TTC sex feels so much different tha regular sex?

Question

So me and my husband are officially trying to conceive our second child starting this month I am on CD #5, my period ended yesterday and we just started having sex everyday. Today I told him before he went to work we had to have sex and it was strange...there was a anxiety in the air and urgency that has never been there before. 
Anyone else feel this?
Its strange, I tried so hard to get my orgasm and when I did afterwards all I could do was hold my mouth shut from laughing (anxiety I think) but of course I didn't laugh because I didn't want it to throw off his orgasm because that's what we needed.

I'm new to TTC sex, but it honestly feels different. My whole life I have tried not to get pregnant and so it just feels so strange to have sex with the intent of procreating. Im so excited but weirded out too. Any people in this strange territory?

Answer

Better off not telling ur so when ur ovulation and best time and everything. The first month I didn't mention any ttc we ended up pregnant. I think it's to much for men to Handel lol

Answer

It feels sooo different and strange. My husband and I have been together for 15 years (high school sweethearts) and for 15 years we have actively avoided pregnancy. Now that we're TTC, it feels like a completely different experience.

Answer

Honestly I think that's what takes a LOT of couples so long to conceive...you can't over think it...why do you think accidental pregnancies seems so easy....and for those who 'give up' and get pre go the same month. Me and my husband with our first tried for 11 months and the 12th month we moved 2 different times and were constantly going and guess what...we got pregnant that month lol....DON'T OVER THINK IT LADYS.... best advice I could give anyone TTC...

Answer

I am in the same boat. Sex has kind of lost the romance. It is still a ton of fun but now it feels like I have to make him do it and I get upset if we aren't having sex. It is very weird after avoiding getting pregnant for like 13 years that now we are really TTC. I can't help but have the "what if we can't get pregnant" thoughts....My husband is sure every time we BD that he got me pregnant lol.

Answer

My husband gets so irritated when it feels like a job and he just doesn't want to do it even though we both want to have a baby. He doesn't like watching me use the preseed for the same reason. It makes him nervous and puts him under pressure. So we don't talk about actual baby making anymore. We just let things go naturally instead. I worry about temping and using my opks and when I know it's time, I just get things started for us. It's better that way for us.

Answer

I did not enjoy TTC sex, only the first day and that's it, it was stressful. We both loved sex before TTC!

Answer

I've noticed sex seems different since we started TTC. Mostly for me I've noticed my sex drive has been crazy since I went off birth control (like I went from wanting to do it like twice a week to wanting it twice a *day*). We've been trying for a few months, and I haven't really been telling my husband when my fertile window is, we've just decided this month to do it at least every day (twice a day if we feel like it) to maximize our chances. Fingers crossed!

Answer

Hey!

Yes this is the same for us. We have been trying for 6 months now. And each month when it comes to actually bding it's almost like a chore we are both basically like " here we are again... Let's do it "

I miss the romantic sex and the random sex where we both want to do it an random times. But it's all about timing when Ttc so u just gotta suck it up if u want that baby haha

Answer

Just FYI- You don't have to have sex every day if you don't want to .. Lol . It's actually better to do every other day because it'll let his sperm build up. Have you tried opk? You can focus on making sure you have sex those days and the rest of the cycle you can do it spontaneously and have more fun and romance. Lol

Answer

And that I it happeneds if you cycle is short and already like that. Most people ovulate around CD 14, do like I said good luck in not burning yourself out. You could be doing it like this for months.
