just how exhausting lots of sex is?  my HUSBAND says he's starting to get tired.

Maybe you're not doing it right? ;)

Are you on top, or is he?

And remind him of this period 1-2 years from now :)

Get some coke, hours of fun

Fine, rub it in.  Wish it was a problem I had right now.

if you're both tired, you ARE doing it right.

as with any new cardio regime, performance improves explosively in the first few weeks.

Now, 'trying to get pregnant', I warned you about this.  Don't over-do it.  If you do, you'll get tired, you won't enjoy it as much, and his sperm count will drop -- you don't want that.

Take a day off to rest from time to time.

tired = bored.

a guy will never tire of interesting sex.

You're not married, are you Kenny?

Because, hard as it may be to believe, once a guy has had about three orgasms in one day, he does lose his interest in sex for awhile.  Some days, one really energetic bout will do it.  This doesn't mean he's "bored", it means he's satisfied.

I'd hate for you to become completely sexually satisfied, conclude you're bored, and end a valuable relationship.  Apparently people do this everyday, and I think it's a huge mistake.

He'll be away this weekend so we will definitely get a break.  I think the basic problem is the length and irregularity of my cycles, and the fact that we're normally once-or-twice-a-week people, not every-day or even every-other-day.

does he have an identical twin brother?

:)

ha.  It's not just him, I'm tired too.  Normal women would have tested for pregnancy by this point in their cycle (day 38).  I'm pretty sure I'm at least two weeks from the end of the cycle, maybe more, can't tell for sure.

Just have sex and stop trying to calculate when you should do it, etc.

Unless you've already experienced fertility problems, don't treat it as a project, for god's sake.  This should be a natural process.

AG, with me EVERYTHING is a project.

And besides, if we leave it up to nature it could take years.  I only get 6-8 cycles a year.

purple:  "Honey, we are going to have sex at 11:30PM.  Please be ready and don't masturbate beforehand!"

purple's husband: "Okay."

"And here, look at my boobies for 15 minutes or so, to get your sperm count up.  There ya go."

great startup idea : alarm clocks that say "wake up - it's SHAG TIME!"

LOL.  How does just looking at boobs improve sperm count?

lol, it's a bit more spontaneous than that.  and more than once a day is unusual, so I don't think sperm count is an issue.

Periodic, "unrequieted" arousal tends to get the man's juices prepared for flowing, so to speak.  At least, that's my experience.

This is true.

>>3 times a day

in this case tired = sore and bleeding.

so weird, having sex for the purpose making babies is such a foreign concept to me.

This whole thread is scary. I am too immature for this.
