DH is freaking hilarious (possibly TMI)
So, DH and I have decided to try Natural Family Planning (taking my temp every morning, tracking my fertility) to NOT get pg right now, and so we are fully aware of my cycle when it is time to TTC.
So, I went to Borders today and picked up a book about it (Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Ton Weshler) and stopped at CVS to pick up a basal thermometer. We are sitting here and I'm looking through everything and setting up a sheet to track my temp each day and I tell him how I'll need to take my temperature in the morning before I get out of bed. He goes "so, you take your temp by putting that thermometer in your vagina?"
Um...no. It goes in my mouth. Maybe he should read the book when I'm done?
Re: DH is freaking hilarious (possibly TMI)
Something about taking my temp vaginally freaks me out...I'll stick to oral
.
Munkii - seriously...you should have seen his face! I wish I was faster on my feet and had said something funny back to him...
Katie - That freaks me out. Was your mom doing the rhythm method or NFP/FAM?

Says my husband:
"I would have asked the same thing."
*SIIIIIIIGH*
Where do we find theys guys? lol
They used NFP until my brother came along. He was #4. Then they decided that their sanity (and finances) were worth the wrath of the Vatican. :-)
ACTUALLY, out of the four of us only one (my immediately younger brother) was deliberately planned, but with my sister and I, they wanted a kid, just weren't "trying" when we came along.
Hilarious- love it! I decided to go off the pill at the end of November (it completely destroyed my sex drive- and what good is 99% effectiveness when you don't want sex anyways?). We're switching to condoms and charting my cycle as well (except I plan on using the cervical mucus method). I've heard a ton of people recommend that book- I may just have to pick myself up a copy.
*sigh* Poor husbands. But they try... when I started explaining the cervical mucus thing to DH he got this squeamish look on his face, like I was asking him to touch a dead animal or something. I stopped talking and said, "What?" and he said, "Nothing... go ahead," but wouldn't take that look off his face the entire time. Geez, what are they going to be like when they actually have to deal with birth and delivery and diapers?
