    Morning ladies

    Feeling a bit down this morning, never got round to dtd last night and we have had a mini falling out over it this morning :(.

    He phoned me yesterday and said "ooh can't wait to get home, feeling horny" and I was like goodoh me too just the right timing too. He did say no doubt I would be checking when I am fertile and I said already done -NOW ;). Unfortunately by the time bed time came he was no longer in the mood (he is definately a morning person) and I was too peed off to attempt to make him in the mood.

    I know it shouldn't just be about "making babies" and he doesn't like the idea of getting all clinical about it, he just wants it to happen WELL LOVE YOU HAVE TO HAVE SEX AT THE RIGHT TIMES :mad::mad:! I fell pregnant with my DD very quickly, the month I came off the pill in fact but I have been off the pill since February and although not been actively trying, kind off expected it to happen like that again. I am also aware that we are getting older and it could take longer this time round (not old though he will be 37 at weekend I am 34 so I know still pelnty time).

    Sorry for the rant ladies, I know there are many of you on here that have been trying for a long time but just needed to vent, feels a bit like rejection when he does this and I tend to take it personally:o.

    Well better get organised for work, dd is still sleeping better get her up or we'll be late!

    Take care everyone and sorry again for whinging, have a good day and SBDTA xxx

    Woo hoo. Have made it 10 dpo. Still spotting and have been since OV so am as CD28 today. Usually have 27/28/29 day cycles.

    Was going to do a sneaky test this morning but realised I only had a little pee in me after getting up earlier then realised the test I had was a mid-stream and I certainly didn't have enough for that!

    Need to convince myself it's a BFN tomorrow or maybe body will kick in today and AF will slap me on the butt cheeks! :D

    Sorry you're feeling pants Teenie. I'm usually in the same boat as DH is a morning guy so when I look at FF it's all..am am am am for bonking. I'd say if it doesn't happen at the night when you want, I can never sleep as I expect to pounce as soon as the fella is stirring. Catch em unawares and be a morning minx. No point stressing over it as it will only cause tension and push him (and baby making) further away.

    Send him a make up text and make up for it tonight.

    Morning ladies......

    Hello to cleo

    Fantafan defo sounding good for you this month - not long to wait now to do a test but I'd wait until defo late - so CD30 - I know I've got my hopes up previously and tested before the end of my longest cycle and been disappointed. It does sound good though - good luck!!

    Teenie D ahh honey.... I know what you mean. I'm on CD10 right now and I estimated in fertile time anytime from CD5 to CD19 and so we're making a concerted effort at the moment. We've BD'ed every day for last 5 days and we're normally a 4x a month couple if we're lucky so it is feeling rather forced at the moment and not very romantic. It's tough though, it's important to do it at the right times and if it's not done at the right time, that month can be seen as a waste. Maybe try not to make it explicit when your fertile times are and be more vague about it.... then jump him randomly in the morning. Remember, men are all about the ego and he'll want to think that you want to DTD with him coz you fancy the pants off him and not just 'cause you want some of his swimmers..... Good luck!!! :)

    As i say above, CD10 and lots of BDing so far (well, at least 5 times this month and that's amazing for us!!) I'm in the first phases of EWCM and I expect the little stabbing pain of ovulation over the next 2 days so more BD tonight and tomorrow at least. The thing that is worrying me is our expectations.... this is our first *proper* month of trying, previous attempts have been a few BDs randomly during the month, and maybe one or two actually in my fertile time (but probably after OV if I'm honest). This time, we're really trying and so if it's a BFN I think we'll both be really upset. Doesn't help either that we're starting to decorate the spare room (not as a nursery, but plainly with the intent that one day it may become a nursery) and we're both getting rather excited about the idea of being a mummy and daddy. :)

    Ah well....

    Lots of baby dust, horny thoughts and good quality BDing to all, and lots of repressive thoughts to all those AFs out there - hoping for no AFs this month!!! :):):)

    Thanks fantafan, I know I was probably being a bit silly about it, our sex live isn't all that "active" so I do feel rejected when he isn't in the mood (again!).

    Anyway onwards and upwards (lol so to speak :o) I will text him later, and just jump him tonight instead :D:D.

    Anyway really will have to go good luck FF keeping everything crossed for you x

    Thanks guys. I have one query....why is spotting since OV a good sign? Most people get ikky stuff down there.

    Maybe I need to push my test date to Thursday..although I've just looked on FF and I've had 28, 30, 26, 30 day cycles. What's the average....28.5.....right. Erm. CD29 tomorrow...I don't think I can wait til Thurs or can I?

    Suppose I better get up. God bless Flexi time!

    Morning ladies, CD12 and High :T not quite a peak, but a good sign anyway, so BD action planned. Annoyingly DH is out tonight at his viking group (I'm a re-enactment widow!) so he won't be back 'til late, fingers crossed we can sneak a quickie in, if not it'll be tomorrow definitely.
    Have a good day all
