When your DH definition of "trying" is different than your own.
My DH said "ok im ready. Lets try for a baby." Finally.
My definition is 1) go to the Dr and ob. Start taking prenatials. Buy preseed to give ebverything a boost. Start taking my temp, checking my cm and cp, start peeing on opk sticks and bd every other day until were pregnant because i have no idea when i ovulate. Also start using apps for prediction and bd more when it suggests because it can't hurt.
DH definition of trying... stop using bc (we were just using pull out so i dont have to adjust to different hormones)... and bd whenever. But not on days he has sports.. or days when he's tired or ate too much. If i say "hun this is the window week" we end up bd once if that.. not 3-4 times.
So frustrating. I can't go to the dr in 6 months for an opinion if i know for a fact we were "trying" at the wrong time or not enough at the right time.
Anyone have thoughts. I have asked if he can make more time during the window but i dont think he gets how important timing is. Were only 2 cycles down but both were "trying not trying" which hurts a lot.
