Very bad timing

[liah]

Hi everyone
I am very frustrated and just need to talk. DF and i have been ttc for a few months now and we are not having much luck. DF works 12 hour shifts at his work 5 days on and 5 days off. And over the past few months every time i OV is during his 5 days on! I am curently at CD14 and just did the OV test and got a really strong line and guess what DF is only just started his 5 days on! There is no time for BD because the 1 hour a day i see him for the 5 days DS is awake. This is going to be a long trot i cam see it now :banghead:

Thanks for listening guys i feel a bit better :o

oh man, that is annoying, is there anyone that could take your ds for an hour so you can just sneak one in?

I was going to say the same as nuddle,my dh works 12 hour shifts 4 on 4 off and we try and get some time in between all of that and the 4 kids. I know that it is hard but good luck...:thumbsup:

sweetpea I feel bad for complaning now, i Only have 1, you have 4!!!! My hat is off to you :laughing:

Does anyone know when you do the ov test what is the time frame to BD in (DF last night at work for the 5 days is Monday) If that makes any sense at all. Or do you think we should just wait until next month?

Hey liah don't feel bad,it's just a case of timing and if the kids are willing to occupy themselves iykwim.....:laughing: I think from when you get the positive on the opk from what i have read the egg is released anywhere from 12 to 48 hours after that......correct me if i am wrong ladies?

Liah,

I know how you feel...

My DF works full-time afternoon shift (1400-2400), Monday and Friday, and is now temporarily working a 12 hour shift on Saturday nights as well (1800-0600)... so that means he is now at work every day of the week. On top of this, he is at TAFE doing a full-time course as well which means he gone from 8am every Mon, Tues and Thurs.

So as you can see, that leaves me only a couple of hours on a couple of days of week for me to see him. Now lets factor into this equation that I also work full-time night shift (2130-0730)...

There is no hope for us... ;)
