Not going through it now (I barely know what DTD is now!) but I do remember that phase. It's so hard, and the pressure makes it really tough. I tried so hard to pretend, and in my last cycle I had really just about convinced myself that we weren't really trying. I did stuff like buying huge boxes of tampons, and strapless bras, and booking into trips that I wouldn't be able to do if we were successful. I partied like a 20 year old. I didn't talk to DH about my cycle any more, although I was still temping, because I really wanted to take the pressure off him. If he asked, I told him, but he didn't ask much. We were emotionally exhausted, so we turned to fraud. It worked.
I'm not suggesting that emotional fraud will work for you... but I know it is so hard, and DTD does stop being fun, no matter how much you try. Will hurl some baby dust high into the sky, and hopefully it lands on you.
