I am getting very tired of BDing. I thought I was O on CD 16... but nope! still no O and according to the chart, its nowhere to be found..... my temps haven't risen higher than the cover line yet (


My DH has always been kinda low on energy, so it's getting harder for both of us. Every day I thought it was THE day, so we baby danced... We were enjoying it at first, but I am not in the mood anymore as of today ! I know I have a great chance to be O today or tomorrow based on the previous cycles.


I woke up with a weird feeling in my lower stomach and my nipples are sooo sore! I need to do something asap. to get us in the mood, as DH is leaving for working in a couple of hours . It'd suck to give up TTCAL when we're so close.....

I really hope to see a BFP this month!

Check out my chart if you want to, plz, tell me if you see O on the chart..

I am right there with ya. I get so tired of bding. I just do it and get it over with. Some nights I am so tired and just make myself.

Baby making is hard work. LOL

I know what you mean! I can O anymore from CD19 to CD34, and when it's the later days I am so tired of BDing. I'd almost rather give up that cycle than keep BDing every other day for 3 weeks. I haven't given in to that yet, but some cycles I am so close! Keep up the BDing if you can stand it! Good luck catching the egg.

My DH has a lower libido too. It's hard to get him to do it sometimes and when he's ready, I'm at work or too tired. >.<

i know what you mean ladies. i'm trying to not make it so obvious of "ok! We need to do this now!" I was trying to go every other day, but my chart hasn't been clear, and we missed 1-2 BD nights due to exhaustion/not in the mood. ugh. frustrating.

i was getting the whole - you only want to do it when you ovulate- speech. and i have to say he is right! we do it so much during o time that i have no desire to do it any other time... that is so bad, but i cant help it.

I am pretty sure I am ovulating but don't have an OPK (I will get one for next cycle if this one doesn't work) and so I make DH BD for like 7 days in a row, and I feel kinda bad because he works 11 hour days, and if he falls asleep then I wake him up, so last night I woke him up and then I just couldn't get into the mood, so he got pissed that I woke him up for nothing. He was ready to go, but I wasn't, and yeah so I was so pissed I rolled over and just as I was about to fall asleep he just decided he wasn't getting woke up for no reason so he just had to take charge and we ended up BDing twice. Is it bad to do it more than once a day?

[stephjp]

Agreed....But since Dh and I didn't BD that much since the first of January (due to complications in my pg that led to m/c) I know he will be eager beaver this next go round... and I will be too at first! Let's just hope all of our hard work and sacrifice pays off...right ladies?!

I'm tired of TTC also. It just seems so much harder after a loss. You try and try and try and for nothing. I do enjoying being with DH, but I can't do it so much anymore. Lately it seems like when O time comes around, I'm too exhausted to BD. Ugh....

[mafiamom]

i find it much easier to do it in the morning then in the pm. it is so much easier and i am no so tired!

[jjc99]

I am right there with ya!...that's why I'm trying so hard to not be so obvious with DH! lol I'm hoping if I dtd 1-2 times during the luteal phase, that will help it not be so obvious and selfish during ovulation.

NaTusik I'm sorry

If you're overrit, you're overrit don't force it... it's not going to make ya feel any better ya know There's no guarentee that if you DTD every single day that his spermies will catch the egg in time, we don't have any control over that. If it gets that menontenous try going at it every other day leading up to and a good romp the day after for "safety net"

Definitely hear ya tho!!!

I get to the point of BD'ing not EVERYday because I'm sorry... there's so many different things in my life going on right now that I'm not always in the mood. (physical pain, stress, blah blah blah I'll save ya the story LOL) I still like to get "hot & turned on" with my man and not force the DTD. Sometimes it's actually better to let our man's sperm produce a little more before the next romping which in turn can help make them ae more potent # bunch of swimmers at least that's my philosiphy or what makes me justify my actions at times. (and I've read it in numerous places) Don't get me wrong I worried about catching the egg sometimes and would get the mood going within a good 24-36hrs to increase our chances.

[Natalie_Snow]

^Thank you!
I do not know why I wanted to BD every day this cycle. If it was every other day, we wouldn't be tired! We will see how this every day method pays out . So, if I do not get a BFP this cycle... we will switch to every other day BDing. Too late to switch this time as I am about to O today or tomorrow...

[Celena]

Good luck honey, I'm sorry you're so tired but it's a GOOD tired hee hee!

Hope you get that and you MUST keep us posted

[LisaG825]

Good luck. Don't give up now!!! Hope you catch that egg!
