Hi, I'm new to the forum but already having issues! Me and husband got married in March this year. Husband decided on honeymoon that he would love to have a baby as he feels ready. I came off the pill at the beginning of June and have been attempting to track my ovulation (probably too early I know especially when I've been on the pill since I was 17 and am 33 now). I have no idea what my normal period is like or how long it lasts etc. According to an app I downloaded, Period Tracker Lite, I am currently in my fertile window with ovulation likely to be tomorrow. Looking at the signs (cervical mucus), my body seems to be on track but I know this might be completely wrong so soon after coming off the pill.
Anyway, since coming off the pill I've been like a raging sex beast! Always seem to want to have sex. This is a complete change as both me and my husband had relatively low sex drives for the 4 years we've been together. When I mean low, I mean maybe once every few months! Now I'm off the pill I want sex every day. Husband jokingly comments that it's all I go on about now. Since my pill period ended, we've had sex 4 times - he said it felt like a lot more. I'm now trying to make it happen during my supposed fertile window so we have a better chance at getting pregnant.
He always seems to make an excuse as to why we can't have sex though - too tired, just ate, just woke up, too sore etc. He doesn't know about my fertile window as I'd rather it not be a big deal considering as we're just starting out and I don't know definite days yet. But if he doesn't want sex, how are we going to get pregnant?! We don't tend to argue much but I'm getting so frustrated at the lack of sex to the extent that it's making me angry, which he gets the brunt of. He tells me the best time for him is mornings - I attempted to wake him up with a BJ to get the ball rolling, he stops me and tells me he's too sore (we had sex last night). So what am I supposed to do if his fail safe method doesn't work either? I could understand if we had sex every day but so far it's been a couple of times a week ago and a couple of times this weekend.
