Cycle 10 Maybe Over Before It Started

HeatherJ · #1 February 6th, 2013, 06:28 AM

So I was supposed to start my 3 Day Cleanse today, but I'm going to be holding off until next month (I started using Evening Primrose Oil instead). The reason I'm holding off is because I'm already pretty sure Cycle 10 will be a bust.

This weekend my SO fell and broke a bone in his arm. He might have to have surgery, but he'll most certainly need a cast. It's hard enough to try to convince him to DTD when he's in one piece, it's going to be like pulling teeth now that he's hurt.

I feel bad that he hurt him self, but he wasn't being careful which is what caused his accident so I'm kind of mad at him too. Maybe he'll surprise me and we'll get some BDing in next week, but I won't be shocked if we don't.

We all understand how you are feeling mad at him and sorry for him at same time . My dh was ill right on o time again !!! So we didn't get in to much bd which really p***** me of tbh. But stay positive your get your bfp in the end it just takes time is all .in the mean time relax a bit and stay healthy hun..

hmm I feel you pain. This month I'll be gone to a conference during ovulation time. It's work related and I have no choice. I will have to be away from home for a few days. It's already giving me anxiety. I know exactly how you feel with you SO, my dh was sick during a couple of my cycles and I could have killed him even though I know he couldn't help it.

I feel a little better today as I talked to him & told him he was going to have to "take one for the team". He knows I'm not too happy with him, so he agreed. We'll see how much BDing we actually get in with him being in a cast. Thank you for all your support! It really helps to have people who understand what you are going through!

I was woundering something.. I had a temp rise this morning and if it stays high O day was friday. we bd on tuesday night I worried we missed our chances is that enough time still to get pregnant or should I count myself out?

vickyblueeyes · #10 February 9th, 2013, 07:08 AM

Yes hun those swimmers can stay alive up to 7 days I think

Hopingforonemore · #11 February 9th, 2013, 07:20 AM

I've read the best time to get pregnant is three days before you ovulate! Sounds perfect to me.

man I hope so would be nice to finally have a normal cycle for a change.. praying its stays up so I dont have to watch my body anymore lol..thanks girls i feel better

divermom · #13 February 10th, 2013, 06:26 AM

well wishful thinking no O yet looks like my pattern is every other month so far now that I just looked out how its been..so will keep at it lol.. no temping or opk..still.this is hard. lol

Hopingforonemore · #14 February 10th, 2013, 06:34 AM

I know what you mean, bding can become a chore when you are ttc. I wish it didn't have to be that way.

vickyblueeyes · #15 February 10th, 2013, 10:00 PM

Its not fair is it ttc shouldn't have to be this clinical or hard !! For any of us . When all we want is to have and love a new baby and welcome them into our families . Life is a b**** .but if will power and commitment are any thing to go by . We will get there girls !!! Stay strong our bfp are coming real soon . Good luck to us all .

divermom · #16 February 11th, 2013, 12:39 PM

oh Im counting on it lol it will happen if not this month but next it willl evil laugh lol

So I knew we were probably out of luck this cycle & now I'm pretty sure that is confirmed. I mentioned BDing today, tomorrow & Saturday to my SO & he was like "Well Friday and Saturday for sure, but I'm not sure about today". I'm so annoyed with him right now. Mother Nature really doesn't take his schedule in to account in regards to TTC.

I really feel that he should be more accommodating in regards to BDing as the reason we had to wait so long to try is 80% his fault. Argh. At this point I almost feel like stopping all the extra stuff (charting, OPK's etc) as the real problem is just not BDing at the right time.

Sorry about the vent, I'm just really annoyed today.

(((HUGS)))

Seems lately either DH has been gone for work when I need him home, or something happens and mentally either one of us is like "aw, no BD now..." We're facing some challenges right now---nothing life threatening, thank God--but my DH is genuinely one of those types of folks that when he's stressed---BDing is NOT going to happen. Period. Right now, the main issue is he's gone a LOT---I'd classify him as a geographic bachelor he's gone so much---and he comes home right smack in the middle of AF and leaves before my cycle is done or is just done...SIGH...

Don't be sorry about venting---many times when one of you ladies vent, it makes me feel (selfishly speaking)--"YAY!--I'm not the only one!"

divermom · #19 February 15th, 2013, 12:14 AM

I just went throught that.. my husband finally got into a town postistion this november. kinda hard getting use to being home lol.. he was always come home right when af started and leave right before it was time were lucky to even catch it that is 1 of the reasons why it has taken us almost 3 years to get there because he was gone for 2 to 3 months at a time and home for 2 to 4 weeks but my cycles are so wack we missed it almost ever time... so glad it over.now if we can just get there before june it will be ok other wise were done trying for good 40 is my cut off.
