*Invision me SCREAMING and running around like a mad woman*

On top of all the confusion with my cycle, J has been ragging me about the fact that we're having to keep having sex until my temp shifts. In a sense he's making me feel like crap because my body isn't doing what it's supposed to do. Like I have ANY control over this! I just wanted to say, "Yes Dear, I'm holding my egg hostage until I've gotten all the sex I can handle for one lifetime." But honestly, I was too mad to say it because I didn't want to make him laugh. I wanted him to know just how mad I was at him. So after him fussing about my wacky cycle last night (basically there were 2 football games on that he wanted to watch, and he was inconvenienced by having to have sex) we still needed to have sex...he couldn't finish. Typical! That's the whole reason I decided at the last minute to do the IUI. I didn't want to fight about having to have sex several nights in a row. I didn't want to stress about this, and the only way to keep the stress level down was to have an IUI done. But when the IUI was too early the only shot we had at this working was to have sex like normal people. God forbid he have to do it a couple more times. He acted like it was going to kill him! I didn't realize sex with me was so bad for him. If I'd known how bad it was I would have quit this game a LONG time ago. I'm just so angry with him. I'm angry because I have been poked, prodded, cut on, I've taken several rounds of Clomid, now I'm taking the Met which has been VERY hard to handle, I've quit taking my arthritis meds and paid dearly for it lately, and ALL I've asked him to do was have sex a few extra times a month or go in a cup. That's it!!! And that's been too much for him to handle apparently. Last night I actually thought about leaving him. And quite honestly, I'm STILL having those thoughts. I couldn't even sleep in the same bed with him last night. I moved to the couch when he finally came to bed (once the games were over). I'm so glad he's going to be in Houston all next week. I need a break from him.

Oh, and by the way, I did have a temp shift this morning, but I have no idea if it's legit or not. J came to wake me up at 6:00 so we could get to church by 8:00, but I was too tired to go. Of course, despite the fact that I could feel the bags under my eyes without touching them, I couldn't go back to sleep. So I laid there for an hour just staring at the ceiling reliving the drama from last night. There's no telling if that temp shift is real or not. For all I know my temp shot up from all the fuming I did this morning. But you know what? I'm not about to ask J to have sex again today. I'm done! Screw this!!!

THis post just makes myheart hurt for you. If i could tell you how many times E and I have had THIS EXACT discussion, you would feel completely normal and sane.

I am ao sorry that TTC,sex, and all has come to this. It's miserable and it's demanding and many many other inconveniencing things. Emotions are high, tolerance is low ..Jhk, I am so sorry. i want to give you a giant hug!! Praying for you, I really am .. I know these feelings all too.

I am so sorry. We have these fights, too. Sometimes the hubby can't "finish" either. I'm so insulted when this happens.

Our last TTC sex, with my instructions, I told hubby to get the laptop, put in your porn with the head phones and take it in the bedroom. He was watching the porn during the sex and wasn't even looking at me or thinking about me when he "finished". I felt so gross afterwards.

At some point, I think we will go to a sex therapist, hopefully after this INF nightmare is over, because our sex life is shot to hell.

We still love each other though. And I know you and J do, too.

I think my IUI was too early as well, but I'm hanging my hat on the fact that they can live in there for a super long time, and its good for them to be hanging out in there before ovulation.

Big hug to you and sending you all my good thoughts.

This stuff is so hard. You know we all know how you feel. We females go through SOOOOOO much. And while yes we realize having baby-making-sex can be somewhat inconvenient, it is certainly nothing near what we go through. I've read this sentiment soooo many times on soooo many blogs. I'm so sorry this is so hard for all of us. Warmest hugs to you.

Wanna, I am so glad you have these women that are going through the same thing, or at least have been there where you are right now. My heart just ached for you as I read this post. I know you love J...just like I love C...we all (over many different things) have those thoughts of "I want out of this!" from time to time. Let these women be an encouragement to you and think back on the days before all this TTC...remember the love you had for J then and cling to that! There are many days I picture C on one of those swings at UMHB and remember when.... Sometimes I have to go "there" and be reminded of the love.

I love you dear friend...email or call if you want!

I have been there, I understand, you are normal,and things will get better. Hubbo and I have had many "fights" about how TTC sex sucks everything else into a vortex. I think the main issues are despite their good qualities men are selfish and they just don't get all the TTC stuff. I encourage communication, it's the only thing that truly works.Hugs
