    Hi QQ - Im having a no work day - V i a g r a surprise cake out?
    Im hoping your oh does make the deposit :)
    Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
    Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?
    It's not always easy,And sometimes life can be deceiving,
    I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together

    QQ, hope the deposit is made! Its odd that the pressure wasnt on and he still had issues. Do you think he has kinda built himself up becuase of the previous issues and is now a little worried every time?

    I wonder if it is physical as well?

    Previous issue was back in July, in August, the doctor suggested me not to tell DH when I ov to take the pressure off, so he only did it once that week:o It was near ov, but obviously it didn't work.

    Oh, there were few other times like on our wedding night:D As well as back in January when I told him ov is close:p

    Well, confession time, ive lurked for ages and posted a couple of times on the old thread.

    Good luck with fate :) im sure it will smile on you soon, ive managed to see OH a lot (i split live) but next week will be away all week and with this hanging over us now im sure i will be totally mental and needy (which bugs me more than him lol)

    When do you see your OH next?

    QQ, your post has made me realise i dont know nearly enough about the male functioning bit (although, since im a bit squeemish and prudish its probably a good thing)

    I have heard that tiredness and stress etc can make it more difficult, and OH is never as keen to perform after a two or three pints (although he is very keen to perform after one lol)

    At the mo I dont actually know - weve pencilled in roughly end of the month depending on af/ov (however if I get to test next week and get a bfp itll be next week as Ill go and surprise him :) )

    Confession - I also have very little idea about the male bit but Im learning here all the time :) my oh is also keen to perform after one or two lol any more than that and can forget about that (hes cut down on his drinking lately so two is really his limit now lol)

    He could have been tired, he came back from overnight overseas work trip that day, and he went swimming in the evening.
    If that is the case, why initiate it?:huh:

    I would love to give you the answer, but i have issues understanding my own OH and i know him better than he knows himself sometimes lol

    I know my OH sometimes initiates as he wants to feel loved (when really he could just as for a cuddle as i do lol)

    Wow, end of the month!! Im really nosey and now want to ask you all sorts of other questions about how often you see him and what you have planned for when baby gets here (told you im nosey)

    On the TTC side - i finally managed to get through the section on the signs to look for in the What to expect book and managed to read the cervical mucus bit without stopping to save my squeemishness and now know what to look for (although im not sure i will be testing it quite yet:o)

    Aww QQ that sucks, Viagra cake sounds like a great idea ;) Is there maybe something particular you could do that tickles his fancy coincedently around OV time to get him keen?

    My OH DTD around OV time and nothing since, I think its very hard for it to not affect your sex life and there is nothing worse than knowing you need to DTD but not being in the mood, the pressure spoils it i think :(
