we were very adventurous when it came to sex & foreplay in random places, and my dh wishes I was still like that. I took one for the team, and I guess I need to do it more often for dh's sake. It was pretty exciting though, just a bad sign when you need a bengay rubdown the next day. LOL
