    OH. Can barely get a conversation out of him these days so any actual action is so unlikely. It's like he can't actually see me.

    But enough of my moaning :o

    Tea its not cause the cat is in the room is it? DH refuses to do it if the dog might be watching.

    It is offputting though isn't it?! He (the cat) once came in halfway through and sat on my feet :rotfl:.

    Can't blame all of this on my lovely moggy though... OH just not interested. Not just in BD, in going anywhere, spending any time together. Can't remember the last time there was eye contact, a hug, anything.

    We've been known to be especially quiet and move as little as possible so as not to disturb our cat! We pander to that animal...

    Sorry things are hard tea xx

    Afm nothing to report. Nothing at all. Frustrating limbo :)

    We just don't if the dog is in the room, which is why he doesn't get to sleep in our bedroom. Of course it doesn't help that he growls everytime DH touches me.

    Hugs tea. Men are odd creatures sometimes.

  • Thanks for all your thoughts ladies. I'm using my cbfm this month but I might give it a miss for a couple of months after. oh will be away working here and there anyway so it will take some of the stress out of it.

    Hugs Tea. Sorry you're having a tough time. I assume there's more to it but stressing about ttc can really test a relationship.

    Oh tea. :( *hugs*

    Are you getting any quality time together at all? Are there any hobbies you share that you could spend some time doing, can you get away (even just for a night)?

    Ha ha - your comments about the cats and dogs made me laugh - we've got two cats and have the shut the door to our bedroom when we DTD to stop them jumping all over us!

    We have to leave all the doors open in our house as the cats like to do laps!

    Tea - sorry to hear you're having a bad time of it at the moment - the whole journey of TTC is so stressful and relationships do suffer, I'm sure of it. Could you try going back to how things were when you first got together with your OH, have date nights and try to take the pressure of TTC away. The good men are worth fighting for!

    AFM - AF has finally arrived again after the latest MC so looks like we can start again this coming cycle.

    We're off on hols next week as we've had such a rubbish year so we have booked a last minute holiday and are going 5 star - can't wait!

    Hope you all have a good day ahead
