TTC a BOY May Chit Chat Thread

[love being a mummy]

LBAM, it's really hard to know when you O'ed because your cycles are so irregular and you haven't been using OPKs. If you don't get a bfp this time are you going to actively ttc?

Here's to May and all those bfps!!

No probably not.

lbam that is such a long cycle.

Yeah it is a long cycle. I've been going over my chart and I had a 44 day in April last year.

Thanks for kicking off May with such an AWESOME pic, Cinss!

Bec, I think this is a question worth asking because many of us are porn newbies....maybe others can hop in, and I know it's a funny subject sometimes- but what kind do you guys watch together? I have read a few stories about couples ttcing and watching porn together to keep it spicy....plus, and sorry for tmi, but it does tend to get you both turned on so you do have a greater chance at having a big O, and your DH will likely (again, sorry) shoot a pretty "strong" load. But here's my thing- I can watch whatever by myself, which I rarely do, but watching something TOGETHER is a new ball game. I can't watch anything too gross or freaky, kwim? Not that I'm prudish, but I would laugh or be like "Ewwwww!" with my DH and that kinda defeats the purpose. Any suggestions?

OMGGGGGG, me tooooooo! My girls have to be there at 7:20am. It just kills me. I am so not a morning person. Plus, they are hardly awake at that hour, even though they go to bed at 9pm at the latest. My kids are super sleepers, and will sleep in till 9am on the weekends. And I have to leave work and pick them up and sit in what is, I swear, the longest and slowest carpool line on the planet. So looking forward to summer!

Lola, it was years ago, but when my DH and I were in our 20s (way before kids) we watched some porn one night (something we never do) and we ended up DTD'ing 4 times that night, and he didn't pull out any of those times....i was still in college and it freaked me out because I thought for sure we would have had an opps...anyway, it's one of those nights that look back on fondly, because it was sooooo out of the ordinary for us, and it was just kinda hot.

I def. think porn could be a great tool for a boy swayer...naturally get things roaring!

Thanks for the input! I've had a good experience like that also, but a couple of bad ones. It was pretty much the guy that was bad, though, LOL. I think it is good for boy swayers, especially when ttc gets monotonous!

Lola, thanks for the advice. I think we will find out though. DH really wants to know himself and I do too. I've just been thinking about it too much. I'm sorry you have to put your dog to sleep, it's so hard. We did it 5 months ago and it was awful

Then I think you are doing the right thing finding out. I honestly think I would too. And sorry to hear about your pup- it is awful. I got her when she was 8 weeks old and I was 22, and now I'm 36 and she really needs to be put down. Her back legs barely work anymore. I have to help her outside with a towel under her abdomen to support her legs. My vet keeps telling me that it's better to do it sooner than later so I don't have all of these memories of her suffering, so I know I need to do it soon. It's just that she is totally lucid and, as the vet put it, ok from the neck up. She knows me and is happy and all, and on painkillers, of course, but she is just old.

It's funny that the porn topic has come up now, im sure the boys talk about it freely, but it is a bit of a secret when it comes to the girls. DP and i actually did watch some last month to get things going, it wasn't planned, he was surfing his new iPhone and of course one of his mates had told him of a good free porn site to check out, i cant remember the name of it now, it was something like redtube. Anyway he showed me the page of videos he had found then asked me to pick one to watch, it was really smart of him to do it that way now i think about it, it gave me control over the situation and i didn't feel threatened by his choice, i actually chose the one with a good looking guy in it so it was eye candy for me too. And yes it definatly got us both warmed up and rearing to go make a baby
