It's early days on our TTC journey, I came off the pill end Dec.
We've never been a couple that are at it like rabbits. In fact over the last year or so I've been battling depression which zapped my sex drive. I'm feeling a lot better and we decided to try for a baby.
My DP in the past sometimes suffered from delayed ejaculation, in that he can be hard but not come, this can go on for ages until we just have to give up. It's used to happen once in a while but since we have been TTC, there seems to be a problem every time we have sex. Either he can't come, or the latest was that he couldn't get an erection at all. This has NEVER happened to him before.
We had a long talk and he admitted he watches porn and masturbates daily, which means he finds orgasm through sex more difficult, I get that masturbation is healthy and normal but the amount is excessive so he agreed to not masturbate at all for a while to see if we can kick start our sex life a bit.
I thought he'd get so horny that I'd be fighting him off but this has not happened. I feel like I'm always the one that initiates sex and he's always too tired and turns me down.
I bought some sexy undies and stuff and just generally made. Abut of an effort to try to bring the fun back into it.
I'm trying to keep everything really relaxed and understand that there is pressure on him now we are trying but I'm also really worried, I have PCOS and am pretty sure conception won't be easy anyway, let alone if we can't actually manage to have sex.
I'm really trying to stay calm and make it fun but its like he's over thinking everything and making it impossible for himself to enjoy sex
Any advice really appreciated!
