I was thinking ahead (as I too often do) to our next cycle to see what we might be able to do differently. One worry I've had this time, is since our only successful day was day 13, 2 days before ovulation, and he's been needing the little blue pill to get that far...well, could the little swimmers have been a bit stale? How to bring this up?
Warning. Graphic content ahead.
Me: "So, one thing I've been thinking about for our next cycle is, uh...making sure that you have...a fresh supply. Um, so whether or not we get it on a few days before, or you take matters into your own hands, I think we should pay attention to that"I wanted to get it out there in case he needs to take a pill even by himself. I don't know how these things work!
Hubby: "Oh, I've been taking care of that. No need to worry. That's why I always ask you what day it is around day 8 or 9."
Me: "Oh, ok, that's great. I'm glad you are paying attention... So, do you need to take your pill for that?"
Hubby: "No. I'm good. See, on my own, I don't use any lotion or anything. So I get a lot of friction..."
Some background... for my last few IUIs, the nurse has taken one look, and said, "wow, you are VERY ovulatory." How does she know...by my abundance, and I do mean abundance of ewcm. She's even had to clean it out of the way before inserting the catheter.
Hubby: "and with you honey... it's like fucking jello."
Glad we can laugh about it.
Oh my god, that's hilarious. See these are the conservations those boring fertile couples never get to have. Who would want to miss out on that??
