I thought I was going to ovulate early because of clomid, but I was mistaken. I am at CD 18 with a temp of 97.41. We have been BDing daily since CD 10...I am worn out!! I know this sounds horrible, but I am so tired of having sex marathon's because we are trying to make a baby. Our sex life has changed dramatically over the last year. It feels so forced and planned. We have tried to mix it up and try new things but after a year its hard. I hate this!! I want to get pregnant for obvious reasons, but also so we can have a normal sex life again.
The past few days DH has been asking me if I have EWCM and what my temp is. We talked about how sad it is that he knows more than most men about ovulation because we have been trying so long/hard to get pregnant. I want to be normal again!!
I am hoping for a temp rise tomorrow so that this marathon can be over.......

Oh hun, I'm so sorry! I know exactly how you feel. I hate the sex marathons. It seems like there is too much pressure and not enough enjoyment. I really hope you O soon! Keeping you in my prayers!
I hear ya sister! We took a break from charting for 2 months and the sex was great but in the back of both our minds we knew my cycle so well that we BD a lot during the supposed time! What drives me nuts is when I estimate O'ing and we look at our schedules and I have this going and he has that going and so on! It really does but a different spin on things!
I'm sorry :-( There are days when I don't think things will ever get back to normal.
Hope you O soon, so that you guys can take a break.
I love how you call it a sex marathon. That is exactly what it is to us too. I've been off the pill for over a year now. Without meds I ovulate around CD 16 - CD 18. On Clomid I still ovulated around CD 16 - CD 18. On Follistim (injectables) I ovulated on CD 11, CD 15 and CD 16 -- 3 different cycles! I guess we will always ovulate later in our cycles. I hate having longer cycles because it means longer waits.
Stick with the sex marathons though. It will be worth it if you get a BFP. But I completely understand because I've been there, done that.
Hey -- just read your IF timeline. If we do IVF next month I'll be having a Hysteroscopy soon. Do you have a post about your Hysteroscopy experience? Do I need to be concerened about mine? I had an HSG in December and it wasn't bad at all.
Also I really hope you get a BFP this month!
The sex marathons are crazy! I hope that your temps went up or go up soon so you can confirm ovulation and get a break!
