Question

Since we started TTC my hubby is having occasional trouble "performing". I'm not angry about it at all, even if it is always in the fertile period. He's angry and frustrated, but insists that he still wants to know when I'm in my fertile window, etc. we do use Preseed, and he's commented that it makes him less sensitive - but this has happened without it. How have you ladies handled this situation?

Answer

Thanks so much for your suggestions. We have a solid honesty rule in our relationship, and he -wants- to know when I'm ovulating. He's the one that encouraged me to start opks etc. due to my irregular cycles. That's what makes it so hard - I think he puts the pressure on himself! I've suggested just having sex every other day and tracking be damned, but he'd rather know. Maybe we'll ditch the Preseed and try coconut oil to see if that helps.

Answer

Same thing happens with my hubby when I put too much pressure on it. I've found just doing it every 2-3 days helps, plus you're still bound to catch the egg :) then on the day I know I'm ovulating I don't even tell him as to not stress him out, I just make the move. 😉

Answer

Just tell him to just enjoy the experience regardless of fertile time or not. Adds pressure even if they deny it. They fear they may let u down and then that gets to their head.

Answer

Lie about fertile week...lol. Also, my hubby doesn't like the preseed either. Coconut oil works better for us and I got pregnant the month we ditched preseed and used coconut oil. Sadly we miscarried and are trying again, this time in a more relaxed way! Good luck!

Answer

Idk I wouldn't tell him when I was fertile. It kind of puts more pressure on them to be the sex God haha so I'd just pounce him without saying anything beforehand :)
