My Husband... SMH lol

in Babies on the Brain

So if talking BD is TMI for you then skip this post but...


I am officially off my BC for about a month now and have been temping just to keep track of my cycles and become more educated about what's going on in my body. So with the removal of BC both DH and I have accepted that pregnancy is a possibility and we would be so happy if that happened BUT we are not going to actively TTC until next summer-ish. So last night he was trying to talk me into BD and I kept saying I'm in my fertile window.. I'm in my fertile window... I'm pretty positive that I am ovulating today or tomorrow... We could potentially end up pregnant.. And he goes "well that'd be ok" .....  !!!!!

I'm like come ON now you know I am baby crazy over here and you say something like that LOL! Anyone else have unhelpful husbands in this waiting period?! Spoiler alert, we ended up DTD

:))

    Yes, very similar to what happened. Before I got pregnant this year we were like let's start at the end of this year (Oct-Dec) and that was early. I went off the pill at the beginning of May to get my body ready and my husband was like well let's just see what happens lol Before I stopped the pill I was like are you sure? I could very well get pregnant right away. And he was like that would be fine if it happened. 

    In my head I'm thinking the end of this year was early for you because you wanted to wait now you don't care if it happened now? Well it happened right away. I think they use I want to do this, or be that as an excuse because they are secretly want kids earlier too or just scared a little which is fine. My husband was terrified when I told him because everything was flooding through his mind but once he got over the shock lol he gets more and more excited. 

    Glad you and your husband did it :)

    You are so right! I think most men are like that where they feel more nervous than women saying they are ready for babies because I feel like no one is ever really ready and as women maybe we can wrap our heads around that easier than they can lol! Congrats to you and your husband!!

    The other day my husband said, "We should start trying before we wanted to because it can take a while to get pregnant".  To which I said, "Or it takes one time..."

    Good luck!

    I think there's a big stigma among husbands and SOs around "trying." H is afraid it will become annoying and take over our lives if we have to time sex (which isn't my planned approach, just his fear). Just having sex and seeing what happens, however? He's all over that! No objection to the sex or baby parts of the equation.

    My and my hubby's story is completely different! He was considered "infertile", after having surgery and a mesh placed around in that area. Somehow, by the time my Birthday came along in March, I found out I was preggers. And with the way my cycle set, it was at the very first day of April I found out. I honestly thought the pregnancy test were pulling an "APRIL FOOLS!" Joke on me. :)) But they weren't! And we will have our little one around Christmas this year. :)

    Something both my SO and I wanted, even IF we ended up having to have In-Vitro, or AI. It all was "setup" for it to happen for us, I'm guessing! :x

    We are in the same boat. I went off BC for the same reason. If it happens it happens , but we are not trying. We avoid sex around ovulation time, or use other means of protection. But once we were having a night in... It had been raining for days and we were getting sick of being stuck inside. We decided to have a couple close friends over for a game night. He decided to go to store to get drinks, I just wasn't feeling in the mood to drink. I just kept telling him I'll stick to my ice tea or water. He was getting pushy rattling off my favorite drinks. I kept saying no no, I'm fine. Finally hes like "what's wrong? Are you pregnant?" I took that opportunity to give it back... Joking I said "I think so" in a serious voice. He actually smiled and said "really!??" My reply... "No, not really. Let's have margaritas."
    It's nice to know that he wouldn't be crazy upset if it happened soon ha-ha. But still would rather not have it happen now.

    I have been baby crazy since the day we got married but I knew that I didn't really want a baby with out him on board. So we decided about a year and a half and we could start. 6 months into it and he wants to try for a baby! It is so exciting when your DH is the one excited and wanting to begin already <3  I was not expecting it at all! Still in shock! This is our first month of TTC and I'm thrilled to have a DH just as excited!
