Why don't I just RELAX? (aka - WTF DH?)

Okay, seriously, I've lost it.  It's taken me 16 months of TTC, but I've finally snapped.  I've been surprised to get negative OPKs for the past week, but I felt like today was my day.  CM is getting in gear, and I knew the hormones were flowing when I was super turned on by the bald gay guy at my neighborhood meeting tonight.  Got home, tested and yay - positive OPK!!!

Cue my dumbbutt DH.  I cooked his favorite dinner.  I was completely into him all evening.  I pulled out my best moves!  I even did the dishes so he could relax.  And what did he do??  He fell asleep in the chair!  I know he's been battling a cold all week but come on.  I woke him up to go upstairs and he started complaining about his knee, then his elbow, then he started coughing.  And then he announced he was going to take a hot bath to feel better.  I tried to convince him that sex before bath would be fun (hey, let me have the sperm before he kills them in the bathwater), but NO.  Finally, I just snapped.  I reminded him that it took me 7 long months of working out, eating right and popping metformin just to ovulate.  Then, when I finally did O in early Oct., he was on the other side of the country.  Now, I've had to wait another 6 weeks to get CLOSE to O, and he's out of commission.  His reaction, "Baby, you just need to relax.  Stop all this and just RELAX."

Ladies, I ask you - should I kill him now or see if I can seduce him in the morning?

I'd kill him now and then seduce the bald guy in the morning. Haha.

Morning.  Then let him have it.  

You have waited too long to let this O go. He will pay later.

Ladies, I love y'all.  I was so nervous about posting this because to get flamed for posting super personal stuff would be mortifying!  However, your responses have me dying.

I told DH he has a reprieve till morning courtesy of the bump ladies, but only because I'm pretty sure bald gay guy's boyfriend is prettier than me.

You're funny, I like you. You won't get flamed much if you're funny. Also, it's really hard to overshare with these hors.

I would be frustrated and annoyed too. Let's just hope you two can squeeze a quickie in tomorrow morning!  

Congrats to my TTC/labor buddy AndyYouGoonie! Can't wait to meet baby Goonie.
My son is so cool Baby Pandas are awesome!

So true!  Love that you used Sheldon.  DH's family and friends call him Sheldon because he is so much like him.

So, curious minds want to know. Did you bite his head off, let him have a freebie or went full on praying mantis on him?

I totally understand. I had a similar meltdown when I got a +OPK last year and H was not into it.

I hope you got your bang on this morning!


TTC since October 2011.
DX with Non-IR PCOS in October 2012.
Missing RIGHT tube due to a prior surgery to remove cyst-zilla (40 lbs!) at age 12.
HSG showed tube was blocked - cleared by dye. DON'T DO CLOMID WITHOUT AN HSG!
Cycle #8 with 50mg Clomid & TI = BFN
Cycle #9 with 50mg Clomid & TI = No response.
Cycle #10 with Clomid 100mg + Ovidrel shot = BFN
Cycle #11 is a break cycle. Cycle #12 is a break cycle. (The break so nice, she did it twice!)
