    ((tinks)) yuk needles!

    I'm so glad it's not just me struggling to get OH to BD! Sunday was the first time in a week and I was amazed when he was up for it again last night!!!! Shame it's not at the right time. I didn't realise it was so common.

    This cycle is now hugely long... AF vibes my way please. Don't think I'll ever be so pleased to see it!

    I agree - I didn't know it was so common, and it's a big relief to find other people talking about it on here! I don't feel I can talk to friends in real life about it, it's not fair on DH, but then I imagine a number of my friends are probably having the same issues! (obviously not the ones who get pregnant as soon as they take their knickers off...:rotfl:)

    LOL at all the challenges to get OH's to BD - my OH moans too at the key time (depite claiming we didn't have enough before TTC).

    Op went OK.

    My notes say a laparoscopic diathermy of endometriosis.

    It was done by keyhole so should be an easy ish recovery. I feel OK today, just tired & achy.

    Oh well, if we do get preggers it will be a girl as we BDed 2 days before ov..why does it have to be such a small time window and how on EARTH does anyone ever get pregnant! .

    Just out of interest, What makes you think that?
    You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

    I'm really glad I found this place as the first of my group of friends to be trying. It's nice to offload and find advice! :)

    Sorry cross post. Hope you are ok and make a good recovery quickly. Take care x

    Will also be interested to hear about soy - may try this when I eventually get to next cycle!

    ikkle - its the shettles method (for some reason I was thinking it was the staines method :rotfl: my brain so immature sometimes!)...the theory is that Y sperm are faster than x (girl) sperm so if you want a girl, you have sex 2-3 days before ov and abstain right before ovulation and if you want a boy, you hold off til the night before ovulation.

    Also there is some stuff about depth of penetration and female orgasm favouring Y sperm - i guess if you were desperate to have a child of a certain sex you could do all this, but I will just be happy to be pregnant!! :T

    Oo i am booking our holiday and have just realised if I dont fall this month, I will be ovulating on hols, on our lovely egypt cruise... def no problem with BDing then, we'll be at it every night if I have anything to do with it! :j

    It would be quite romantic to conceive on a lovely cruise boat, quite like that idea :D (PMA!)
