Ok this is probably super weird but I’m just feeling in an emotional pickle and looking for support or advice.

My partner has struggled with performance anxiety since we started TTC#2. Any other time of the month he’s fine but as soon as we enter the fertile window he has trouble getting and maintaining an erection. I’ve tried not telling him the fertile window but I think he can just sense/tell by my behavior (we’ve been together 14 years).

We were both raised very Christian/conservative and have some ingrained subconscious thoughts around sex/masturbation/porn etc so I think that plays into it too. This month we decided to try a recommendation from someone on here to just get him as close as possible to ejaculation then I come in at the last minute. It worked twice during the fertile window, one time with him using stimulating images to get to that point.

I guess I’m feeling a little guilty that if we conceive this time that our baby wasn’t made in some magical love making situation. That it was super “factory” and just to get the job done. Idk why I have that bias, but I guess I’m looking for support from anyone who may have been in a similar situation.

Using Oh Crap method and starting soon. Might be a stupid question but I can’t find the answer in the book.

Do you put jammies on LO during night/nap training if you’re doing Block 1 (naked)?

Having terrible luck finding a charging station that actually works and our house does not have a home charger installed quite yet. Any recs on best place to charge? We have an IONIQ 5

Went in for a routine well woman exam and they told me a was positive for Group B strep. I was not positive for it my first pregnancy and everything was fine. I have a few questions if anyone knows the answers.

1. Will having this in my vaginal canal harm TTC or harm the potential baby conceived?

2. Doc is prescribing me antibiotics. Are these necessary to take? I’d rather not destroy my microbiome if GBS is not harmful to my current life.

3. What happens if I just leave it be? If I hadn’t gone in for the appt I would have never known I had it.
