    Ohhhh..sex talk...brill!
    We manage about the same as you RebekahR. OH works shifts, so nights and noons are a no no, so that leaves one week in three. So....the deed is just at weekends mostly, plus when he is on days it takes me a few days to aclimatise to him being about as I've been on my own and tend to shut down my social skills!

    Like others, I think OH will have a heart attack when it comes to TTC! Better than winning the lottery!
    My OH is a !!!!!! for trying it on 10 minutes before tea is ready or we've got to be somewhere on time, which then I can't relax and it all goes pear shaped!

    Wiht regards to names, if it's a boy, me and other half have seriously considered Danger as the middle name. We hoped they would appreciate the joke when they are older or to help pull the ladies in a really cheesy way! Boys names traditionally follow a JJW pattern on OH side and I always like J names! Probably Joshua is my first instinct.
    Other than that, am quite open to unusual and tradtional; for girl have always liked Jessica, Lily and (weirdie one) Vespa...from Casino Royal. Plus me and OH are complete car freaks, so baby girl would be a VW!

    On another side, re pregnancy scares, my biggest fear is having a poo when pushing so hard. Ohh..the shame! Anyone willing to share biggest fear????

    I think the midwife discretely wipes it away so you don't have to worry.

    Mine is I have visions of my waters breaking somewhere really public like in a supermarket! Think I may take to hiding in the house the last two months! :rotfl:

    'Danger's my middle name!' :cool: Love that! :rotfl:

    I like J names too, as my mum's family are all Js! Joshua is prob our top boy's name, but I also like William. I've decided Joshua is more likely to be a footballer and William a writer! :o

    I'm drawn to the name Sophie for some reason. Sophie will be an actress. :D:rotfl: Thinking about Jasmine for a girl's J name.

    Jessica is nice too. Jacob is also nice, but my friend has just called her baby that. Jonah is nice as well.

    DH's family like to use the father's name as a middle name, but I'm not sure I'm going to carry on that tradition!

    Some lovely names around :)

    My fave for a girl was Chloe, but that is the name my sister chose for her first born. She'll be 12 next week! EEK! I like quite a few names, and have taken some inspiration from Dutch names and some of my intl colleagues.

    Girls: Astrid, Eleanor, Sabine, Evelyn, Ava, Ella, Emily, Ruby, Olivia (there are more I like too - how will we ever choose! lol)
    Boys: Jack, Harry, Jacob, Joshua (a big fave of mine), Ethan, Oliver, Carsten (again there are more)

    When it comes to boys names though, we might use OH's grandad's name as either his first or middle name, because OH's father was useless, but his grandad was always there for him, looking after him and his brother, teaching them things, spending time with them etc. So it would be nice to honour him.

    As for frequency of DTD, don't worry, you guys are average/normal. in my experience (I'm taking this from what others have revealed about their sex lives on here and in RL). OH just has a very high sex drive, and I guess mine must be higher than average, but I would equally be happy with less. I think he compares us to new couples a lot, and we're not, we're 3 and a half years in, so I think we're doing very well. Especially as we are usually very tired after work too. I'd be happy to lose the stuff during the week, and do it more at the weekend. He's gonna freaking love it when we're TTC'ing! lol

    Hope everyone's well xx
