No, but I do know that it was total guilt sex, isn't that awful? We had been back from our cruise and hasn't had sex in 5 days (and of course on our cruise it was like 2x/day/everyday). When it dawned on me that night that it had been 5 days, I was like "Oh crap, I gotta give it up tonight." I did not think I had even O'd that month, but clearly I did.
I went back through my social media and we had a date night and we posted a picture of of our drinks at a nice restaurant bar. mmmmmm Champagne. I miss champagne.
I don't know for sure which "day" it was; it was totally non-spontaneous. I was charting, and we were having TI EOD during my FW. No way to know for sure whether it was O-4 (Wed), O-2 (Fri), or O (Sun).
That weekend was not very convenient timing, because we were visiting my parents, so it was Friday night right before we left and Sunday night right when we got back. Kind of perfunctory; not much of a story. At least we won't be embarrassing Hobbes someday with tales of how he was a souvenir from our trip to Hawaii (a month earlier)!
We saw Harry Potter at midnight after sex earlier that night. I was tracking and there was only one day that lined up well. We had sex again the next day so either way it was around when we saw Harry Potter haha
With DS we were taking a break from ttc and only had sex once that month so yes I remember it- we didn't do anything special that day. Except dh did say "should we use a condom?" And I said "no it hasn't been happening anyway so it's fine!" Haha

I charted for awhile trying to have "perfect" timing. Then we went to Europe, I didn't bother brining the thermometer and we just had tons of vacation sex and a bfp to show for it. I have no idea what day.
I have already purchased London and Paris onsies ;-) and plan on having some other little nods in the nursery.
I'm not exactly sure which day was *the* day, but I'm fairly certain. The only reason I remember what was goin on that day is because I was really looking forward to a day to myself as I had the day off but H did not and H called in sick and I was irritated at him for ruining my plans for my day of ebeth. Not so irritated that I refused/didn't initiate sex but irritated nonetheless.
I think some people just make it up when it conveniently falls within a certain time frame so they don't have to talk about the bathroom quickie.
See- this is what we were going for! I'm pretty sure this is the night I got pregnant, based on all factors involved. (We had been trying for 6 months, and this was the only time we had "middle of the night sex" which may have made the difference in terms of catching the egg.)
We were going to a wedding and since I was charting, knew it should be right around ovulation time. I'm reaaaallllyy not a fan of the groom (friend of DH) and figured since we were kid-free for the night, we should just try to knock one out in the bathroom. Except the bathroom was like a revolving door with people coming in and out, so we couldn't even discreetly sneak in. So instead, we ended up having sex after the wedding.
DH was in NYC for work that whole week and I was supposed to meet him there Friday night. I took that Friday off and called the airline to see if I could fly standby on an earlier flight and I got in. I knew I was ovulating and we has missed almost the entire fertility window because of his trip, so I jumped on him as soon as I saw him.
Then we went to dinner and a great time the rest of the weekend.
Let's see... Well, the day we conceived, we were in a hotel room in Houston. DH went in a cup. We drove to the RE's office with the cup between my boobies. I was hungry and a little woozy due to being NPO and taking a Valium. We gave them the cup, they brought me back to a room when it was time, started an IV and put me under. Best fucking nap ever! I woke up about an hour later, then we went and I had a huge brunch. Then we went home. Neither of us were in the same room where sperm met egg, ha.
Then 5 days later, I was in stirrups while one of my teeny babies was placed into my ute with a big syringe and catheter and an ultrasound. At least DH was in the same room and holding my hand here.
So yea, pretty vividly. Lol. I remember the name of every person involved with my son's conception, except for the CRNA who gave me the best nap ever.

I always say I never thought conceiving my baby would involve keeping a vial of my H's semen warm in my cleavage!
Our baby was conceived in an exam room of a Boston hospital, the same one I'll deliver in. H took pics of the catheter in the trash as I laid there after the IUI and we laughed like idiots. I don't think that will make it into the baby book! We also had a nice brunch, but it was while they were washing the sperm. It was easy to go out from the hospital and back since it was a Sunday.
For DD we had sex on the couch after DH had been away on a guy's weekend. He was hella hungover. #romantic
For DS who is due any minute, DH was informed that he was being transferred to the U.S. so we immediately started having unprotected sex that night so I could be on Mat leave for part of his placement (I can't get a work visa). I missed my next period - soooo lucky!
Working backwards from my due date, I think it was the last day of our vacation. Dh and I were "packing" while ds1 was being entertained by my parents.

We had a chemical pregnancy in early October and then skipped a month due to my friend's wedding/doctor's advice. When I next O'd in late November DH was deathly sick and I had been avoiding going near him for a week or so. He still wanted to try that month even though he had been put on antibiotics so we had the least romantic non-kissing sex ever twice. One of those times worked.

I'm not sire this time, but for my last CO H and I were both sick during most of my FW. He woke me up at 4 am one day because he was feeling better, I figured why not, but the kid was in our bed (he was sick too) so we had sex on the landing of the staircase.
pooh8402 You are not kidding about the best nap ever, that was seriously the best day of sleep I've ever gotten lol!! Whatever drugs they use, they're good.
they used propofol for me--I asked. it's commonly used in ICU to keep a patient sedated, and ER/OR/cath lab for moderate sedation procedures. a patient is sedated, can't feel pain, can't remember anything, but can breathe on their own and depending on the level of sedation, can even respond to questions. anesthesiologists and nurses like it because it reverses very quickly--as in, the patient wakes up quickly once the drip is stopped.
I wouldn't mind have a couple mLs of that once in a while when I'm having trouble sleeping, lol.
It was the day of H's office Christmas party. He and I were put in charge of planning it. I went to the site in the morning with his boss's wife to set up the decorations and review everything with the caterer. Then I went home, got dressed, went back, we partied. You know the rest.
