I'm Currently Feeling: | Sick of sex! Is it just me, or are other long term TTC'ers sick of sex too
Sure, it was fun in the beginning but now its all timed and a bit of an anxious time each month its kinda taken the fun out of it
Even DH is sick of it and we find ourselves each month going "not again" and celebrating when its over!
Surely trying to make a baby shouldn't have to feel like this, but I guess when you prepare youself for yet another disapointment and just have sex to get pregnant its not exactly romantic!
Ok...please tell me i'm not the only one  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | We always go hard core (heheeh) around O time, but apart from that hardly do it. We used to do it out of love and enjoyment a good 4 times a week. Now its only for a baby. Its almost like infertility has ruined our sex lives! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hi FLJ,
I can totally sympathize (sorry sp) before we found out oh had azoospermia sex got like that for us, it was always planned and felt more like a chore than anything else there was so much pressure on BD and always found myse3lf wanting it over with annd wondering if it worked since we have stopped trying our sex lives have went back to normal and we are enjoying it again.
