Pull yourself together, man!

Today, I've stopped smoking, lost 30 pounds, taken several painful tests, and checked my ovulation daily in an effort to get pregnant. My husband has only had one task during the entire process, and after hours of gaming, he says he's just too tired to have sex. FML

Sorry OP. Those are awesome achievements and they say a lot about your character and devotion. Hopefully you will be a mother soon! Good luck with your husband!

Some people do change after having a kid, that's true. However, quite a few don't, and to put a child in a potentially less than desirable situation with an uninvolved, uncaring father, that's just very unfair to the kid.

My fiancé was the same way. Turned out the reason we couldn't have a baby was cuz he'd **********, beforehand in order to last longer. He thought that sperm just refilled. Finally pregnant now. Good luck to you.

Maybe he dont want to have kids, you should really ask him and dont give up untill you have a definitive answer. Its not worth either of your time if you want different tings.

The more you want it, (pregnancy), the less likely it will happen

If you want a kid so badly just buy one like the celebrities do.

How can you rationalize to yourself that you deserve to get sex from him whenever YOU want it just because of changes you made to yourself and you're trying to get pregnant. Today, in an attempt to fertilize my wife, I stopped smoking, ate a lot of protein and pineapples, took a viagra, and had tests done to make sure I was fertile. The only task my wife was asked to do was to let me cum in her to get pregnant and apparently after her cross fit class she's "too tired". FML Double standards are ****** crazy.

OP never stated she was demanding or ordering her husband to have sex with her whenever she wanted. Read the fml and stop talking hypothetically and using the double standard. Make an argument about this fml and this situation. Until a man with a similar situation posts a story similar to this, then can you make the argument about that mans wife not wanting to have sex for whatever reason. Read the part about the husband having one task which he was avoiding during the entire process. DURING THE ENTIRE PROCESS. Not just one night or time. Many times. This isn't just sex to satisfy OP's needs, OP is trying to get pregnant to have a child.

Maybe this is his way of saying he's not ready for a kid

Sounds like a passive aggressive way of saying "You might want a child, but I don't and you can't make me"...

Damn that's a lot that you did today. Who cares about your husband? Sure God created everything in a week but you stopped smoking and lost 30 lbs in a day. You deserve some kind of award or like a Sunday-type day ?

Of course I'm being very sarcastic but regardless you really should be proud of yourself for doing all that stuff to better your life, whether it was in a day or not

Okay, here's what I think. He may just not be in the mood (surprise surprise we don't feel like doing it all the time) and thinks that excuse would make him Better off than him telling you no not right now. You both gotta be in the mood for this to work. It's possible to get him in the mood, just work him up a bit, but sometimes he may just not want to. However, if he does this constantly for nearly a week or something, than straight up confront him, don't yell or anything, just confront him. Though still be very, very pissed. A quiet angry woman is a lot scarier than a loud one.
