did he just suggest I lay upside down?!

[cutieq]

That awkward moment when your hubs gets more addicted than you are! When I mentioned testing, charting, charting & symptoms he used to think I was crazy. tonight i discover that he's been doing his own research. he's now obsessed with my fertile days, asking me to "not pee after we BD" and suggesting that i lay upside (someone has been watching shameless). I don't have it in my heart to tell him this stuff isn't that easy

File this under very odd, yet very adorable!

How does your partner respond to you TTC? Are they into it?

My husband has windows of fixation. Some months he knows exactly where I am in my cycle and some months he has no clue. I will say that since we are as far along in this process that we are now, he has become much more understanding and helpful. I do think there is too much incorrect information out there. Its hard to separate the bad, good, and maybe useful.

yea i try very hard not to tell him where I am in the cycle. Except this month, I got all geeked and told him! I'll do better this time around... This plan backfires when he's excited and hopeful and I know that I'm not ov'ing

Do u usef opks?

 

[cutieq]

yes. I used them for the first time this month. predict easy and it took a lot of stress off of knowing getting the positive opk!

 

[baby_rose]

May i ask what brand? I used the dollar tree ones since i thought i wouldn't catch anything but i did last cycle not sure which ones to use on This one

That's adorable! Last cycle I actually put sticky notes with my fertile days written on it and posted them on our bedroom wall. It drives me nuts b/c he never has any idea where I am in my cycle and therefore no clue when we should be concentrating on BD. I have to manage all the information, the least he could do is find out what is happening when and stay informed. He has done a little research on his own, so that surprised me. This is cycle 4 of TTC and our first cycle temping. I figure we'll give this a few cycles and then maybe go with the opks.
