As the holidays approach, so does the seasons of the baby conception boom. This means that there will be a lot of baby making sex going on in the next few months. Obviously the fact that the conception rates peak indicate that most people find a way to make it happen, but I was talking to a friend recently who was exasperated at trying to get pregnant, dealing with secondary infertility and seemingly always traveling to a relatives house on the "right" days of the month for a holiday or something else.
She lamented that she and her partner just couldn't have sex in the room where she grew up. For every solution I threw out, she had a counter-argument. It was actually a light hearted conversation, but it does hold some serious implications.
It made me realize my friend wasn't alone when I saw this from Bat Sheva Marcus:
"So what if the guest room is right next-door and the kids are all watching a video in the adjoining room? You're up to the challenge. You and your partner make a total silence pact. No noise, no moaning or groaning, no calling out names. Turn all the lights off, make the room as dark as you can and try for a completely silent tryst. It may make you smile for days."
So that begs the question, how do you do the deed if you're not at home and your ovulation prediction kit is signaling that it's the right time?
